Great selection of books, the owner Viva was super sweet, helped me find the african literature section & recommended a few other fun things to do in the neighborhood. Thanks so much! :)

This place is awesome! I visit a lot of bookstores so this time, I was looking for somewhere unique and this place didn't disappoint. The book store may not look huge but there's so much here, everything you could think of. I walked away with quite a hefty purchase but was so pleased to find mesoamerican texts and also made a new friend! Her cat companion is so affectionate and adorable, it made the experience all the sweeter.

Excellent bookstore-- many lost and found gems in the piles. Well curated and maintained. The owner was wonderful with an artist's perspective on dustjackets, the life of books, and had a smiling-energy one can get lost in.
