Once Upon A Bookseller

Great place to get physical books. If they don't have what your looking for they will order it. Very sweet staff she is always willing to help and they have book bucks if you save them could equal a FREE book!

Really nice selection, very cozy atmosphere, both my daughter and I found several books we liked.

It's a small little town store by the St.Marys waterfront & if not mistaken its Thee Only Book Store down here . Yet its Very welcoming, clean , organized & the staff there are very friendly & super helpful. Meaning if u don't find what ur looking for they quickly go to their computer & order it for u, free of charge ( u know... just the order part not the book) if u are desiring it. Which I find that cool I also find cool that they give out "book bucks" ( its shown on the pic I post)w./ ur purchase;which I can use to purchase another book or hold on to it & collect enough to get a book for free . I do recommend this store.

Always great customer service. Small town local business vibes.

Love this place. The owner is super nice as is her staff. They have so many new books and if you need something, they will order it and have it shipped to the store, no extra charge. We normally go on Saturdays and if we order a book, it normally comes in on Wednesday. It's a bit of a travel for us so we don't come here as much as we like. They allow you to hang out here also. There's chairs around and a very large table with six chairs around it. They do have some amenities for regular customers.

Very very nice bookstore. I would recommend this to anyone looking for older books to read to the newest. My granddaughter was in town and she was looking for specific books and we took her there and she found what she needed or wanted. Very helpful very nice. Keep up the good work St Mary's and Woodbine love you

I am a bookstore lover...especially independently owned bookstores. And this adorable little shop in St. Mary's is a new addition to my favorite list. Super knowledgeable, sweet staff who went above and beyond to find what I wanted. Of course they won't have every book you want...but it's worth the trade off to get the personal service from someone who obviously loves books.

Absolutely looooooved this store when we lived in Georgia. I struggled with culture shock moving to such a small town, from Seattle. I find myself missing the kind people and little things only the south could have. This little book store has an amazing array of books. For it being such a cute little place, I didn't think I'd find much. The ladies working there are just too sweet. My personal favorite thing, was their adult coloring books. The Christmas themed ones they carry are my favorite. I miss this little store. Such a great place.

I stopped in while I was waiting for the ferry out to Cumberland Island and I was very pleasantly surprised. I found the exact book I was looking for and the staff was very friendly and chatty. They offered me tea and cookies and invited me to sit at the table in the back for a while. It was really lovely and a very memorable part of my trip.

Great bookstore! I stop in every time I visit St.Mary’s.

Fantastic place! Wonderful
Inventory and terrific salespeople. Books I’ve been looking for a long time.. here! 🌺❤🌺

Such an awesome little shop with an owner and staff who are so sweet and kind! Highly recommend! Support your local business and try and come here before buying online. They can also ship in any book you need if they don't have it in the store :)

Fantastic, cozy bookstore with delightfully nice staff and a moderately sized book selection. 10/10 would buy from again.

St Marys, GA Premier book seller. A great boutique book store that works hard to stock specialty and local oriented books. They did a super job finding out of print books for my husband. Their selection if children's books is varied and interesting.

This is a bookstore for READERS, not folks looking for accessories, postcards, or tchotchkes. For a small bookstore in a tiny town, it's wonderful. Plenty of great summer reading material from Stephen King (including the wonderful On Writing) to Ray Bradbury to Dickens, this shop has a little something for every reader. Most books are paperback which seems a wise choice for this market as it keeps inventory costs down, but she does have a few well selected hardcovers. And she does have blank journals and Moleskins for those who were wondering. Be sure to stop in and support this little independent gem!

A truly lovely shop. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, the selection of books is fantastic. It beats bookstore chains, hands down.

Cute little book store with a great selection of classic literature. Customer service was very friendly and helpful. Glad I stopped in

Quaint little bookstore that can order any book you want. I love the atmosphere

Cute shop, great selection of books, friendly service!

Very friendly, books are neatly organized. There is something for everyone, and if you can't find a specific book they can most likely order it for you.
