For Wilson’s Book World owner Michelle Jenquin, 50 years in business means she’s doing something right. “Especially surviving 2020,” she says with a smile.
Jenquin’s grandmother, Helen Wilson, opened the first iteration of St. Petersburg’s used (and some new) book emporium in November, 1971. An avid reader, Wilson began with 20,000 volumes acquired from an antique dealer - who had in turn bought them from an estate purchase.
