Want to read the hottest, most controversial literature on the shelf?
The Graphic Novel Club will meet each month to discuss a different author/ artist's work. Join facilitator Justin Pfefferle in a vigorous discussion of this rich and diverse literary medium.
Are graphic novels purely commercialism, or a unique and stimulating view of our culture? Intelligent and heated discussions will be encouraged.

The Muggle Mixer was primarily a success because of volunteers. People who haven't worked at the store for 5 years, along with their children, came to make it work. Harry Potter launches at McNally Robinson are about people having fun and without those volunteers, it would have been a far less exciting affair, and far more chaotic.
We estimate that 3500 people went through the store Friday night between 10:00pm and 1:30am. Others merely came by the tent outside to pick up their copy of the book and slipped away, but there was no way to quantify the overlap.
