I was in New York City last week and I had to make a pit stop at The Mysterious Bookshop. I’ve been following them on Instagram for ages and they didn’t disappoint. They had a great selection of new and used mysteries and thrillers and they actually carry the British Library Crime Classics which I never see in stores. They also have these cool bibliomystery novellas written just for the store and are published by the store. I had limited space to bring home souvenirs home, so I only got a couple of those and some postcards. I thought the novellas were cool because they are so specific to this shop.
