“Took my son to the campus store to order his cap and gown package for graduation in May. everything was very well organized Even though there was a lot of soon-to-be graduate students at the store. We were able to get in and out in a short period of time which was cool. Go Matadors”
“As a woman of God, they are one of my favorite places to visit and search for what we occupy because my husband is a lover of reading and almost every time we go we find what we are looking for, such as dictionaries, books for our predictions and much more. I recommend them.”
“As the author of The Grant Colson Thriller Series and SERA Archives thriller novels, I always enjoy visiting standout bookstores, and Barnes & Noble in Calabasas at The Commons is a beautiful location.
The store has a strong two-story design with escalators leading up to the second level. The layout feels open and inviting, with a warm interior that makes it easy to settle in and spend time browsing.
One of the standout features is the manga section. It’s large and well stocked, and it really draws attention when you walk through. The mystery and thriller wall is also nicely set up, with a good range of titles and a clean presentation.
The café is a great space, with a mural of famous authors that adds character and makes it a comfortable place to sit and read. I always enjoy seeing my own book on the shelf here, which adds a personal touch to the visit.
The surrounding Commons area is upscale and well maintained, and parking is fairly easy with plenty of space available.
I also spent some time in the romance section while working on The Maui Desire Romance Series, and it’s a well-organized area that fits nicely alongside the rest of the store.
Overall, it’s a bright, welcoming Barnes & Noble in Calabasas with a great layout, strong selection, and a comfortable atmosphere that makes it easy to come back.”
“LOVE this place. Staff is very nice and knowledgeable. They have a great selection of sefarim in Farsi and for Edut Ha Mizrach. Prices are competitive and plenty of parking too.”

“More than a book/gift store. I will love House of David forever! It's been a place of precious memories for me for many years. We've moved out of state, and I still miss Phillip and Avram, may his name be a blessing forever?”
“I sign up during the holidays for their tamale making events and this past weekend there was a meet and greet with the cast of La Bamba. They also have a great variety of empowerment books to buy. In the city of Sylmar.”
“Like the other Open Book shops, they have a varieties of selections of books , vinyl records, and other knickknacks. The location is awesome. It is in the Topanga Village in front of the Fabletics store.”
“Very cute romance focused bookstore! Loved the variety of contemporary romance books (as well as all the colorful spines)! There's also a section in the back for fantasy and children's books, a section in front with baby books, and an adorable reading nook that has news article clippings about the owner. They also have a cute mini print machine at the front of the store, but it required quarters so I unfortunately wasn't able to try it.”
“We get our Bible Study group's books there, especially books written by Pastor McArthur. Also they've got a nice selection of books for children and teens.”
“This store is amazing! Lisa is incredibly friendly and the books and editions she has range multiple subjects and interests. I could have spent hours browsing. Friendly and a 10/10 Sherman Oaks Experience.”
“David and Stacy are charming, knowledgeable, and very kind. I have been coming here for decades, and need to find more reasons to keep coming back. Selection is deep and well curated from books to siddurim to handmade ritual items to MLB team kippot. Big range of mezzuzot and jewelry, too.”

Sin duda es una Iglesia Bíblica. Está la Iglesia en ESPAÑOL (ahí mismo en otro auditorio) hay 2 servicios en la mañana a las 9:00 am y 11:00 ó por las tardes a las 6:00pm en el auditorio de la Iglesia en inglés, (el servicio es en Inglés pero en caso de requerir, ellos te prestan audífonos para que escuches la traducción simultanea en Español)Son muy organizados... todo esta planeado de manera excelente!”

“after visiting many libraries throughout Los Angeles area, i was very excited! and happy to be able to be a regular customer at this store. I come to this store maybe 2-3 times a week and never leave empty handed. If they don't have what i am looking for, they usually have it shipped to the store within few days. How cool is that? REYNA is very polite and always happy to help out :) thumbs up for this store!”

“Somewhat limited selection. This is a smaller store in a strip mall on the corner of Victory Blvd and Platt Ave. There were about 10-12 medium sized racks that occupy the main are of the store in addition to a small shoe section, book section, and dvd/cd section, as well as a wall of mostly color-coordinated decor items.
While it was limited in quantity, I feel it was well laid out with quality items, some newish, some more used. I looked at the shirts mainly and felt that $3.99 was a fair price for the t-shirts I was most interested in. I feel I could easily have outfitted myself with comfy clothes to wear out or at home. The next time I need an inexpensive ensemble on the fly, I will definitely consider this place.”
“Book stores are nonexistent these days. But this one is a cool used book shop. They have various selections of books as well as some jewelry, and comic figures. Some other knickknacks as well. It’s located in the Northridge mall where the Disney store was once.”
