I was undecided on what to buy. It would've been cute if they gave me some sort of discount like buy one get 1/2 off but it is what it is. These are the earrings that I got. The prices seem to be like standard Mystic prices for things. These earrings cost me $55 with tax. The personnel there were very friendly and helpful. No one hovering over you as you're trying to make a decision so overall it was great. I'm happy with my purchase. Just wish I was able to get both of the earrings that I wanted. :(

When I first walked inside I was under the impression that this is a tiny bookstore, the further I walked the more books I would discover. This isn't a tiny bookstore, it is moderately sized. I loved the variety of books available. There's fiction, history, brand new releases, kids, and specific interests such as birds. In addition to the books, they also have some giftable items. There's wrapping paper and cards here also. They also have comfy chairs and couches so you can get comfy while reading. This is such a beautiful bookstore that I'm glad to support in downtown Mystic.
