Between the Lines / More Than a Bookstore
"Juanita grew up reading and writing, encouraged by her mother who was a true bibliophile. As a child in Huntington Beach, CA, she went to the local public library every Saturday for Children's Story Hour. And she hasn't stopped reading since.She feels that in today's digital world, we all need to disconnect and go back to basics... everyone remembers what it feels like to hold a book in your hands and put pen to paper." -- from BTL online bio.
As former editor of Yucatan Today, Juanita is familiar with Mérida’s colonias; cultural events and venues; businesses, and more.
She
had her spot chosen for years, then in 2019, she was able to rent the
space at the corner of the building now known as Plaza Carmesí,
beautifully restored by the team Reyes - Larraín, one of Mérida’s
well-known architectural studios.
She opened Between the Lines (BTL) on Calle 62 at the corner of 53 on March 4, 2020.
As you explore the store, look high and low, and you will find treasures like Mayan masks, gorgeous coffee table picture books, and more.
Any bookaphile would love the assortment of beautiful journals, notepads, pens, and bookmarks.
One important section in any bookstore is a children’s section. The secret is adults love children’s books, too.
