Ministry Of Books is a book shop on Dundas Road in Ohingaiti, a small Rangitikei settlement, holding a 4.4 rating from 57 Google reviews. In a town of this size, a book shop is rarely a convenience stop; it is usually a browsable place where the stock reflects one or two keen readers' tastes rather than a head office order. That means you should come for serendipity rather than a particular title, and be ready to ask the person at the desk, because in small shops the owner often knows exactly where the good things are shelved. Country shop hours can be irregular too, so checking before a long drive is sensible. Set between Hunterville and Taihape, Ohingaiti is a detour for most travellers, and a well-reviewed book shop is precisely the kind of reason to make it.
