The Fernie Book Exchange is experiencing a lot of turnover lately. When you find a book you like, take it home to read. It’s free. If you have a book that you want to share, please drop it off at one of the two locations: Freshies or the Tea House.

Here are a few of the titles currently available at The Tea and Coffee House on 2nd Ave. Click on the book title for a description and reviews.
