EVENTS COORDINATOR
Are you book obsessed, detail oriented, gregarious, organized, and proactive at problem solving?
Do you want to meet the authors who are your heroes?
We’re looking for an experienced Events Coordinator to join Wolfe & Kron Books and help us grow our Workshops, Book Clubs, Community Activities. This really does mean everything from some naarishkeit like bedazzling horseshoe crabs, to organizing and coordinating a multi-author event complete with panels and dinners. The sky is the limit and our customers expect us to deliver the unexpected.
Order Books online and Support our store through Bookshop.org
Despite our ever so tall shelves, we still can’t fit all the books we want to stock at the store.
Luckily, we have Bookshop.org for all your online ordering needs and the proceeds from book sales go to indie bookstores like us.
Yes, for reals.
Even better, if you choose us when you “Choose a Bookstore” on their site, we get the whole sale, as opposed to that money being shared out equally to all indie bookstores.
We’ve created some lists of books we love, so take a gander, order a book or two, and they’ll be delivered right to your door!
Did we mention they have eBooks too?
Sign up for our newsletter where we’ll announce updates and get the first word on special events
That’s everything from Book Sales to Author Events, as well as Book Clubs and Calls for ARC Readers!

SPECULATIVE fiction
is our specialty
We have a curated assortment of just about everything, be it Poetry or Memoirs, Pop-Science, the Classics, or Literature. But our true love is Genre Fiction, particularly Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Speculative Fiction, and Mystery.
Yes, we love our Romance (and Romantasy),Manga, Thrillers, Horror, and everything else in between, but our hearts belong to the dragons and the stars are ever our destination.
Looking for something specific, maybe that particular edition with the cover art you remember?
Or maybe you can’t remember the author –or title– but have a vague recollection of the storyline?
We LOVE that kind of challenge, so send it our way!
