We love to support local businesses here at Orlando Mom Collective. Personally, I love to read, so local book stores and authors are close to my heart. I use reading as an escape, a safe place for my overall sanity and mental health. I’m always happy to talk books with you!
Our shop local guide is full of businesses that our moms love. And our guide to local authors was so fun to put together for you. We have collected some of the best local book stores, so next time you are looking to purchase a book for yourself or someone you love, check out a local spot instead of a big box store!
