This bookstore is awesome! Hilarious shelf labels and great pricing! Found two books that I definitely need to read on the $1 deal rack, and a Stephen King novel to add to my collection!

Nice place! They are a used bookstore so obviously the selection is gonna be limited by what they take in, but I was very impressed regardless. Lots of really good gender theory, which you might expect from seeing the storefront, but also a wide array of history, local books (guides, local history, poetry, etc), cookbooks, and fiction. The prices are so, SO low too. Great place, and I will definitely check it out when I'm in town again!

This bookstore is LGBTQIA+ friendly. The atmosphere is very welcoming, and the signs for categories are the best! The back witchy area even has a place to sit and hang out!

A wide variety of books, lots of local zines, from history, fiction, esoteric and tarot or oracle cards. The section labels are fun! Support local with this lovely book shop. Not much for Buddhist texts that I was looking for but it's still very rad and homey.

Love this independent bookstore! Great kids selection, my daughter loves their back room with spell candles and witchcraft books! Have purchased several gifts for friends, appreciate the selection of LGBTQI2S content!
