Blue Bicycle Books

Date of Visit: June 18, 2021

One of the things we considered as a stop on our way down to Hilton Head was used bookstores. After deciding to stop at Charles Pinckney NHS, I didn't expect to also end up at a used bookstore, but Mik thought we should waste more time and not risk getting to Hilton Head before 4pm check-in and not have our room ready. We had already picked out Blue Bicycle Books as a store that looked worth visiting in Charleston sometime.

Mik enjoyed rolling around the store as one of the few independent/used bookstores he could actually navigate through. There was just a little bit in the way back that he couldn't really go to, but it was not any of the sections he was interested in anyways. The one room at the front was also hard to get in to with a bicycle leaning in the way, although that could be moved.

Overall it was a good stop, especially since we ended up finding a parking spot a few blocks away on the street and enjoyed walking around the area as well. I didn't find any WPA or Rivers of America books, but they do have a good selection of local books including old and new.
