As the calendar turns and we prepare to welcome 2025, all of us at Main Street Reads want to take a moment to express our deepest gratitude to our incredible community of readers, authors, and friends. 2024 was a year filled with laughter, shared stories, and countless memorable moments within the cozy walls of our indie bookstore.
From themed nights like our magical ‘Twas the Night Before Christmas at Hogwarts during the tree lighting ceremony, to over FIFTY book club meetups, to dozens of author signings that brought both familiar faces and new friends through our doors, this year has been a testament to the power of storytelling and the connections it fosters. Your support has helped us not just grow but thrive as a cornerstone of the Summerville community.
To all who joined our book clubs, discovered a new favorite read on our shelves, or simply stopped in for a chat—we couldn’t do this without you. Your enthusiasm inspires us daily, and we’re honored to share our love of books with each and every one of you.
As we look ahead to 2025, we’re excited to continue building a space where stories come alive and friendships flourish. We’ve got more exciting events, book launches, and surprises in store, and we can’t wait to share them with you.
But let’s take a week off from all that, recover from the bustle of the holiday and ring in the New Year first…
Wishing you and your families all health, happiness, and a year full of captivating reads in 2025. Thank you for being the heart of Main Street Reads. Happy New Year!
With our gratitude,
The Main Street Reads Team:
Shari, Kelley, Kristy, Emma, Leslie, Makayla and Hannah
