Cape Atlantic Book Company — Local services in Cape May

First off, been here before, before i started writing reviews, and finally got around to writing since i've written reviews. Anyways, this is located on the 2nd floor of a building in washington square mall. Most cutest little bookstore that has lots of steven king, as i brought The Shining Book last year, and both local authors and other books. i think last year or the year prior there was even a book on wildwood through the years which my mom looked at. always end up buying some type of book here each time i stop. Went here on Sunday August 4th 2024 with my parents as part of our cape may/wildwood vacation. Of Course, while we were at Washington Square Mall. looked around, first checked the young adult section for any percy jackson books (either the trials of apollo, or the some other rick rordan book i didn't have. Didn't have much, but they did have some harry Potter books and puzzles too. then looked over towards the front and found Steven King, decided to buy Christine. So far it's a good book! Cashier was very nice, and was actually reading herself. Which is good to see! It was about $20.00 for a book, but reasonable, i feel. She also said that they stock books on monday, and they sell fast, so that's why the store was almost empty. Cashier was also very pleasant. overall enjoying still reading christine! Hope to be...

They make the most of the space at their disposal. As noted, puzzles and games for younger kids, but it was even more fun when our kids were a bit older. We're a reading family and having everything from popular novels, young adult novels, classics, historical non-fiction, coming to the store to browse the possibilities is an event in itself. It's something we could spend a happy hour doing. Then the beach reading we left with, while also really enjoyable was also worth spending time over our week's vacation talking to each other about. Fun to visit, fun to buy something, fun to read, fun to discuss, four fun outcomes from one trip to the store. It's...

I love small local book stores and always try to support by buying books anytime im in one.. th is was a small selection but had some good books. I picked one uo for purchase however eventually put it down and left because the poor attitude of what appeared to be an owner. On top of it.. my kids.. who also are well behaved and love bookstores were constantly getting uncomfortable glares. Im sure they deal with a lot of brats being in such a tourist driven area but the shop owner/staff made it unenjoyable. My walking into a book store is usually a 4 or 5 book purchase. I wont return as this is the second chance....
