    "A delightful book store that offers so much more!  Just what our small community needs. If it is not on their shelf,  they can get it for you.  I enjoy attending Mats and  Mimosas, browsing through their shelves and wine time!"

    "SUCH a cool little bookstore with a hand-picked selection of top shelf goodness. I haven’t had their selection of drinks yet, but just from the looks of it, it looks utterly un-disappointing. Can’t wait to come back in. Such a great addition to the downtown area."

    "Such a pleasant place to sit and work! The owner is wonderful and if you're looking for a specific book, she'll order it promptly for you. The wine selection supports our local wineries also, which I admire."
