Located at 12 Carysfort Avenue (just round the corner from Blackrock Main Street) this compact little shop is like the Tardis and boasts a lot more on the inside than its diminutive frontage would suggest. I popped in today, for the first time, and was very pleasantly surprised by the range and quality of stock. Despite the indifferent weather the shop was doing a brisk trade and I would recommend it as a call for all booklovers. Friendly customer service! Remember that there are also several booksellers in the Blackrock Market (off Main Street) as well as, the long established, Carrig Books at 73 Main Street.
