I really love the selection and displays at Dragonfly Books. Their staff - Jamie & Sarah - are incredibly sweet people and very knowledgeable in helping find certain books as well. Comparable to Barnes and Noble in prices imo.

Such a cute little store with lots of selections in both local and more well-known literary work. There are also lots of books by authors of colour! The owners are so nice (and they sell cards made with their own photography). I definitely recommend stopping by here if you visit Decorah!
