The Book Cottage, a new and used bookstore in Jackson, Mich., has moved to a larger, 9,700-square-foot location, Michigan Live reported.
Owner Nancy Oakley, who founded the business in 2013, made the move in January. The new space is more open and allows the bookstore to carry more inventory. The extra space will also come in handy when the bookstore resumes hosting events, especially Harry Potter's birthday on July 31.
Oakley told MLive that the store's original location was just 600 square feet. "I look back at that place and I think, how on Earth? We didn't even have enough books to fill that place when we opened. Now we have well over 100,000." The store has moved three times since it first opened. She added that the store's most recent space in Vandercook Lake simply "wasn't the right fit."
