New Indie Bookshop – Rossiter Books
April 23rd, 2010 by Vanessa
In The Bookseller this week there’s a piece about Rossiter Books, a new independent bookseller just opened in Ross-on-Wye in Herefordshire. It looks lovely and next time I’m visiting my family in Worcester I’ll make a point of visiting. If you live in that area do go and support them – us indies need people to use us or lose us!
I am all for any good indie bookseller – or yarn shop…someone combines the two and…sigh…
I almost never use any other sort of bookshop, except for technical books. The demise 20+ years ago of the wonderful Lewis’s on the corner of UC London was a huge loss and the shrinking technical books (science, engineering, computing etc.) sections of Foyles do not bode well. Do you, or your knowledgeable readers, know of any independent bookshops which specialise in the areas above? I’m willing to travel!
