The opening of a locally owned shop of any kind is cause for celebration, especially when so many NYC stores are shutting their doors. But for lit lovers, the arrival of a new indie bookstore feels like a national holiday. That’s why we’re thrilled to hear that eagerly awaited Greenlight Bookstore in Fort Greene opens to the public this Saturday, October 24. Come by at 10am for storytime with Michelle Knudsen, author of the adorable (and bestselling) picture book Library Lion. There will be book-related goodies and prizes for the kids (and a champagne toast for grownups who return to the store at 7pm), but we think the real treat is the fact that city bibliophiles of all ages have a new haven, just in time for curl-up-with-a-good-book season.
