Hooked on Books is a 'must stop' everytime I'm fortunate enough to make it to the Florida Keys. They always have a special section full of books on Florida...fiction, historical, Keys, pirates...you name it, they've got it. They also have many signed books, as Hooked on Books is a stop for many of the popular Florida authors. I was excited to get to meet Tim Dorsey there are few years ago, and was able to visit with him for quite awhile as the atmosphere is more personal than a big city bookstore.
If you are looking for new, used, signed, collectors, kids, teens, families, old folks....they've got it. And if they don't, they'll find it for you.
I wish more places still had great independant bookstores like Hooked on Books!
Was surprised at how many books were available at this location. Both used and new books lined the shelves. Also, some small games for the kids.
I have passed this store during several trips to the keys and finally got my husband to stop. I am happy we did. They carry new and used books. I liked the section with local authors and keys themes. Next time I plan to stay a little longer.
