“This independent bookstore is well-stocked and well-loved by the local community. A staff member is always available, and likely if you're reading this, more familiar with where a particular genre can be found than you are.An upstairs loft provides space for various events. My favorite at the moment is the regular meeting of the Banned Books book club.”

“Haven't been in this store in a long time. I had forgotten how lovely this store is and how many interesting items they have for sale. If you want to find something unique, this is the place to go! Amia was extremely helpful today in putting together a hostess gift for me. The items are first class and reasonably priced.”

“They have a extensive range of art supplies. It is a little bit more expensive that Amazon but if you need something rush and don't wanna wait for the delivery you can get pretty much anything you will need.”

“Stopped in to buy some children's books. They have a whole, very organized children's section. This is a beautiful store with a great selection of reading material. Located right across from the UTC mall with a big parking lot.”

“first things first, this bookstore is amazing. not dusty, not stale smelling, and is nicely lit. the lady at the front was kind and helpful. she escorted my 11-year-old to the kids/young adults section which was Harry Potter and just a few other selections. not much happening in the kids section, but there are many other sections that kids can enjoy like picture books/coffee table books. so, the books here are not bargain priced, at ALL. these are used books, but they are in excellent-to-unread condition, with prices that reflect their original msrp. all of the 6 books that we purchased (total cost $85 even with a "student discount" ) could have been purchased on eBay (specifically ThriftBooks) for a fraction of that cost. literally pennies on the dollar. a couple of the books weren't priced yet and the prices she wrote in on the spot seemed strategically high...like, tourist trap high. but, as tourists, the experience of browsing through these endless aisles of meticulously arranged old books for an hour was worth the cost? ehhh, not really, lol I'd suggest stepping in to browse, perhaps buy 1 book or maybe two just for the heck of it but don't do what we did and load up on these over-priced previously owned books especially if the books you choose don't already have prices written in the front cover.”

“Looks small and almost run down on the outside but it's a really nice little college bookstore.It is very nice inside and has lots of supplies, books and merchandise. The staff were very helpful and answered any questions I had about online orders, and course materials that we're included with my classes. It's definitely overpriced but all college bookstores are.Very good experience overall.”

“The owner is super cool, good selection of party favors and great pricing compared to the rest of the stores around town this place doesn't have the greatest selection of toys although it's got quite a bit of videos for rental if that's your thing and you don't have the internet I guess. This is a cool place never a creepy Vibe and cool people that work there so I get four stars you should check it out”
