I love supporting local businesses, especially when it comes to a bookstore. There is something to…read morewalking into a place filled with books, there is a warm sensation that fills me & makes me happy. Independent bookstores especially make me light up. The layout, the selection, the people working the counter, it is all just a great experience.
Now, smaller bookstores like this one tend to have smaller selections, but the Book Vine is more than happy to special order anything you would like. They keep those special orders behind the counter with your name on it.
The book Vine is so aptly named as it not only sells books, one can also pick up a lovely bottle of wine as well. They have a special (closed doored) area of the shop dedicated specifically for grapes masquerading around as wine. So, you can ideally plan a lovely evening of books & drinking something I know you Yelpers enjoy.
The shop itself is split up into two levels, 1st floor has books, wine, magazines, and also the checkout counter. 2nd level, has comfy chairs to sit and read the used books that are stored up there. It is a great place to go and relax. I would imagine that this is a great place for a book club to have its regular meetings as well.
So, if you are ever in this neck of the woods give the Book Vine a try.
