An enjoyable bookshop. Everything has been carefully thought throughout. From the time you enter you will see the books perfectly organised by genre, not only related to Isle of Wight but also a wide variety of topics. Not sure how they managed to do this but entering this bookshop is entering a journey full of stories of different types and styles and even the background music will make you not want to leave the place. If you like books it's very likely you'll find here something you like. As I walked through the bookshop it seemed as if it books and genres gradually moved from topics that are somehow related. I started looking for some specific genre I ended up finding something else that I liked but I didn't know it was there. That was genius! There're also different events taking place here. If you like books and you are in Isle of Wight you should consider go and visit this bookshop

Beware! Entering the delightful Medina Bookshop will delight your eyes and broaden your mind. As awash with local books as is the River Medina with boats, embracing children in their own special corner, and putting literature on the social scene with friendly, attentive service and Monday evening intimate music sessions, here is a place to linger, look and learn.

Lovely bookshop. Small but well chosen selections of Island and non Island related books as well as some old books in search of new homes.
