        Cute little book shop, very child-friendly. I didn't find books I wanted but I love the vibes and the extremely friendly staff.

        The owner of this store spoke to me incredibly rudely. She attacked me verbally for approaching her store when she was locking up. Her bookstore was apparently sponsoring an event in a different location. However she gave me the fifth degree and demanded proof that any statement saying she would be open til 9. How thoroughly insulting. Similarly during Covid she spoke extremely ugly to me about picking up books outside. If you wish to be talked down to, this is your store. This is how she treats potential customers innocently walking toward her establishment.

        Stopped by this little bookshop on a day trip to Athens and loved it! They have a great selection of books. Shae and Mikey were happy to give recommendations and pull books for me. The book I bought from here was one of the first books that I have read in a long time. I hope to visit again.

      Hello, Melia, I remember talking with you outside the store about the book swap going on that day at a local brewery that evening. As Avid’s events director, I genuinely wanted to know where you had seen the event information for the book swap so we correct any incorrect information. However, after our conversation, I realized that I could have been kinder. I apologize and will use this review and interaction going forward as a reminder to (above all else), check myself, pause, and respond to customer’s questions in a more open manner. I have told our bookshop owner about this, so she is aware of our conversation.from Rachel Watkins, events director
