Turning Page Bookshop will be hosting a grand opening celebration tomorrow for its second store, located at 203 E. 3rd North St. in Summerville, S.C. Meanwhile, the Charleston City Paper reported, Turning Page, the only African American-owned bricks-and-mortar bookstore in the state, has temporarily closed its store on St. James Avenue in Goose Creek; owner VaLinda Miller decided to move her original shop "up the road to a more affordable location away from construction projects surrounding its previous home."
"When you're on a budget to cut down on expenses to weather the Covid storm, it's cheaper and better to move to another area in Goose Creek," she said, adding that she hopes to have the new Goose Creek storefront (address to be announced) open before the holiday season.
