About Cheryl's Book Nook
There are over 60,000 books on the main floor for display with many others listed on net. All genre (science fiction, mystery, fiction, contemporary romance, historical romance, non-fiction, history, etc.) includes paperbacks and hardbacks. My speciality is putting together sets in all genre. If you don't see the book listed in my online inventory, send an e-mail as I just may have a copy on the floor. I opened the store in Dec. 1976. with only 1500 books and have grown through the years until the present location in 1983. Come check us out on facebook.
