Mari's Books and...

The “three ladies” (Mari, Jeannine, and Mary) of Mari’s Books and… are retiring effective mid-February, 2020. Since opening the store in 2006, we have thoroughly enjoyed sharing our love of books. We have greatly appreciated being a vital part of the Yachats business community and cherish the relationships that we have formed with the Yachats “locals” and our out-of-town customers who return year after year.

We are selling our business and are extremely pleased that Yvonne Erickson and Mary Crook will be the new owners of the bookstore effective March 1, 2020. We’re thankful that the ownership of the bookstore will remain in the Yachats family/community.

Now, this is CREATIVITY!!

Cecilia Levy has found a novel use for old books and comics. Instead of throwing them out, the Swedish artist transforms them into beautiful works of paper art.

We have two delightful and beautiful new hard-back children's books written by Greg Ahlijan and illustrated by Beverly Soasey. Several customers have purchased one and then returned to buy the other -- high praise! Stop by and take a look at these fine books!

Mari, Jeannine and Mary enjoyed the 10th Anniversary weekend at "Mari's Books and..." It was especially heartwarming to receive all of the "likes" and comments on Facebook and in person. We look forward to continue selling "previously enjoyed and gently used books" and being part of our wonderful Yachats community. Thanks to all of you!!

A fabulous day in Yachats! The bookstore Teddy had to take a break to sit on our outside bench. Teddy is having a 'spot' of tea, reading her favorite book about duckies and soaking in the rays of sunshine in our 61 degree weather. What a life!

Hurry to 'Mari's Books and...' or call our store at 541-547-3022 to place your bid on our Holiday Wreath. We have two very nice bids but are excited about receiving more. December 20th (tomorrow) is the last day to bid on our wreath which we decorated with small pictures of children book covers. The wreath goes to the person with the highest bid. Proceeds go to YYFAP, which we feel is a MOST WORTHWHILE cause!

"Hot off the Press"! We just received the 3rd book in a "Designer Mystery" series by part time Yachats resident, author Kathleen Hering. On page 219 of this book, "Studs, Tools & Fools", Kathleen calls attention to our wonderful little bookstore and some other businesses here in Yachats. We have all three books of the series...come and investigate, purchase and enjoy these delightfully written mysteries.

Wow! It has been a long time since we have written a post...almost two years. We have been busy...selling books! Thank you to those who have come to our page and have "liked" us. The three of us...Mari, Mary, Jeannine...love what we are doing. The most fun of having this bookstore is seeing 'old' friends and meeting 'new' friends. We enjoy hearing what your reading adventures are. When you are in the village...stop and see us!
