A tale of two book lovers: Second-hand bookshops open next door to each other
Happy Monday neighbours,
Second-hand bookstores are like buses: You wait years for one, and then two come along at once.
A pair of second-hand bookstores have opened next door to each other in Woolston in a bid to transform Ferry Rd into a “book destination”.

What do you think about this as a business decision? Savvy?
