It’s not really a bookstore; it’s a small corner of a marketplace that has some books. The selection was diverse and had a tiny bit of several genres. Annoyingly, some of the shelves had the spines facing out toward the street instead of where a customer could read them. I understand that it’s probably to draw people in from the street, but instead of making it harder for the customer, why not put up a window poster or double stack books?

There are books in the corner of a art shop. I think it’s a bit of a stretch to call in a bookstore. It’s more of a small book pop-up shop trailer thing.

I ordered online and got my book right away! It was wrapped in the most beautiful paper (I almost didn't want to unwrap it). Support small businesses!

Wish I knew 🙁 Called twice during business hours to ask about a specific book no answer 🤷‍♀️ maybe not open yet?

Very small selection. It’s a corner within a market place.
