Never Enough: When Achievement Culture Becomes Toxic—and What We Can Do About It by Jennifer Breheny Wallace explores the harmful effects of a high-pressure achievement culture on young people and offers strategies for parents and educators to combat it. The book argues that the relentless pursuit of success, driven by societal pressures and economic anxieties, is negatively impacting children's mental health and well-being.
We love books, and we love to share books with others! Our bookstore's mission is to build community around books. Though we don’t have a brick and mortar, YET, we were at the Salida Farmers’ Market in the summer and fall, at the holiday market in early winter, and have community reading and author events all year round. Check out our Events Page for details.
We support authors residing in and visiting Salida and the surrounding region. We have hosted Ted Conover, Ben Goldfarb, Pam Houston, and many more local authors at the Farmers’ Market.
We are always open for books (even though we don't have a brick & mortar yet). We can arrange a pick up or deliver. In addition, we have a page on Bookshop.org, which supports our business and delivers right to you! You can purchase audio books through us on libro.fm.
Keep us in mind for all your book needs. We have been enjoying this new venture.
Let’s Talk Books,
