Love this bookstore! They have a small selection of books, but you can easily order through them. And if you're crafty, they share this space with Weird Sisters, so you also get the chance to look at yarn and get your creativity pumping. They also sell local goods, so it's fun to see what sort of stickers or syrup you can get from local vendors. And of course the staff is super friendly and willing to help you find what you're looking for!

Cute little store packed with fibercraft supplies and books! I thought they mainly offered yarn and was pleasantly surprised to see they also had a variety of supplies for embroidery and sewing clothing. Love a store that enables all my hobbies at once!

Oh my word. What an incredible spot. Specifically impressed with their selection of niche history and non-fiction, and their cookbooks are incredible. Niche stores with an incredibly friendly environment. Teagan deserves a special shoutout for being so kind and friendly. A must-stop shop!

Love my neighborhood bookshop! It’s a tiny gem in St. Johns. Any books I want that are not in stock, they can get pretty quickly. The staff are knowledgeable and friendly. They also have a great selection of locally-made cards and gifts, and fun stickers and patches. My kids and I always find something perfect.

This store is so cute! The bookseller was very kind and the selection was decent. Hopefully trying a knitting class some time!
