. Residents are now wondering what Chip Gaines, who with wife Joanna built the Magnolia Network, is planning for the shop’s next chapter. Last November, Gaines quietly bought two buildings that are home to Booked Up – the bookstore that was McMurtry’s lifetime passion project in his hometown. The author of “Lonesome Dove” and “The Terms of Endearment” opened the bookstore in 1987 and over the decades it became a pilgrimage site for McMurtry fans and book lovers from around the world.
In a January 2019 interview with Cowboys & Indians magazine, Chip Gaines talked about his family’s connection to Archer City, the place where his parents grew up and is located about 200 miles northwest of Waco. While Gaines grew up in Albuquerque, he said he would often spend summers with his grandfather in Archer City, riding horses and mending fences, and that’s where a suburban kid from the big city learned to appreciate the farming and ranching lifestyle.
I don’t know how to feel about this. On the one hand, the stores weren’t thriving after Larry’s passing and needed fresh blood, but the Waco cult is a circus and I don’t want “live, love, laugh” signs and overpriced cupcakes taking over AC. My guess is the old books go.

Oh let’s guess. The wife will throw some shiplap on the walls. They’ve become so boring. IMO
