I would like for them to survive. I have another 18 years until retirement.


BOOKSTORE SALES FELL 6.5% in August, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. Usually a strong month for sales, the decline is a disappointment for those who hoped the economy was turning around. Bookstore sales are so far down 2.0% overall this year. Sales rose 3.9% for retailers overall in August.

On an individual level, businesses do come and go. It’s hard to believe that indie bookstores will completely vanish.
