What a day… Honestly I was not ready to open. I’m so tired and my back is killing me. Then Petal showed up waiting for us to open, and it was all worth it. Then so many others came all day long and I was reminded that all the hard work was worth it. It is not easy moving a bookstore and creating a new one. I have countless people to thank, but right now I want to thank those people who showed up today for our soft opening in this horrible weather. Thank you. I appreciate you more than I can ever express. Looking forward to seeing more of you in the days to come.

Thank you.

The wait is over!
The bookstore is officially open!
Thank you to everyone who helped make this possible.
The only thing that could make it better is a little sunshine.☀️

Starting tomorrow until our Grand Opening on October 24th, everyone who buys a new book in store or online (audio books too!), is entered to win a year of free books. That is one book, valued up to $35, every month of 2027! It could be you!

Thank you for shopping at Happy Medium.
Hope to see you soon! We’ve missed you!
