Welcome to Epilogue Books!
We have always loved bookstores. Anywhere we go, rather in Michigan or around the world, if there is a bookstore we will visit. In late 2017 the dream of owning our own bookstore became a reality. Valerie, who had a long career in the pharmaceutical business, was offered an early retirement package and Pat, who had spent several years in business management followed by a second career teaching science in public school, had the business experience and the shared love of books. The result was Epilogue Books.
Living in Rockford, we knew the community was a strong supporter of local business and did not currently have a bookstore. We couldn’t be more happy to bring this new business to Rockford and look forward to being a integral part of this community and it’s people. When we open in July, 2018 please, come in, say hello and introduce yourself! We love meeting new people and especially look forward to the opportunity this business will provide for interaction with the community.
Why epilogue? By definition an epilogue is an added chapter or paragraph at the end of a book that concludes the story for the reader. Rather than think of it as a conclusion to a story, we like to think of it as a continuation of our story. This is our epilogue.
