A Farewell from Find the Path Books
(With Love, Not Regret)
Dear friends, fellow book-lovers, and community dreamers,
After years of sharing stories, trading recommendations, hosting trivia, laughing over Literary Libations, and building something wild and beautiful on Bay Street… it's time for us to say goodbye.
Not because we’ve lost hope, but because we’ve found clarity.
Find the Path Books was born out of passion and built through relentless effort, long nights, and an extraordinary community. But lately, we’ve realized: the path we need now is one that leads inward, toward rest, healing, and rediscovering joy outside of survival mode.
We’re not chasing growth. We’re choosing balance.� We’re not folding in defeat. We’re closing with pride.
Stepping away from this store isn’t easy, but it’s right. It’s time to give ourselves the space to thrive as people, not just as entrepreneurs.
To those who stood beside us, who believed in what an indie bookstore could be, and who helped make Find the Path something unforgettable, thank you. You made magic happen here.
This isn’t a door slamming shut. It’s a page turning. And who knows? Someday, maybe there’s a sequel. But for now, we’re walking a quieter path, and that’s exactly where we need to be.
With gratitude and love,
�Jared, Karena
P.S. If you have a Libations question, book thoughts, or just want to stay in touch, please don’t hesitate to reach out. The story might be ending, but the friendships are not.
