Juanita Stein is the former editor of Yucatan Today, and as such was involved with tourism for many years. She recently made a lateral career move, to fulfill a dream of opening her own bookstore. And while in the most technical sense it might not be officially “essential” during this difficult moment, the art of writing and reading are more valuable than ever. Here is her message to you:

In today's digital world, the ultimate luxury is to feel the pleasure of holding a book in your hands, to put pen to paper in a beautiful journal, or to receive a handwritten note from a beloved friend. At Between the Lines English bookstore and stationery boutique - which opened on March 4 and closed 16 days later due to the pandemic - we believe that now, more than ever, these luxuries are no longer luxuries; they are essentials. We have a catalog of our products and offer home delivery.
