Book lovers like myself (and all you Beneath the Book Clubbers) have another reason to celebrate.
Frames Etc., located in downtown Stephenville, has completely renovated its bookstore.
377 Books at Frames Etc. is no longer just a place to purchase gently-used books; it’s now a charming, colorful space where you can browse 1,500 new titles and releases, sit by a cozy electric fireplace and read, and of course, search through a fantastic selection of used books.
“We now offer the best of both worlds for book lovers,” owner Julie Lowrance told Beneath the Surface News.
“There has been a resurgence in books and our customers have been asking us to expand our bookstore, so we finally did.
“We have been working on the space for months. We all love to read too, so this has been a lot of fun.”

Every morning my grandfather still sits down with coffee and reads the newspaper from beginning to end like it’s part of a daily ritual he’s followed for decades. Recently he also signed up for digital access because some articles and sports coverage were only available online. Everything worked fine at first, but eventually he started having login problems and couldn’t open certain sections even though the subscription was active. He got surprisingly frustrated and spent half the afternoon trying different passwords before finally searching for the dallas morning news customer support to figure out how to restore access properly.
