Finer Things Books

Possibly the world's smallest bookstore, Finer Things Books, is now open in Richland's Uptown Shopping Center. The store specializes in children's books; classics of literature, philosophy, and religion; and Latter Day Saint (LDS) literature. The very tidy store thus boasts five sections: "LDS," "More LDS," Children's," "Classics," and "Children's Classics," all in new and used form. Out front on the sidewalk, a sign reads in large letters, "LDS BOOKS," so that what obviously is lacking is a Timothy Leary section for dyslexic hippies.
