    One of the increasingly rare independent bookstores. Super place to browse, sip custom coffee drinks, eat bakery treats. Owner and clerks all well informed and knowledgeable. Occupies 2 small stores on the main commercial street in Dixon with other stores, including an antique mall, art gallery (Next Picture Show), and several charming restaurants/cafes within a couple of blocks.

    A great little independent bookstore. All of the books are split up by sections: fiction, poetry, books on Reagan, etc. There are a few tables where someone could sit, browse book and drink coffee. The cashier/barista was very knowledgeable. Books are regular price except this one bookshelf that has books for two dollars each. There are also stickers for a certain percentage off (20 to 50)  featured books. Credit cards are accepted on purchases over five dollars. In addition to buy a book one can get a drink or a pastry treat. A delightful place to visit whether you live in the area or are just passing through!
