Following a soft opening in late July, Neighbor Books in McKinney, Tex., will host a grand opening celebration tomorrow, August 10, Community Impact reported.
Neighbor Books resides at 208 E. Louisiana St. and features a general-interest, all-ages inventory spread across two floors. In addition to books, there are puzzles, games, and a variety of store-branded merchandise.
The grand opening event will feature children's storytimes in Spanish and English. After the grand opening, co-owners and married couple Joey and Ginny Honescko plan to expand their event offerings with author signings, puzzle nights, and book clubs. They also offer a store membership program that includes discounts, free drip coffee, and early access to events; around 200 people have joined as members so far.
Joey Honescko told Community Impact that community members have "rallied behind" the store, even going so far as helping the owners finish renovations and set up. The store's wide-ranging inventory, Honescko added, is meant to make everyone who enters "feel like this is a place for them."
