Under Charlie’s Covers has closed but there are still other local bookstores to check out such as Bookish & the Friendshop! We’re grateful for the support they gave us when we first started & they will be missed! ✨

Today is our LAST DAY! We have been a community for 17 years. It's been an absolute pleasure spending time with all of you, getting to know you, talking about books and life. We will miss you. Check out Bookish on the west side and The Friendshop in Rio Rancho to feed your reading fix. Thank you for your support all of these years!

Your very own New Mexico Poet Laureate will be in the building, bringing so much Cultura, Magic and Energy in the form of Poetry.

About your feature: Celebrated poet and cultural advocate Manuel González has been named the third New Mexico State Poet Laureate, a recognition that affirms his profound contributions to the literary arts and his enduring impact on New Mexico’s communities. Appointed by New Mexico Arts and the New Mexico State Library, divisions of the Department of Cultural Affairs, González will begin his three-year term effective immediately. González’s appointment marks the continuation of a powerful legacy rooted in poetry as a vehicle for healing, empowerment, and cultural memory. A former Albuquerque Poet Laureate (2016–2018), González is widely respected not only for his artistry on the page and stage, but also for his unwavering commitment to community and justice.
