I went to this little bookstore as I was walking by the street. I came here just to get away and visit the town. This little bookstore is so lovely. It has a mezzanine second floor where they seem to read to kids, a nice display, and nice books for the kids. It's an old little store. They can order books for you if you want. They don't have a big selection, but it sure makes you feel the country living experience in a small town. Add to that, but if you are visiting or driving by, don't hesitate to stop to sit. It will be worth it.super helpful friendly staff

They have an amazing selection of books and the owner is super kind and knowledgeable. I love supporting an independent bookstore and I love how they tag banned books so you can be sure to buy one.

There is no need to repeat all the wonderful things that have been said about this bookstore. It’s all true! We visited on a rainy day last week, and really enjoyed our time there. One of the women helped my granddaughter to find a book series that was new to her. It was nice to see that they gave the younger kids, the same attention that they gave to the adults. We will go back anytime we are nearby.

Absolutely adorable little bookstore showcasing books that deserve to be read and not just those promoted by corporations.

I love books probably more than just about anything and during several recent trips to Deep Creek Lake, Swallow Falls, Seneca Rocks, Dolly Sods, Thomas, and Davis over the past couple of years I happened to stumble upon this cute little bookstore while out and about exploring several different breweries and restaurants in the surrounding areas. So after walking around the downtown area(which is small and quaint) and visiting several of the different specialty shops, local restaurants, cafes, and all of the antique/thrift stores(from whom we purchased a wide variety of new and old books from). I was stoked to see this place after not being in Downtown Oakland since my daughters mothers brother lived right up the street from this place. I know, I know. Haha :) First off, the exterior is very alluring and draws you in and that's what made me and my friend want to enter, look around and purchase as many books as possible because we both love a good bookstore and reading. Though that wouldn't be the case because when I opened the door for us to walk into this establishment we were met at the door by a super rude lady who said we weren't allowed to enter the business unless we had on masks, but not a single business in Oakland had this policy except them. Smh! Welp... You lost my money.

Small local shop with a great selection and lovely staff. They have thoughtful recommendations and are happy to order any books you want that they do not have. I visit nearly every time I’m in Oakland and they never disappoint!

Extremely good customer service and will take suggestions. Wide selection of books and a really big kid’s section. They have alot if not most of the bigger named author’s and some lesser knowns authors. I would recommend this place to anybody. This place was very nice and cozy. (Side note- they could have a little more manga and manhwa options)

The options were broad. The lady working there was so kind and understanding. She wasn't overpriced either. She even put personal notes on some books. It was a cute shop. The atmosphere was calming and cozy. I highly recommend. I prefer buying all my books there
