- New Releases and Bestsellers -

While we love seeing you in person at Surf City, we know you sometimes need books delivered to your door or your headphones. We partner with Bookshop.org and Libro.fm to handle our online fulfillment. When you shop through the links on this page, a significant portion of the sale comes directly back to Sugar Island, helping us keep our physical shelves stocked and our coffee roasting!

- Sam's Book is Here! -

Marythyme & Blackbeard is based on the ramblings of Sam's two sons during the demolition of the Surf City Swingbridge and the building of the modern concrete bridge. It addresses children's interpretation of changes in their environment and the natural coping tools they employ when the going gets confusing.

Sam's book was published by Archway, an imprint of Simon & Schuster, on November 29th, and is full of beautiful illustrations from local artists! Available now!

Marythyme & Blackbeard by Samantha Smith! A book about Topsail Island!
