“What a pleasure it was purchasing from this family business. I was looking online for a particular line of fabric and came across this little gem of a store. I was a tad nervous ordering from a store I hadn't heard of before; but, didn't need to be! Unbelievably fast shipment, great service. I hope to shop here again in the near future. Thanks so much!”
“A really great, independent bookstore. The staff is always friendly and helpful. They've also got a wonderful children's section, as well as a large selection of unique greeting cards, and some really fun gift items.”
“This is my favorite bookstore! There is a community activity or author storytime nearly every day. Although this store is primarily for children, the YA and Adult room are always stocked with new releases. Also if you can't find what your looking for, Carla will gladly order it for you. When in Lemont, grab a coffee from Folklore and then walk over to Three Stories - you won't be disappointed!”
“Some very rare finds that you simply can't get at chains like HPB. Frugal is right, the prices and quality of CDs and books is amazing. I almost feel silly and like I'm betraying myself, but if you're a collector or like finding that one magic novelty, head over here. Service and atmosphere also was top notch 👍”
“I've been wanting to com and check out this comic book store. What I really like about it is that it is well organized and it's easy to walk through the aisles. I was impressed with their huge selection of graphic novels. We only had a couple minutes because we had an appointment to get to, but we thought it was a great place to shop. We decided to buy a mystery graphic novel (it was wrapped up and so it was a surprise) before we left. We will be back!”
“I love this place! The staff is friendly and very helpful. It's very clean and well organized. The Starbucks is great too. Very courteous service. I'm like a child in a candy store here. I want it all, lol !! Love to read!!!”

“This shop is really great!! All the variety of books you can imagine. If you're looking for some recent titles, you can find them at a reasonable price here :) (We got a Rick Riodan hardbound here for $12!)
However, I would give one less star for how a lot of older books are priced here, especially in the classic books and educational (math, sciences and art) section. Found tattered paperbacks or used hardbounds priced too high for their condition- ex. looks like $.50 but is selling for $7, which I don't think is reasonable.
But look around still! In the newer sections there are definitely something for everyone there :)”

“2008 Out of Office Countdown of George W. Bush (Calendar) -yes they published one! The calendar which stops on the last day of the current presidency is filled with funny pics of GW and all the word mangling EVER! "Sourcebooks stands today as one of the leading independent book publishers in North America." - taken from their website.”
“I visited the store and found a nice set of history books that are well over a century old. Each book was listed at $10. One of the books had damaged binding. I decided to try my luck and ask if I could get a discount on that book, and the manager pleasantly agreed and offered $5 / 50% off the book. Im very grateful for that! Thank you! This store is outstanding.”
“Love this place and the fact that I can get books for so cheap. Newer releases are a bit more expensive but definitely cheaper than Target or Amazon. And, they buy books!!!”
“A cozy book shop hidden just south of town. There is a good variety of topics and the woman working there was a pleasure to talk to. It's definitely a great spot for a book lover to stop in!”
“The best local bookstore in the whole Chicagoland area. They have a great variety and hundreds of author events every year. The events are all very organized. Welcoming to all. Ask for Sammie and she will hook you up.”
“The book selection is amazing! I was afraid there’d be a bunch of old and tired books no one wants, but not at all! There are so many newer releases in every genre. The prices and variety are excellent. I am definitely coming back for more!”
“Under new manager. Has school supplies, books, clothing and snacks. Usually open six days a week; Monday through Saturday. Check website for hours as it changes on the time of year for students.”
“When my son Joshua was receiving his first Holy Communion I needed to get a very special rosary beads for him and a prayer book . I ordered eveything over the phone with Sue and she was absolutely amazing and helped me pick the perfect items. In addition she also included in my order, completely free of charge, the most beautiful little wooden box/chest medal and rosary holder with a bible inscription from the book of Joshua. Everything arrived safely and was packaged beautifully. Sue will go above and beyond the call of duty to get the exact item one describes and if she does not have it in stock she will order it for you immediately. This is definitely the place to visit when you need that most unusual item. Quite frankly if I could give a 6 Star review I would do so with pleasure!!!”
“The best store ever. I was looking for the Chuckie doll at the Spirit Halloween store and they were all sold out. Spencers had what my grandson wanted. When he's happy I'm happy. Great store and service at Louis Joliet mall. I highly recommend this store.”
“This is a good store to go to if you’re shopping for calendars. Make sure you go when they are heavily discounted. I went today and it was 75% off. We were able to get two calendars for $6.73. Besides calendars, they also have puzzles, board games, etc. I recommend checking them out. Just a FYI, they do open later than some of the other stores. On Sundays, they opened at noon. Service was good. It’s located close to the kiddie haircut place.”
“Very nice staff members, but the correct hours for summer 2024 are not posted anywhere, even on the storefront.
They are open this summer 2024 from: Monday-Thursday from 8am-4pm
They remain closed Friday-Sunday
Had to find this out the hard way, hope this helps someone else before making the long trip out and leaving back for home disappointed without your books.
When open, the store layout is easy to understand and lends to an easy shopping experience. It is kept very clean and tidy.”

“I love this place so much. My sister and I always have a good experience when we go in to shop or browse books. The staff are always so nice and helpful. That is why this place gets the rating I’m giving it. However, there is one staff member who usually works the cash registers, her employee # is 8424, who is always rude when we go in. Yesterday we went and she was there. She was also rude with the two customers in front of us. She was being very impatient with the first one and she didn’t greet back the second one when she said hi. It was 8:45 pm and I understand that it’s close to closing. If that is her reason for being rude then that is obviously no excuse. I get it, my sister gets it. We understand. Even so, you should still treat people with respect, especially if you’re the last person a customer sees. This isn’t the first time this employee was rude. If this is her personality then she is in the wrong position for the company.”
