Such a sophisticated selection in an unfortunate location. I’ve driven past it literally hundreds of times without noticing it. Intelligently curated, geared towards well-read adults who prefer new books.

Shop around the corner vibe with a surprisingly diverse collection for the smaller size. Very pleasant staff. Highly recommend!

I worked with Jackie and Pat for a recent talk I gave at the Avondale Library regarding my book "It Was Always About The Work a Photojournalist memoir" They brought books were on time and were very patient to wait until I finished speaking and happy to say I think sold some books. It was a pleasure working with them.
