Quaint and charming, I loved the organization of this darling little business! The prices were a bit higher than some of the used bookstores I am accustomed to, but it is a small business with a good selection and very personable staff so I felt happy to support! Downstairs you will find fiction, classics and poetry, mystery, manga, and some YA among others, while upstairs takes you to a cozy loft with a kids section, non-fiction, and more!

Our favorite bookstore!!! My daughter, who is closer to being an adult, and I have been coming here together since she was just a kiddo to sell/buy books and it is still one of the places where we get to spend quality time!!! Thank you❤️❤️❤️

I saw another review describe this place as charming, and I would have to agree. Made a quick stop here while walking around, and it was a fun place to check into. The book selection is vast, which is always refreshing about used book stores. The prices were fair, and the staff were also very nice. Definitely stop in!

What a fun gem of a bookstore. The bookstore is bigger than it looks. Quite a variety of books. Reasonable prices, too. Very friendly ladies who worked there. I’ll definitely be back when I’m in the area. 😊

After working with this store for years, dropping off books for resale, I've now decided to never use them again. The people that they let answer the phone should at least be able to speak coherently. If they can't do that, then please do not allow them to answer the phone. I finally got frustrated with her as she could not give me a straight answer. Sensing my frustration, the girl then decides to hang up on me. So her inability to answer basic questions, try to set an appt. and try to collect my email address, gives her the right to hang up on customers. Great way to run a business.
