“It's not as big as your standard B&N, but that's what adds to the charm of this converted cinema, turned bookstore.
I easily spent hours just following the curved walls of books and I'm sure so would you dear reader!”
“EXACTLY what i need in my life. exemplary service. great vibe. thoughtfully curated inventory. looking forward to exploring their events and book club. it's such a ducking relief to have a local spot in Los Angeles where you don't feel conflicted or guilty for shopping at. hit it up. please support and grow with this business.”
“This is a fascinating store. Housed in a beautiful old building, it is packed with thousands of books, records and merchandise. There are some really rare and special books in separate rooms (one of which was formerly a safe or strong room). You can sell your books and vinyl to the store too. It's really very special and very different to any store I've visited before and is well worth a visit.”
“Convenient to the 33 bus line, and lots of downtown Culver City’s best restaurants, this bookstore is a must visit for bibliophiles that love romance. Elsewhere that might warrant an eye roll but at The Ripped Bodice, you’re in romance heaven. There’s everything here from beautiful, classic Jane Austen editions with gilt-covered pages to the newest, hottest romances topping charts at all major media outlets. There’s great attention paid to LGBTQIA+ books, both those about those who are and by authors who are. There’s a cute event space, there are stickers and gift items for the special bibliophile in your life (or for you!), and there’s no high pressure sales here. Just fellow bibliophiles, there when you need them. Or to finally ring up your purchase that’s far more than you planned to spend. This isn’t a place you leave empty handed!”
“Great little used bookstore. A lot of novels and art books. They even have some real cheap used books if you don't mind some really beat up old books. I got 3 books for $5 total from the bargain section. But they have their share of hard to find more expensive books as well.”
“Small hole in the wall with mighty superpowers to meet your bike repair needs. Have been getting my bikes serviced here for the last few years and am always awed by their incredible work and low prices to boot”
“just the way a used bookstore should be--crammed with books and playing great music. every staff member i've interacted with has been stellar. every time i come here and poke around i happily spend ages and find something great!”
“One of our favorite shops in LA. Wacko is the perfect gift store. From kitsch apron to esoteric books, from mushroom designed lamps to silicon finger puppet, weird socks and so much more, be prepared to spend quite some time in there checking all the amazing stuffs they have!”

I was on a time crunch to buy gifts for people and managed to get it all done (with complementary gift wrapping and everything) in one trip at this store.Considering the general quality of items at the store, I think the prices are super reasonable. Hits the sweet spot between higher end and tasteful without breaking the bank.Also shoutout to the two people who were working at the store - you were lovely and helpful!Will be coming back to get future gifts.”

“What a sweet book store! I happened to walk by and couldn’t resist getting a couple of books for my kids. The ladies working the store at the time were very sweet, friendly, and helpful. Parking is always tricky along Ventura, but this little place is definitely worth the effort.”
