ABCD Books Of Camden Maine

This is a special OUT OF PRINT Bookstore.  

And just like Camden, it is charming. Let's have a look.

This is the owner. She is very sweet and super helpful. 

If you can't find a book, contact ABCD BOOKS.

After you walk in and pass the owner, this is what you see. 

I have found that most of Maine is filled with well read intellectuals. In most of these charming little towns, you will have a difficult time finding a lot of different items to purchase. 

But you will never have to go very far for something to read. In these tiny towns it is not unusual to find 2 or 3 book stores. 

The libraries are loaded, better than the library in Boca Raton, Florida. 

Perhaps because Boca Raton-ians shop, they don't read much.

Isn't this cozy and funky ??

That's my funky daughter, she is a reader and loved the store.

BTW, this is a very large shop. I have not posted all the really great reading corners . The owner has done a fabulous job with her place. ABCD BOOKS has an inviting and warm atmosphere. 

She had interesting things on the bookshelves that were for sale as well.

My daughter Andi & me at the end of the days adventures.
