A sweet store with an excellent selection and helpful staff. I always find lovely special editions and signed copies of books, including in their kids section. Easy parking and a nice coffee shop nearby!

Lots of variety, clean, prices are reasonable (saying this as a teenager). Staff are nice like other reviews say, and the items have good quality. It has everything for all ages and it looks like the place is taken care of.

Way more options than I expected! Friendly and hands off staff with really cool editions and variety. Found so many books I wanted here, even trendy books!

Very unfriendly older woman at the front there they have so many items it’s packed like a hoarding situation. Definitely will not be back to this store

This is wonderful local shop with great inventory and exceptionally helpful staff. The children's section and local section are both especially good. If they don't have something, they'll happily order it for you and the turnaround time is usually reasonable. Aside from books in every genre, this place also carries toys, games, jewelry, plushies, and other stuff. They also host events through the year, which are always worth a visit.
