Amazing shop. I wrote a previous review and wanted to add the pic :)
My partner and I stopped in here this past Saturday on our “local bookstore tour date.” It was absolutely delightful. The feeling in the shop was nothing short of a nostalgic experience. They were even raising funds for another local nonprofit. We had a wonderful authentic conversation with the owner, who filled us in on the upcoming events. How exciting! We also just had to start a book collection for our future grandchildren (starting with this shop) because they had Goodnight Moon in hardback! Francie & Finch is definitely at the top of my Christmas shopping list. What a gem in the Lincoln community.
Very professional. I ordered a book to arrive and I was sent an email as well as received a phone call to inform me of pick-up availability. Kind and laid back atmosphere. I love that they have events with authors and even poetry readings. I myself am in the works of creating a children’s book and saw they support local Lincoln authors; so fingers crossed.
A truly magical bookshop! I felt transported as soon as I walked in - loved the selection, excellent mix of local authors, popular favorites and unique finds I haven’t seen anywhere else. The children’s section was especially well curated and just really lovely. I’m so happy that I happened upon this special place today.
My boyfriend and I love this little bookstore. Leslie, the owner, was very pleasant and knowledgeable about different books. The unique artwork was interesting, as well. This is a fun experience! We'll be back!!
