“Great community minded bookstore. amazing book selection -- they always have the obscure book I am looking for. also consistently hosts community events to support neighbors. i haven't been in the basement but I've heard that's also cool”
“Cute place, HUGE selection of used books. A lot of them are older books so I didn't find anything for me, but I love browsing so I'll be back to find something next time! Super friendly associate working the desk. I dropped off books for store credit and they seem VERY fair in what they give you for your books.”
“During covid, I stopped traveling to the bookstore for Beth-Immanuel Church, but I just started up the Sunday school in February. I'm glad Carla at Baker's Bible Bookstore, put together my order and all I had to do is pick it up and pay.”
“They didn't have really old books from late 1800's early 1900's, but we're VERY helpful as to where to find them! Would definitely go again if looking for newer book!”
“Stopping by Brooks Books is always a treat! It feels like it’s more than a bookstore, with plants, coffee pop ups, bookish gifts, and a wonderful dark, cozy vibe. The displays are top notch, things are well curated and organized, and we never leave empty handed.”
“What a great place. Tasteful and thoughtful curation of contemporary print media. Such a welcoming atmosphere with friendly, knowledgable staff who sat me down with the best list of recommendations for exactly what I was looking for. Vibes are on point all around”
“Relevant, organized, welcoming, temperature comfortable, and remote viewing of content optional. Speakers and guest are local and from abroad. Not pressured, come as you are.”
“Hidden gem! Great selection of diverse books for children and adults. Black and brown characters! Local authors! Owners are wonderful! You can tell they love what they do.”
“I would definitely rate more than this. I was in need of quran and thats where I got this store contact. The person from the store helped me a lot in choosing the quran through call, as I couldn't be in person to the store and when I got quran through postal service it was exactly as it was mentioned. The price was very reasonable and I would definitely recommend this store”
“To register for classes, bring your student number, if you have one. If not, one will be assigned to you or looked up by staff. Go to the front parking lot facing Northline. Once in, go straight through the first hall and then slightly left through another set of double doors and then the first door to your right. Sign in at the front desk, then they will ask you to go to one of the computers to input your name and student number. Ask for help getting a student number if you don't have one. Classes are free to senior citizens 60 and older.”
“This is a rare and special place with a wonderful selection of literature and nonfiction in Arabic. Samar was so sweet, she took me around the store and found everything I wanted. I studied Arabic previously and my vocabulary is not great, but Samar was so patient and would help translate book titles as needed and explain what different books were about. She had a lot of recommendations and I ended up buying more books than I had expected to!
Logistics: I was there at 12 but the store didn't open until 10-15 minutes after. It is unclear how the pricing works as the prices are not listed on the books, but I felt they were fair.
There is no comparable bookstore where I live (many states away). This place is truly a gem and very worth a visit. I just wish I had budgeted more time to peruse!”
“They have good books I wish the price of books would drop all across the country but it's not the HFC book store problem they have a very good customer service”
“Ms Jeanne who has been at the bookstore for over 10 years is exceptional in finding what you need especially for vets/active military personnel,(when dealing with PO numbers) but this statement is all encompassing for various students. If you email her a question about a book she, responds relatively quick! She has been helping me since 2013 and I've just seen her again in 2023, thanks for all the help Jeanne!”
“Great place for all of your adult needs! I've been here a couple times and I've never had an issue. Definitely recommend this store. They have a lot of options to chose from and are very helpful and able to answer all your questions !”
“Easy location. Haven't been to a physical book store in a few years. Store employees were very friendly and helpful. Went looking for Bible covers. Was a nice selection to choose from. Also ended up purchasing different study guides and highlighting pens. Will be returning to look through the selection of children's books. Loved taking the great granddaughter and introducing her to reading and the love of books. Now have a great grandson to offer the same experience to.”
