Update on The Magic Door IV Bookshop

Good News – The Magic Door Bookshop Still Open

by Paul Hunt

I recently talked with JoAnn Kaiser to get an update on the story we ran back in July, 2017 called Conspiracy Dudes, Scary Scientology Greet Thetans, and Murder Above the Bookstore. The good news is that JoAnn is going to keep the book store open for the foreseeable future.  She is pulling a lot of great books from Dwain’s storage and so a lot of new arrivals are being put on the shelves.  She has been getting help from a few wonderful folks who volunteer to help her. So make a special trip to her shop and support her by buying some great books.

Regarding the young man who murdered Dwain, he was 17 1/2 at the time he committed the crime.  Now he is 18 and will be tried as an adult.  More good news as far as I am concerned.  I don’t wish to seem mean-spirited in any way, and I understand that the Kaiser’s knew the man since he was a toddler.  He may have a mental disorder, but my opinion is that booksellers are an endangered species, and woe be it to anyone who disturbs that delicate balance. My best wishes to JoAnn Kaiser and all that she has been through.
