We have a little bit of everything: bestsellers, fiction, non-fiction, kids, used, puzzles, boardgames, totes, & more!

Starting June 1st, we have exciting new SUMMER hours! 🌞📅

First, we'll be open SEVEN DAYS A WEEK!

Next, we're staying open an extra hour each day, meaning instead of closing at 4pm, we're staying open until 5pm each day to give you more time to browse!

Please note, however, that as The Lodge Coffee House is a separate business from us, they run their own hours. As such, the coffee shop hours remain 9am-3pm from Tuesday - Sunday, and closed on Mondays.

We're looking forward to getting to spend more time with you and the books! 😊📚

🐟One of my favourite picture books just arrived, and I'm over the sun about it!

Ursula is an happy catfish, swimming through a shimmering river with weeds waving above and a sky full of scrumptious bugs below. Then one question turns her world upside down. Is left right? Is right wrong? Which way is even up?

Ursula Upside Down by Corey R. Tabor is a playful and delightful book that explores individuality in the world and encourages young readers to find their confidence within it.

What happens when you accidentally fall in love with two married men?
Local broadcaster, comedian, and TV personality Jesse Reynolds found out the hard way.

Forbidden Fruit & Camo Boots is a laugh-out-loud, emotionally raw memoir about stumbling into a gay throuple, navigating military life, surviving heartbreak, and learning how to love again — sometimes in the most questionable ways possible.
