Daniel Clark answered Joe Jungers's question: Check out this store in Yuma. https://www.sunnysbooktruck.com/ I got a similar vibe to Sunny's when I stopped at the Dam Roast House & Browder Bookstore in Boulder City, where I found the 1st two in the From Rust series. ? I'll definitely check them out! Thank you!
