In a world dominated by digital screens and fleeting attention spans, there’s a cosy corner in Emerald, where the printed word still reigns supreme. Grace and Louie Booksellers, a charming new bookstore, has been welcoming bibliophiles since the last week of September this year. Owner Lyn Watson’s vision for this establishment is as clear as it is heartwarming: to impart a love of books, particularly to children, and to create a haven for the community that shares this cherished love.
What sets Grace and Louie Booksellers apart is not just the books they offer, which range from new fiction to nonfiction, catering to readers of all ages, it’s the personal, genuine customer service they provide. Here, the stock is carefully curated based on quality content and design rather than being dictated by academic market research or demographic profiling. It’s a place where you’re likely to discover not only the latest bestseller but some hidden gems as well.
The true measure of Grace and Louie Booksellers’ success is the sheer joy it has brought to the community. It’s not every day that a new business witnesses such a heartwarming reception. Many customers have expressed their gratitude for the store’s presence, and the excitement in children’s voices when they discover the dedicated children’s section is nothing short of magical. Moreover, Grace and Louie Booksellers caters to people of all ages, ensuring everyone can find a book that suits their needs.
What’s even more exciting is the roadmap ahead for this bookstore. In 2024, they plan to launch a book club, children’s reading sessions and a loyalty club. And if you ever need the convenience of an online purchase, Grace and Louie Booksellers will soon have their website up and running. Keep an eye on their Facebook and Instagram pages for news and announcements.
For those seeking a particular title that may not be in stock, fret not. Grace and Louie Booksellers can order books “in print” from major Australian publishers upon request. It’s all part of their commitment to serving the unique literary needs of their customers.
