We’re honored (and honestly still a little giddy) to announce that we’ve been voted Detroit’s Best Bookstore in the 2025 ClickOnDetroit “Vote 4 The Best” contest!


This isn’t just another shiny badge for the website. It’s a reminder that we’re part of an incredible community of book lovers, collectors, and all-around original Detroiters.


To everyone who voted, visited, browsed, recommended us to friends, and turned our stacks into a local institution: thank you. You’re the reason we get to keep the lights on and the stories flowing.


Let’s keep making Detroit’s literary scene something worth celebrating.

Morocco Desert Tours
Dec 28, 2025

The allure of the Sahara Desert has captivated travelers for centuries, and a 3-day tour from Fes to Merzouga offers one of Morocco’s most accessible yet authentic desert adventures. This carefully crafted journey transforms a simple desert tour into an immersive cultural experience, taking you through diverse landscapes from the Middle Atlas mountains to the golden Erg Chebbi dunes, where you’ll ride camels at sunset and sleep under a starry sky. Travelers often begin their journey early in the morning from Fes. The driving distance from Fes to Merzouga is approximately 460 km (285 miles), making it a manageable yet rewarding journey.
