Philipp Meyer: Indie Bookseller Support 'Means Everything'
Shelf Awareness
"It means everything. I grew up going to bookstores and libraries--places where lots and lots of physical books were stacked. I love going into bookstores and spending hours just wandering around. And so I am happy to hear that things seem to be looking up a bit, and that we even gained a few new indie stores last year."
