"The Book Lady is one of those jumbled, quaint, old bookstores that you see sometimes in movies but not as often in real life. A couple steps down from the Liberty Street sidewalk, the shop sells a mix of new and used titles and rare editions, with a fabulous selection of books of local and regional interest. You'll find big-name titles (Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil) as well as terrific books on Southern history, cooking, and culture. And, as one of two superlative bookstores in downtown (the other is E. Shaver), it also tends to attract authors making their rounds in the South. You may be lucky enough to be in town for a reading." - Ariel Felton, Sam Worley
