Independent Bookstore Day – Important for BR
You never heard of Independent Bookstore Day? Yes, in a neighborhood like ours, Independent Bookstore Day is important. Our local bookstore, The Bookmark Shoppe is a gem and a real hub in this neighborhood. It’s at 8413 – 3rd Avenue.
I love that Andrew Gounardes, candidate for State Senate against Marty Golden considered this an important enough day to note on social media. Senator Golden failed to mention the day and I don’t see Senator Golden doing anything to help small businesses in our neighborhood (many shops are closing due to the expenses of high rents, etc). They need a tax break.
The celebrities that The Bookmark Shoppe is able to bring to this neighborhood on their author tours is awesome and is a big part of our neighborhood. They are celebrating Independent Bookstore Day with discounts for us – so stop in.
Hugs,
marlene
