My husband and I are always in pursuit of new, exciting, and quaint bookstores. Whenever we travel, we always research little bookstores in the local towns we visit. Usually the bookstores we stumble upon have a small store front window, single door entrances, and if were are lucky a tall wooden ladder that slides across the shelves of tall book cases. Small hallways packed with rows of books, an inviting children's area, and a single cashier, are always signs of a timeless bookstore.
As it turns out, l did not have to travel far or even 3 miles outside of my local neighborhood to find the next greatest gem. Located on a popular strand in Long Beach, California, about a mile from beach, Apostrophe Books lies. Adorned with stationary, greeting cards, journals, and books, I could get lost in this bookstore for hours. Their shelves are stocked with the most popular and timeless novels to the history of California. I love walking down the street to purchase an original birthday card, and discover a new author. Who knew such a warm and inviting bookstore was located down the street from my house.
