Santoro's Books is Greenwood's all-new, full-service, independent bookstore. We offer an excellent selection of new books and old favorites, a rental library for books and audio books, frequent buyer discounts and discounts on book club selections and school orders. Special ordering from us is fast and reliable. Just send us an e-mail with your requests. We're always happy to make reading suggestions and encourage you to enjoy a browse through our store.

Santoro's is now open and ready for business in our new location! Thanks to everyone who turned out to help us move. We were able to move ALL the books in record time - 45 minutes. By 4:00 PM on Friday all the books were shelved in their proper places. We can't thank you enough for your support. We were able to open the bookstore two days ahead of schedule.
Our new address is 7405 Greenwood Ave. North. The phone number will not change. We are located next door to the 74th Street Ale House - just one block north of our old location. We hope you'll visit us soon!

Quote of the Month:
This month's quote comes from one of our most recent book club selections and describes the main character in the ecstatic act of doing research:

"He was still at the blissful stage of collecting his material; and many good young people considered it a treat and an honor to see Pnin pull out a catalogue drawer from the comprehensive bosom of a card cabinet and take it, like a big nut, to a secluded corner and there make a quiet mental meal of it, now moving his lips in soundless comment, critical, satisfied, perplexed, and now lifting his rudimentary eyebrows and forgetting them there, left high upon his spacious brow where they remained long after all trace of displeasure or doubt had gone."

~Vladimir Nabokov from his novel Pnin
