And 'Squishy Minnie' is a bookshop that is thriving in Kyneton, regional Victoria...The store closed mid-March, before lockdown restrictions, and has thrived since...The 'how' is simply amazing... https://t.co/PvA9aHwnud pic.twitter.com/hQhl5KlCch

Just visited the Squishy Minnie website and found a Roald Dahl quote:
“So Matilda’s strong young mind continued to grow, nurtured by the voices of all those authors who had sent their books out into the world like ships into the sea. These books gave Matilda a hopeful and comforting message. You are not alone.”
That connected with me, because last night, on SBS, I watched the 2017 movie 'The Bookshop'. Not a brilliant movie, but a sensitive one.
The last words in the movie: 'In a bookshop, you are not alone'.
