Thanks for coming on my page to check out The Lit. Bar. After doing some research for Blackout Bestseller’s List, I came across The Lit. Bar and needless to say, I fell in love.
This is the only bookstore serving the Bronx, and is owned by “Noëlle Santos… an African American and Puerto Rican venture activist from the Bronx.” You can follow her on Instagram here: @1st.noelle.
ONCE UPON A TIME A GIRL FROM THE BRONX HAD BIG DREAMS OF OPENING AN INDEPENDENT BOOKSTORE/WINE BAR RIGHT HERE AT HOME
IT WOULD BE THE ONLY INDIE BOOKSTORE
IN THE ENTIRE BOROUGH
–HOME TO 1.4 MILLION PEOPLE AND 10 COLLEGES
AND IT WOULD BE CALLED
The Lit. Bar also raises money for all independent book stores the the Bookshop initiative. In case you’re curious about how the Bookshop initiative raises money for independent booksellers, you can check it out here.
Anyway, when I realized they had an affiliate link program, I knew I had to make a change. So from now on, when you see an affiliate link on Amy’s Booket List, you will not only be supporting me but you will also be supporting this amazing independent bookstore and its owner.
If that’s not cool enough, Beyonce was just talking about The Lit Bar, and we all know we should do what the Queen Bey says.
