From essential beach reads to compelling local history books and national best-sellers... it’s all here!<br />

HIGHLIGHTS<br />

WHERE IS IT? In the middle of Washington Street Mall, inside the City Center mall<br />

at the top of the escalator.<br />

WHY SHOULD I GO? Books and beaches go together like milk and cookies. But, in<br />

case the sun doesn’t shine every day, books and rocking chairs on rainy day porches<br />

go great, too! Point is, your vacation isn’t complete without a good read. And if you<br />

enjoy <strong>Cape</strong> <strong>May</strong> year-round, <strong>Cape</strong> Atlantic is open! This independently owned and<br />

operated business sells fiction and nonfiction, mystery and romance, and books for<br />

all ages. A plethora of local authors and artists line the shelves. You can pick up a<br />

Steve Leadley, while Weird NJ’s Guide to New Jersey will help you on your quest<br />

for all things quirky in the state. The store also stocks Exit Zero Publishing titles.<br />

INSIDER TIP They have limited space, but make up for it in customer service. If<br />

you’re looking for a title, and can’t find it, they will do the looking for you. Call the<br />
