Walked past this store while we were looking time and insurrection knew it was my kind of book shop. The welcoming atmosphere and cozy interior really made me feel at home while I was browsing. Would recommend this spot to anyone.

A gem of a small bookstore with a curated selection that will surely satisfy any mystery lover. Friendly, personal service, too, which is a nice change from a big box store - let alone the dreaded online corporate bookseller!

I love this bookstore! The owners are knowledgeable and welcoming. I not only leave with books that I love, I learn about the authors.
