Turning a New Page
Rebound Books (although people might think you restore books) :\
Boomerang Books
Reread Central
Spread the Word
Non-nouveau Novel
As the Page Turns

Ok...some of those are really stupid, but you asked and that's about as creative as I can be as I'm waking up with not enough coffee.

Not stupid at all -- thanks very much. Actually, great minds think alive early in the morning. I joked with my wife yesterday morning about inventing a mythical bookstore owner named Paige Turner and calling it "Paige Turner Books."

"Turning a New Page" reminded me of "turning over a new leaf," leaf meaning page, and "The New Leaf Bookstore" kind of strikes me as cool. But there already is a New Leaf Market in this area, with several locations. People in this town are big on catchy business names. I'll keep thinking about the "page" or "leaf" idea.
