We're thankful every day to share the joy of books with our wonderful community 💖

We even have a few of my favorites on the shelves: The Stolen Life of Collette Marceau by Kristin Harmel (a WWII era Robin Hood-esque tale full of heists and heartache) and Midnight for Charlie Bone by Jenny Nimmo (a magical middle grade adventure full of hidden talents, and mysterious cats)

Biblichor: the name for the comforting smell of books 💖📖

There's true science behind it – as chemical compounds within paper age, they release scents, each one unique to the era and type of paper. Sweet vanillin or sawdust, other times similar to cedar, coffee, or sharp clean ink; or even a combination of them all!

Breathe in the bookstore air and smell the adventures waiting to be read ✨

New vintage sci fi fantasy, an antique birding guide, pretty picture books, stories of Hollywood and movie magic, blind- date- with- a- books, and so much more waits to be discovered! 📚🐛
