Coziest bookstore nestled in downtown Morgantown. The staff are incredibly friendly (especially the barista with the bolo tie)! Had the game changer series when big box stores didn’t! Plus they actually care about the community they serve

Such a fantastic bookstore! A Morgantown gem that could hold its own in much larger cities as well. 100% recommended for adventurous readers.

Such a lovely bookstore! Bonus points for the cutest kids section ever. Great selection, good coffee, and wonderful people. Really admire the work they do for the community. 10/10 stop in! *pictures were taken during their soft open so not all children’s books were on the shelves. they have more now!*

Best people around and damn good coffee to boot! If you want to find community, look no further. This charming local bookstore is a hub for folks looking to support their neighbors, lift up those in need, and work towards a better world for everyone. If that sounds like a lot for a small bookstore to do, IT IS! Which is what makes this place and the people who run it so incredible. Go support the type of places you want to see in the world and add this shop to the top of your list!

Extremely poor selection of books. I went here wanting to support a local shop but it's hard when they sell nothing worth buying. They said they could order whatever I wanted, but at that point I'm literally paying them a fee to do something I can easily do myself... I don't understand the service being provided there. The coffee was ok, not the best but not the worst either. I was really excited about this place but it ended up being a total let down. Very disappointing.
