Welcome to Stunning Stories and Fascinating Facts, or Double S Double F! Here interested witches and wizards will find books on all kinds of topics, but especially novels and books of creative work. Don't worry if you prefer non-fiction, we have titles filled with information for you, too! If you have trades, feel free to bring them to the front desk so someone can take a look for you and give you credit. All the used books are in the back if that is what you need, but don't forget that credit can be used for new books as well. Also, the coffee and tea are for anyone who would like some. Feel free to ask for help with anything you might need, and do make yourself at home!
Witches and Wizards can find their books through the door to the right. Be aware that there is a Muggle Repelling Charm just inside the door, and let Elisabeth know if you are accompanied by a Muggle who needs access. However, please feel free to browse the Muggle shelves! Payment can be processed through both magical and Muggle means, but please avoid using magic in the shop at large, to avoid alerting Muggle patrons.
