My dear friend took me in to pick up a book she had ordered. We walked in about 5 minutes to closing which isn't really like us but we knew we'd be in and out. This place is absolutely charming! The employee was so professional and sweet and timely in my friend's book pick up! I gave a quick look while she checked out but she was done in seconds. I made a comment about how I'll have to have a better look another time but the employee told me there was no rush and to take a moment to check around. It was sweet but I didn't want to impose. I told her I'd be 60 seconds... and within that 60 seconds I found a really cool sword bookmark (looks like the Skyward Sword) and a "fill out your own" recipe book which I've been desperately needing and wanting to do but haven't taken the step to do. I bought both. The place is a liiiiiiittle pricey but it's worth paying for a small business bookstore to help compete against the big box brands. Also they have so many events for people of all ages! Can't wait to attend!

My son and I were desperately looking for a book store near our home and low and behold this little gem. My son was thrilled to find the books that not even corporate competitor , B&N, have. Further, we appreciate shopping at local bookstores. Good on Paper for the neighborhood win! 🏆

I stopped in today to find a special book for my daughter. I was welcomed by a friendly employee who enthusiastically helped me find the perfect book. I was delighted by my purchase and I know my daughter will be too!
