If you’re needing a little magic this weekend, come get some. We’re that magical treehouse you always dreamed of visiting, with books that will take you on adventures beyond your wildest imagination. We might not be Narnia, but we can get you there.
We promise we’re worth the journey.

Excited to announce that our new name is:
The Second Story
Because we’re not just on the second story, we specialize in offering books a second chance to find a reader.
Now, for the logo. Any guesses?

Got that coffee shop ASMR.
Loved Elizabeth Strout’s newest love letter to the human condition. Read if you want to believe in hope for the future (or are questioning free will (both apply)). #bartowfl #winterhaven #polkcounty #mulberryfl #fortmeade
What books are healing you?
Reading is better in community, and your people are waiting. Grab a copy of June’s book club pick, read as much or as little as you want, and come join us to discuss lit in community. You won’t regret the friends you make between the shelves of The Second Story.

Your mom doesn’t want more flowers.
She wants time to be herself. To remember who she was before she was a mom. Being your mom might be the best part of her life, but it is also just a part of her life. Give her a gift that shows her you know who she is outside of her relationship to you.
DM to reserve your bundle. Pick up in store this week.

Just finished listening to the libro.fm audio of #yesteryear and wow. We have big thoughts and big feelings. If you’ve read it, tell us what you think in the comments. Spoilers ahead!
This libro purchase supported Inklings Book Shoppe. If you love audio, consider making the switch to support local indie bookstores with your purchases. While The Second Story doesn’t have our own account yet, you can still support Inklings, Pressed Books & Coffee, or any other local bookstore!
