This mother-daughter-owned indie bookstore is located at 400 East Mt. Vernon St. Local owners Ranae Ruby, and her daughter, Jessica Ruby, offer a unique experience for book lovers. Upon entering the shop, you’re greeted by “Bo” the shop cat, and immersed in a French-inspired romantic theme. As you explore the shop filled with a wide variety of book genres including a children’s area, you’ll then journey into an old police station evidence vault that has been transformed into a cozy room dedicated to murder mysteries and fantasy novels.
Book clubs are offered monthly and weekly, every Friday, the customer’s favorite, “Blind Date” books are always restocked. The bookstore invites visitors to indulge in a new read, study, or work remotely Tuesday through Friday 10am-6pm and Saturdays 10am-3pm.
