During the global pandemic, Teddy Boucard and Elizabeth Peters took a chance on a vintage bookstore in downtown Lancaster that was weeks away from shutting down. Oddly enough, the bookstore was owned by one of Teddy’s former high school teachers, whom Elizabeth and Teddy purchased the business from. Fast forward to 2023, and the Read Rose Bookstore is now one of the most popular bookstores in downtown Lancaster, housing a diverse collection of used, vintage, & first edition books.
