Jackson, Michigan Will Lose It's Last Bookstore

With the coming liquidation of Border's, which includes Waldenbooks, Jackson will no longer have a bookstore that sells new books. Sure Target, Meijer's, Pamida, and others sell a selection of books but I won't be going there when I am looking for something to read. Luckily we have a great used bookstore and a library to take up some of the slack, but it looks like it is down to Amazon and other online providers. This is a sad day indeed.

  1. Yes, I blogged about this today, too (http://revcyn.blogspot.com/2011/07/trouble-with-bookstores-redux.html). We have comic books, Christian books, children's books, used books, and department stores, but no new books bookstores any more. It's very sad.
