Enjoy extended hours that allow for browsing after dinner, making it convenient for evening visits.
Loved that this little bookstore was open so late so I could wander in after dinner! Lots of variety on sections of reading covering most every genre I could think of from history to children's books. The shop keeper was super sweet and they have free stickers and origami that they make with the cutest print paper. I got a copy of Red Rising which I've heard is good and am excited to read.
Charming bookstore in Dunedin. They carry everything from new to old as well as some used. A must visit for book lovers. Very cute!
A wonderfully sweet little bookstore! The organization is different than anywhere I’ve ever seen with used and new books intermingled. It doesn’t take away from the finding experience, and the recommended books on shelves are fantastic. What stood out was a whole non fiction Florida section, which I am excited to come back for more of.
What is better than a cozy local book shop in a walkable downtown? A bookshop that sells games, puzzles, socks, totes and cards. A great stop when you need a little gift. They also take and sell used books. Love this spot which is open late.
Awesome old school classic book shop. Suitable replacement for those who miss Haslams and want a small environment. Books are both new and used and there’s a collectible book section, and some clothing and accessories available with book motifs. Everything is clean, accessible, and well air conditioned. Plus the owners are adamant on being pro-book which is a plus. Highly recommend stopping by.
