    Quaint locally owned book store that reminds you a little of the book store in the movie You've Got Mail...the one that Meg Ryan's character owns. *Best* book store in Charlotte!

    This is an exceptional local book store. In addition to a good general selection, it features local writers and great regional offerings in history travel and local lore.
