The Wondering Mind

A new and second-hand bookshop tucked into The Settlement, behind the cafés in the historic South Coast village of Milton. The range runs across general and classic fiction, children's books, poetry and non-fiction, with greeting cards, puzzles, games and gifts alongside. It works as much as a reading room as a shop: bring your coffee, settle in, join a book club or the writers' group. The owner opens around ten, once the coffee's sorted. It's a nominated regional hero.
