Whenever I go into Malik’s, I’m greeted as if I’m family. Visiting family members see why I love going to this particular bookstore. Amazing items and friendly staff and owner. Don’t set a budget, I go over every time. Great books, cards, bags, cups, water bottles, bookmarks and so much more. Very educational... read full comment

This is my favorite bookstore on the Westcoast. The book selections are robust, the events are incredible, and the store is such a treasure. If you live in Los Angeles or are here to visit, add this to your itinerary.
