The Bookstore has been saved!
Amanda De Seta |
Friday is the last day that Felice will be part of The Bookstore. And on Saturday, Amanda will take over. Jason, Felice's son told me that something was in the works and I had my fingers crossed ever since.
Amanda once produced indie movies for 20th Century Fox. Here in Miami Amanda has turned to real estate, part of a series of homes known as the Glass Houses.
It's a weight of so many of us who feel that The Bookstore is a big part of our community. It's more than just a Bookstore and thanks to Amanda, that tradition will go on.
Amanda met with the staff this morning and it seemed like a love fest.

Good Luck and thank you Amanda for keeping the Bookstore alive and well.
So happy our little bookstore is still alive in the Cocoenut Grove. So much is changing that this is a relief. Thanx Amanda&Jason.
Wonderful news! The Bookstore is an integral part of our community.
Thank you so much for saving our bookstore, I hope we can move our Book Club meetings back to the bookstore where they belong!
Best of luck Amanda, it's a cherished Grove institution. This is happy news.
Wonderful. I wish success for Amanda and the staff at the Bookstore. We all need to do our part to give them our business and insure they stay.
Thank goodness we can all still enjoy this amazing place!
Wow, not all developers are evil! Now don't dare to bash the New Lego homes now that one of their developers saved the Bookstore..Hopefully this comment won't be banned like my previous....
Keep the bookstore as it it, Please Ms DeSeta, don't turn it into a Millennial hang out.
SHE IS ALSO TEARING DOWN HOUSES AND SPLITTING LOTS IN SOUTH GROVE.
Look up Three Avocados.
I am so happy to hear this news! I hope they also continue with the Children's story time. My children and I always look forward to Fridays and Emma entertaining them with such joy. They always have to leave the store with each week's books. I hope they keep the staff my family and I have grown to love!
So happy to hear!!! Will there still be a café?
