I asked the young lady if they had it and she directed me to the Notable Non fiction section which I thought was strange since it is fiction. Of course it wasn't there and I returned to the cash register where she got a little short with me and kept repeating " I told you it's in the Notable non fiction section!" After I kept telling her that it wasn't and why, she not very happily opened her computer and retrieved the book for me. It's a nice store with good inventory. Customer service could use some work though.

We have been trying to get here to check out this little local book shop. I first heard of them…read morefrom a favorite author of mine. She writes mystery books and the character lives on the island. Love it! She was doing a book signing and I was not going to be able to go. I was able to order a book from them and have the author sign it. That was about 2 years ago and we have been fans ever since. They were so incredibly polite and helpful. We missed coming here last year because of their hours. It is located on an island so they are not open super late. This is a cute little bookstore with different books, little trinkets and souvenirs to purchase. From my understanding they also do many events with different authors. We visited and were actually able to speak with the owner. She was so sweet, actually straightening from a previous nights event. She talked to us for a bit, got to know us and recommended us to her favorite authors. We wanted local books or books written about Sanibel and Captiva. She only had a few but of course we were able to find some we liked. I would highly recommend stopping here if you need a book while on vacation. If I lived in this area, this would be my local shopping place for books. It is always better to buy local. My only reason for a 4 is there was not a huge selection of local books and the ones she did have, she did not have the whole series. There was pretty much one of each as well, so my sister and I could not each get one. But again, I understand, its a small island. I just wish there was more and more copies. Overall though, we will stop in each year and check it out, see what's new and look for any treasures we can find. The fact that they are independent and do not charge more for a book is also really great. Its a good value for us to buy from a local shop as opposed to a mass retailer. You should definitely check it out.

This attractive and fun shop features all three categories and is one of the nicest of its type I have ever visited. The owners are friendly and helpful, and showed me several games and items that were appropriate for my child's age. There were so many interesting things that I had a very difficult time choosing. Of course I wasn't able to narrow down to just one so felt lucky to come away with only three! Be sure not to miss this shop while in Boca Grande. There is local art for sale, too, and many books, puzzles, etc., which would make great gifts for adults--and for yourself!

They have a whole Starbucks cafe off to the side, which is always a lovely combo. Coffee & books? Yep, I'm there. Along with a wide sprawl of book genres, they have a lego section, puzzles and other board games, toys and fun things for the kiddos, and so much more. We spent probably close to an hour just walking around in here and enjoying it all, and it could've been even longer. The prices are still a little higher than is reasonable in my mind, but you have to expect that coming to a Barnes & Noble. They did have a few sales here when I came, though, and one was on some collector Harry Potter books which I couldn't resist. This is a great addition to the University Town Center area.

We did have a few people tell us the only place they knew that had books was in the pavilion and we tried there too but only found another stall (different name) with very few books.
