I went to Maine for vacation this week and found this book shop nestled into the back of a cafe. The gentleman who assisted me was like a someone from a storybook himself. He was perfect. Knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He changed my life that day, silly as it may sound. I don't know his name, but I wish him all the magic in life he has provided for me, through the simple act of suggesting a book.

Every time I walk in I can feel my spirits lift. The inventory is so carefully curated, including the items that aren't books! All my belongings are covered in stickers from Hello Hello. The staff are so thoughtful with their recommendations and they have yet to recommend a book that isn't perfectly tailored to my interests! They often make recommendations that I'm surprised by as it wouldn't be something I'd pick up on my own and then that book inevitably becomes a favorite of mine. I have expanded my variety of genres so much since frequenting Hello Hello. If you're local, you have to make a habit of stopping in. If you're visiting, don't miss the opportunity to visit the sweetest bookstore!

What a wonderful little gem of a bookstore. Eclectic choices, kind and very helpful staff. A place to spend some "get-away" time from the busy world. They will also look for a used book online for you, if it's out of print or not available new, and will order it for you. Always a pleasure to speak with them.
Independent bookshops are the heart of local communities. Visit, shop, and help keep them thriving!
