Notable Quotes (3)
Bloomington hasn't had an independent bookstore in almost 30 years. And we deserve it. We deserve a space that fosters community.
We are working really hard to make sure that we build a viable revenue generating bookstore that helps bring not just money to the city but creates a cultural destination for people.
The best thing I can tell you is I love reading. I love Bloomington and I want to combine those two things together.
