“This is a huge location, with lots in stock! The staff wasn't the friendliest or most helpful, but I was able to pick up my order from hold with relative ease.”
“La librairie est un véritable trésor pour les petits et les grands amateurs de livres. Le coin pour enfants avec des livres musicaux est une brillante idée. L'ambiance chaleureuse et accueillante, avec une table et chaises pour dessiner, a rendu notre visite encore plus mémorable pour mon fils. Une très bonne expérience pour toute la famille!”
“Simply one of the best used bookstores I have ever been to. The prices and selection are amazing. It's clean and organized-ish. The staff was friendly. Definitely worth a stop!”
“What a treasure this place is. Was nearby and randomly searched for a record store. Has a great selection of new and used records, friendly service, and the bonus is it has one of the best offerings of manga I have seen in the area.”
“The store is open ! It as a new owner and moved a block aways.Very friendly owner and helpful to .The stock is a bit less then the old store but it is normal due to the change of ownership just let them know what you need and they will get it for you.Just go visit them next time in the neighborhood”
“The best small used-and-new bookshop that I know of around here, as of April 2024 - thoughtful selections, helpful and truly pleasant ownership and staff, sections well-placed and well-organized (even the relatively obscure scholarly shelves). Pricing is more than fair (most stock is used). And it just feels good to be in there. Like old times.”
“Travelling in Gaithersburg for the first time, I just chanced across this little trove. I’m so very glad I did. Not just because I got a couple of records; more importantly I got to meet Dave and feel the welcome he gives to all.”
“love this five below. they always have the blind bags i am searching for when all the other stores near me are out of stock. the people who work here are also very friendly and helpful. five stars my doods. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“An oasis of culture, reading, and peace! Large selection of books and magazines, very helpful staff and a café where to drink/eat while reading.
Bookshops are too rare in the area, not to cherish this one!”
“Great Russian bookstore, with lots of books within my area of interest (WW2 military).Prices were very reasonable, and the owner is very knowledgeable about acquiring books that focus on your particular needs.I found this establishment to be the best store of its kind in the Washington metropolitan area÷[ Rob Conway ]÷”
“They repaired a 100 year old bible in shambles. The binding was broken in several places, the cover was off . And my dad years ago covered the cover with gobs of tape - it was a horrible mess. But it contained writing from my grandfather who I never met (he died when my dad was eight). The team said it could be repaired and worked hard to take off all the tape and repair the original cover to like new condition. It is simply beautiful now. Sarah told me to save the cover for you will be holding the same cover that your grandfather held almost 100 years ago!. I highly recommend them - they care! It is a special treasure that is also now completely usable. THANK YOU!”
“It is a complete university in all majors and courses but they should put a map at the different entrances that shows where the areas are. I went to the bookstore 2 weeks ago but I had a hard time finding it and many people also told me the same thing so I asked Three people that I met on my pass through the streets inside the buildings of the MC university, but no one knew until I found the bookstore, they guided me where more or less and it turns out that I had parked close almost in front of the bookstore but due to lack of signs location I walked around the entire university I took a university tour.”
“As a lover of vintage cookbooks, this place has rows full of them. I will say that some of the books are a tad expensive given their condition, but the selection is impressive and makes it worth it!Nothing warm or inviting about this place. If you go in knowing that, you won’t be let down. Very much basement vibes.”
