My daughter and I loved this little spot. The gentleman working here was knowledgeable and excited about recommending different genres of books. Really neat place.

Such a cool bookstore and of course used to be Faulkners House. Sits back in Pirates Alley and should pop in and take a look. Huge selection of books and the man working there was very nice and very knowledgeable.
