This Summer marks our 5th year of slinging books and building our community together with our favorite people – the readers of Central Wisconsin. Celebrate with us at our 5 Year Anniversary Block Party on August 1st!

It's crazy to think about how much has changed over the last five years, like how the $7,000 we first put into the bookstore has grown into almost $350,000 in total assets. Or the over 70,000 books we’ve sold, amounting to over 1 million dollars! We can also look to the 15 booksellers and interns we’ve worked with over the years – shoutout to Taylor, who was our first bookseller all the way back in 2022!

The 150 different events we’ve hosted over the last 5 years are kind of mind-boggling, but we like to stay busy! Around 50 of those were events we held with authors, which means 50 new bookstore friends we’ve had the pleasure of getting to know. The 8 Boozy Book Fairs were a blast, and even though I don’t have good numbers for this I can safely say the thousands of people we’ve met through these are some of our absolute faves.

While these numbers are all fine and good, they don’t mean nearly as much as the way the Stevens Point area community has welcomed us in with open arms. And yes, I’m counting the one time we got protested because we had over 25 people compared to their 5 standing outside the store. We’ve been able to support many different groups, schools, and organizations since we opened, with around $25,000 in money and books going to worthy causes. Finally, to the untold number of readers who have walked through our store over the years, a number I couldn’t even begin to track – thank you! You’re the reason we’ve been able to keep the doors open and grow as much as we have, and you’re the reason we try our best every day. We’re nothing without our readers.

The future isn’t always very clear, especially in the big 2026, but if the next 5 years are anything like the last then I can’t be anything but grateful.

🌈 It's finally PRIDE MONTH, and we'd like to take a moment to thank one of our longest-standing supporters, Bound to Happen Books!

Point Pride would not be where it is today without their unwavering support. From the very beginning, Bound To Happen has stood by our side, showing up for our community year after year. They truly embody the phrase "put your money where your mouth is."

Not only have they been a valued financial sponsor, but they also generously donate books to our Family Pride each year! More importantly, they provide a safe, affirming space for our community every day of the year. It’s clear why we continue to name our Family Tent the Bound To Happen Books Family Tent.

When you support Bound To Happen Books, you're supporting a business that actively invests in a stronger, safer, and more welcoming community for everyone.

So the next time you're looking for your next great read, skip the unfavorable big online retailers and stop by Bound To Happen Books. Your purchase supports a local business that truly supports us all.

Thank you for everything you do. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
