Hi, my name is Logan!
I am the Co-Owner & Resident Reader of The Book Archive!
Opening a bookstore has always been a silent dream of mine. The reason I say silent is because I never thought this could be my reality… however, things have a funny way of working out. My fondest memories have always included reading and being around books but, it wasn't until my adulthood that I found my real love for literature and stories. I spent many years working at a bookstore however, I was always dreaming of owning my own bookstore so taking this leap of faith is very serendipitous.
Of course, I couldn’t do this alone… My partner and co-owner, Derek, has been extremely supportive (*thinks I’m crazy*) and is helping with many things behind the scenes.
We are so excited to bring The Book Archive to book lovers
across Canada and can’t wait to discover new stories together with all of you!
