"Allow us to introduce you to the king and queen of DIY..." - Redbook


Richmond-based authors, bloggers and DIY-pioneers Sherry and John Petersik have been kind enough to sign copies of their amazing new book, Young House Love, and these signed copies are now for sale at Chop Suey Books.

Gretchen Rubin, author of the bestseller The Happiness Project, calls Young House Love "engaging, packed with gorgeous photos, and reassuringly realistic about both budget and skill level... [It] will inspire even the most un-crafty of homeowners to pry open a can of paint."

Books On Wheels

Founded in February of 2007, Books On Wheels is definitely Richmond's best free book/free bike repair non-profit agency. With a fleet of 2 semi-functioning school buses, Books On Wheels is a mobile organization that gives away thousands of books and fixes hundreds of bikes a year. Their events usually take place in the Richmond area, but the buses have carried them as far north at Chicago, and as far south as Austin. They just returned from their third visit to New Orleans, and are "gearing" up for a summer of great events. They are always accepting donations of childrens' books and bikes of any size, all of which can be dropped off at Chop Suey Books. If you have any interest in hosting a Books On Wheels event, please contact them at booksonwheelsrva@yahoo.com.
