A very cute underground bookstore of the Arlington hotel. Extremely well curated. We missed the shop cat, but I got a few books I never found at home in Los Angeles. Particularly a new planner of cats with cat stickers!! I already got a planner at t j.Max, that I immediately decided to give to a friend.So I could get this one!! I highly recommend this swinging in this little cute shop.

This is such an amazing hidden gem in Hot Springs! They had a wide variety of books and some art pieces as well! We even found some poetry books we had been searching for. The vibe was super comfortable and cozy. Plus, Oliver the cat is the cutest! We will definitely be back the next time we are in Hot Springs!

Very cool small local book store in the mall underneath the Arlington Hotel in Hot Springs. They carry both used and new books. Prices are regular publisher rates for new but used books were around $7-10. They also had a lot of gift items, handmade local items, wrapped surprise books, and even snacks. There were quite a few chairs and areas to sit and read at and a small kids area with a coloring table and tent to play in. I loved the cozy vibe with dim lighting and soft music. Very fun decor and a great selection of books. Definitely check out if you are in the area!
