Once Upon A Time

Online fulfillment only — no local pickup or in-person service. All communication must be through AbeBooks messaging. I grew up spending countless hours in school and public libraries, and that early love of books eventually led to what I do today. My inventory now includes more than 4,000 used and rare books. My goal is to keep books circulating and preserved — especially titles related to Puerto Rico, the Caribbean, culture, history, and Spanish-language literature — and make them available to readers around the world. All books are stored responsibly in a cool mountain climate (typically mid-70s daytime / 60s at night) to protect paper quality, bindings, and archival titles. Orders are shipped daily via USPS Media Mail with tracking, and most packages leave the same day or next business day. Our local post office in Corozal does an excellent job — many U.S. customers receive their books in 2–4 days. Thank you for supporting independent booksellers and for helping preserve Puerto Rican and Caribbean literature.
