Very friendly and helpful staff. Including the kitten. A wide selection of good titles with a simple layout making stuff easy to find. It also nice bookish stuff like totes and book marks, and lots of community events too. Good comfortable seating and hangout area. 1000% would recommend 💜

So happy I finally got to visit this shop after learning of it a few months ago. The employees were immediately welcoming and kind. There's a great selection, and I left with a new nonfiction read and some information about upcoming community events. Highly recommend a visit! I wish this had existed years ago when I lived nearby, but I will be stopping by again when I'm in the area!

Love this place!! What a beautiful and fun selection. Top notch graphic novel and non-fiction shelves. I think it will take a thousand visits to read everything I want to read in here. Thank god they have a cute reading space! The shop is also ADA compliant and has tons of parking!

First visit to this LGBTQ friendly bookshop in Marietta GA today! It smelled so good in there and the books were displayed so nicely! There was a wide variety to choose from and you could easily spend a lot of time looking through all the many good books on those shelves!! Will def be going back next time we’re down that way!! The owner was really nice to chat with as well!

I love this bookstore!! It’s such a cute shop, it smells really nice, it has a good layout (including several places to sit), an excellent variety of books, bookish merch (tote bags, shirts, hats, etc), a bookstore kitten (she’s adorable and very sweet), and the owner is so nice and helpful. I found books by a lot of great authors that I’ve never seen featured in a bookstore before, and there are also several works by indie authors and a good amount of signed books! This shop also has multiple free events every month, including book clubs, author events, and more (sign up for their newsletter, visit their website, or follow them on social media to stay up to date on what they have going on). This was my first time going to a bookstore that specializes in queer books and it was such a welcoming and amazing experience!
