What does Judging by the Cover Bookstore do?

Judging By The Cover: A Bookstore aims to be Fresno's premier destination for progressive literature, catering to the diverse tastes and interests of book lovers who seek narratives that celebrate marginalized stories and voices. Judging By The Cover (JBTC) will stand out as an independent bookstore dedicated to uplifting authors traditionally excluded from the literary canon. Our dream of a brick-and-mortar store and community space is on the horizon. For now, we curate a wide-ranging collection of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry that mirrors the experiences of queer, feminist, and antiracist communities on Bookshop. 30% of every sale goes towards funding our opening.
