Super cute and comfortable. I went there to try and sell a book. FYI they only by hardbacks for a dollar and paper bags for 50 cents I believe. No matter the book. The gentleman co-owner of super nice..

I was so pleasantly surprised with this place. The staff was super friendly and the books were easy to find. There’s a wide supply of used books of every genre. They even have seasonal displays. When I checked out I even got a stamp card (buy 10, get the 11th free). Wish I would’ve known about this place sooner. Definitely will be coming back.

Owner was so helpful in finding some very specific requests (books with images of song birds for my husband who is a painter). He clearly knows the store like the back of his hand.

This is definitely a hidden gem of Idaho Falls. Every great town needs a book store like this one. It’s hidden away in an odd industrial park (complex?) that gives it a bit of a mysterious air to it all. Mostly because I’m not sure why it would be located here? Or what should be located here in general? Anyway, it works really well for them. The entrance is clearly marked and has decorations in the windows, helping it stick out from the whole complex. The inside is well kept and clean, and actually smelled really nice. And I don’t normally notice smells. Also, there are lots of good books and I found a book I had been looking for, for a great price. Plus they have a punch card program which always helps me feel good about buying books all the time. The only thing I wish was different was if they had something else a bit more unique going for them. Overall though, I think this store is great.
