Blue Elephant is that rare breed of animal–a general independent book shop. We try to have a wide variety of new releases and back stock. If we could be said to have a specialty, it would be mysteries, just because there are several of us here who love mysteries.

It’s a smallish, but very nicely curated independent bookstore. The current location has lots of seating (presumably for browsers), and a good kids’ book section (although obviously not as comprehensive as LSOS). They had the book I was looking for, and several well-put-together displays of similarly-themed items (local interest, vampire novels, etc.).

I sat there with my left-turn blinker on for several minutes, then gave up and turned right, and cut through on Superior (and before any Great Lakes residents get up in arms, I drove slowly through the residential area!). I don’t go to that strip-mall very often, so I forgot how hard that turn is!
