Nicole Vanderbilt, Managing Director for the UK wing of Bookshop.org, was my guest on today’s show. If you, like me, have long been lamenting the harsh reality that Amazon was the best place to buy books online, then you can thank your lucky stars that Bookshop.org has now come to the UK! They are attempting to provide a platform for independent book stores to sell online and compete with Amazon. We got into the reason physical books have survived, how Bookshp.org is try to challenge the Amazon monopoly, and much more.
