The bookshop has nearly doubled its inventory, featuring more books, more gifts, and a new outdoor patio with additional seating. The expanded store offers readers "a cozier and more inspiring place to gather, browse, and connect."
"Midtown Reader has always been more than a bookstore; it's a home for Tallahassee's readers," said owner Sally Bradshaw. "Our new space allows us to grow that community, welcome more readers, and continue to celebrate the joy of stories together."
In June 2024, Bradshaw had announced that Midtown Reader purchased the building next door and planned, after it was demolished, to use the space to expand the store and for additional parking.
