Poet's Corner Bookshop

As a recent transplant in Sonoma County, my journey here unfolded through a series of whimsical signs guided by fate and trust. My first month here entailed exploring neighboring cities and small towns with my dog Luci. One small town I stumbled upon was Duncans Mills. Initially drawn in for a coffee and pastry at Gold Coast Coffee and Bakery, my attention shifted to a quaint village of shops across the road, including a tiny shack-sized bookstore. Stepping into this magical bookshop felt like crossing a threshold akin to the 9 3/4 platform in the Harry Potter series. Despite its small size, the store boasted a curated collection of excellent books. My favorite section, featuring spiritual and mental health books, became a personal haven. Meeting the warm and welcoming owner, Stephanie, during my first visit, further enhanced the enchantment. I’ve revisited this bookstore thrice, making it a ritual whenever I’m in Duncans Mills. For me, books are a source of joy, and Stephanie has skillfully chosen volumes that can delight any reader. Light and love reside in this little bookstore, offering happiness to all, especially those who still appreciate the tangible charm of printed books. I wholeheartedly encourage anyone in the area to step inside and experience the magic of this unique shop.

Wandering through the quaint shops in Duncan’s Mills, we discovered this perfect gem of a #bookstore filled with a variety of fun, quirky, unique reads and fun gifts to suit anyone. Stephanie and her little chihuahua made us very welcome in the pet friendly space and the Poets Corner Bookshop reminded me of all the reasons why indie bookstores are the best!

An absolutely adorable bookshop — the smallest in the country — with an excellent selection of new and used books. Highly recommend stopping here while strolling through all the wonderful shops nearby!
