Stopped by this lovely bookstore while visiting Ocean City from Columbus, Ohio. Book selection is awesome and I love the personal notes they leave in some of them explaining why they like that book. There is also a note in each banned book saying why it’s banned. I was able to enjoy a glass of non-alcoholic wine while browsing the store. Staff was very friendly! Highly recommend a visit to anyone in the area!

Lovely and needed gem in OC!! Need a beach read? Want a cozy quiet spot to taste a wine? Great staff. Great vibe. Wonderfully curated selection of books. 📚 Came w three teens and 3 adults and we all found a new book. Shop here!!

BOOKS & WINE BAR !! Break from busy, beach insanity. Interesting selection of wines, sit at the bar or sip while you shop. Lesser known authors, varied genres, easy to browse shelves. Our 2nd time there; always purchase a book and a glass (or three, lol.) Owner writes a personal 'book mark' critique - SO COOL to know 'who' actually wrote the reviews (unlike lg publishers, could be anyone they employ.) Kudos to bravery, passion of this small biz owner - proud to support her!
