Book retailers
Book retailers are businesses that sell books directly to consumers. They operate through physical stores, online platforms, or both, offering a wide range of titles from fiction and non-fiction to specialized genres. Retailers often stock various formats, including hardcover, paperback, and digital e-books. They serve as the primary point of access for readers, providing book recommendations, promotions, and convenient purchasing options. Book retailers play a crucial role in the distribution chain, connecting publishers and authors with the public, and influencing the popularity and availability of new and established titles.
