Published

on

For nearly two decades, Sean O’Reilly’s book distribution company has been a cornerstone of Front Royal’s literary scene. Since 2004, O’Reilly’s passion for books fueled the local reading community and made him the number-one customer for the Front Royal Post Office for 14 years.

Sean O’Reilly

Operating from the historic Murphy Theatre building at 131 East Main Street (above DL Coffee Shop) since 2016, O’Reilly’s company has provided countless titles to book lovers near and far. Sadly, on December 6, 2022, Sean O’Reilly passed away after a courageous battle with aggressive cancer. His family has decided to close down the cherished book business.

In a heartfelt send-off, a massive sale is being held over the next two Saturdays, May 13 and May 20, from 9:00 am to 4:00 pm. This is an amazing opportunity for book enthusiasts to grab a fantastic deal, as nothing will be priced over $10.

With thousands of books spanning various genres and interests, from travel and children’s books to gardening, health and fitness, DIY, cars, O’Reilly computer manuals, arts and crafts, cookbooks, and more, there’s truly something for everyone. Don’t miss out on this chance to honor the memory of Sean O’Reilly and support his family in their time of need while also expanding your literary horizons.
