If you’re an avid reader who also has a love for getting dressed up for a fancy meal, today’s adventure will take you from the shelves to a seat at the table for afternoon tea. If you love books and tea, the combination of these two spots is sure to be a great day out for a little adventure.

The first stop in the day is at Around Again & Again Books in Wilmington, a store where books find second homes, third homes, and beyond. This shop has a passion to keep books out of landfills and in the hands of people who love them.

Even if you don't have a list of books on your to-read list to work from, the staff here is well equipped to give recommendations based on your interests.

If you have gently used books of your own and need to free up shelf space, you're welcome to donate to the shop during your visit. If you only take books home, no one will blame you. The selection is great out here!
