Be My Guest!

 Hello friends! I wanted to dedicate a space to see behind the scenes of running a resell business. I basically run a secondhand bookshop in my apartment! Every week I'll share how much I made and what I thrifted. Each month I'll do an overview of how I did and set my goals. I want to expand Hyla Brook Books into a business with a staff, I dream of getting a red brick cafe where not only can you find books, but folk art and listen to musicians every Friday. A girl can dream can't she?
