People ask me sometimes why I still do this. The hours are long and nobody gets rich running a small bookshop. But the honest answer is that the staff and I love remembering you. I love knowing what you read last, what you're saving for the cottage, what your kid is finally into. You walk in, and we pick up right where we left off.
My brother grew up here in Arnprior, and he just built something called . When he described it to me, I recognized the idea behind it right away, because it's the same one that keeps me behind this counter. It's a fitness coach that gets to know you, builds a plan around your actual life, and then sticks around. It remembers where you left off, it pays attention to how things are going, and it adjusts when real life gets in the way instead of handing you another plan you'll quietly abandon by February.
Anyway, it's called Coach Cedar, and it's not just for gym people, which is part of why a few of you came to mind. It's the same thing I love about this shop, really. Someone remembering where you left off and picking up from there. Have a look if you're curious. Proud of him, and am proud to be able to share! Now, back to the new arrivals.
