Very sad
Today, I went by Coliseum Books by my office to pick up a few books. A few years ago, they moved to a new location right around the corner from my office and I’ve been a devoted customer ever since. It’s a great bookstore—the charm of an indie with the inventory of a big chain store. And so convenient.
Unfortunately, they didn’t do as well in their new location as they had hoped and they declared bankruptcy in October. Probably didn’t help that B&N opened a new store a few blocks up Fifth Avenue to compete with them.
They’re scheduled to close at the end of December, so I’ll have to go buy lots of books in the next month before they’re gone.
