Fortunately, you don’t have to look hard or long before you find somewhere that sells books. The towns from Corolla through Ocracoke have multiple stores that carry books. You can pick up a paperback while doing your grocery shopping, or you can spend the morning sipping coffee as you browse through an eclectic selection of new and used books.
