I came back to take away 4 stars. What happened is abominable, it's as if the owner doesn't even care. But they do care about their agenda. Once, this was quaint, as Lido was once quaint. Now, it's all biased books that point in one direction only - a Leftist view of life. Lido is now about social media and looking pretty while you eat your sprouts. What I found was a small selection of books written mostly by those who believe we are not all equal, those who want to hold down and suppress by means of telling us we've been suppressed. Which is a lie. As we now see, it was all a lie. The choices in subjects did not divert, everything was calculated, everything was sad. There were no graphic novels as there used to be, no authors for an easy beach read or cookbooks for the mom who loves to cook but needs it to be fast because her kids want to play in the sand. It was sad. The clerk was mildly paying attention and was likely writing her dissertation on the woes of females & minorities in her high end sneakers and denim jacket. This was once a wonderful store and sadly, it died.

A cute bookstore with small selections of each genre. The lady at the front desk was really sweet and provided a lot of information.

All of the staff here are extremely friendly and helpful, the location is perfect since it's right next to the beach, and the store has a very diverse and interesting selection. Best independent bookshop I've been to! 11/10 recommend!

I’m always in search for local bookshops in Orange County, and this dainty bookshop, located in lovely Lido Marina Village, is now one my favorite places to find new reads. Definitely coming back and recommending it to friends.

To keep all our customers and our employees safe we require upon entry: 1) that everyone above the age of 2 wear a mask (as per the CA state mandate) and that the mask must remain above your nose as per CDC recommendations 2) each person must sanitize hands before touching the "oh-so-touchable" books (we provide refreshing Aloe sanitizer but the customer can use their own as well).

Do you have a copy of book "Can't Hurt Me"?

From the owner: Can't Hurt Me is a very popular book right now -- especially on Amazon.  Unfortunately, neither of my distributors carry it.  I also noticed that Barnes & Noble does not carry it in any of their stores (but offers it online).

It seems strange that your main website requires a username and password, since it prevents anyone casually interested in your operation from gain8ng useful information about book signings, etc.
