A wonderful surprise find was this bookstore. They have lots of books of all kinds there. I personally loved that Harry Potter got his own section for not only books. They had games and other collectible items in the Harry Potter section.They may have that book you been looking for but cannot seem to find.

I absolutely loved coming into this bookstore! It has many vintage books (which you don't see too often) but also had a kids section and books that are currently popular! Also, the smell of books in here is incredible. They also have such cute stands of bookmarks and other small goodies.

This book store was charming and welcoming (and NOT MUSTY, thank goodness!) like an independent bookstore should be! My eyes lit up while perusing the book stations and sections highlighting each genre. Kids in the front and classics against the left wall. My 8 yr old niece and my 12 yr old daughter were enthralled as well.Front and center, there was a vibrant Harry Potter section, as well as a prominent placement of all of the new, contemporary lit books that all avid readers talk about.They had so many cute gifts including literary themed socks (my fav) and the customer service was awesome. We were asked if we needed help and left to our book surfing curiosities. I loved it here! Items were reasonably priced and my only gripe would be MORE POETRY! And not just classic poets like Plath and Frost but spoken word poets and non-commercially sensationalized ones! (Yes Amanda Gorman and Rupi Kapur and Maya Angelou are awesome but what about the recent national and state poet laureates to start!? And the 2024 Grammy nominated poets!?) I could have spent a lot more time (and money) on a rainy Friday afternoon in this cute little San Marco book lovers nook, but I had two kiddos with me who were hungry !We left with a Mary Oliver poetry Journal for me, a pair of Edgar Allan post socks for me, and a graphic novel for my eight-year-old niece.Another review giving it to you Straight no chaser! Enjoy!

Returning to my cherished bookstore, a haven of my student days at Landon, always rekindles a flood of joyful memories. Each visit feels like stepping into a realm of magic and enchantment, surrounded by a kaleidoscope of colors and the intoxicating aroma of books. Their selection is nothing short of spectacular, offering an extensive range of books and delightful literary-themed gifts. The staff exude warmth and friendliness, always eager to assist. I'm particularly impressed with their user-friendly website, which simplifies the process of placing orders and pre-orders. As a local author, I'm deeply grateful for their unwavering support and promotion of community writers. Eagerly anticipating my next visit, I remain a devoted fan of this bookstore's unique charm and community spirit.

*If they sell used books it wasn't obvious.* Very cute store, cozy and inviting. I parked in the back lot behind the fire station. This is definitely one to stop by if you like classics! Their selection is huge. They also have a decent selection of signed books, cute merch for banned books, candles, greeting cards, etc. If you're into romance, YA, horror/thriller you won't find much.

This store has been in this location for many years and have served many people in Jacksonville Florida. I came in a few days ago to buy a book in advance to Kara Joseph's Book signing of her new book, "If Wine Could Talk". The event was yesterday, Thursday 09/23/21. They served wonderful wine for us to pair up with some food from Town Hall and Prati Itaila. I was early and had a chance to get my newly purchased book from the store. Kara signed it for me. We also took a few picture and made a YouTube video. Thanks going out to San Marco Bookstore for being great! They can get almost any book that you might need. The employees are wonderful and the store itself has a lot of great selections. They have a wonderful children's section of books as well. Keeping doing what you're doing. Great job!
