Wonderful Things Come in Small Packages at Books Ink




What a pleasant surprise when I entered Books Ink at 1835 W. 103rd St, the long established Beverly shop. Like the Phoenix rising from the ashes this store was rebuilt and designed several months ago after fire damaged much of the store. Not only was it re-built but it was done with the help of the community that came out to paint and rehab and help this established business and long time Beverly family. Now this cozy shop is a great place to shop for books, designer eye glass frames, affordable art and gift items. While you are there enjoy the free wireless Internet connection while you select or order a book. Books Ink can order any book for you! The Shabazz family is happy to assist and if you like to blog be sure to chat with Sulaiman (Suli)Shabazz while your there. This Morgan Park Academy/Columbia College Alumni is an expert in the media and has his own site www.blindiforthekids.com, full of news, photos and videos about new and cutting edge music artists and info. I was so psyched to meet Suli! What an interesting guy! You never who you will meet until you stop, ask and take the time! Beverly is fortunate to have this unique shop in it's repertoire, stop in soon! PH: 773-629-6919 booksink@msn.com
