“This is a fantastic gem in Hamtramck! They have a very good selection of new, more popular books and used books. Also a nice spread of local authors/topics. The staff/owners were friendly and welcoming. I’ll definitely be coming back!”
“Great little house made into a bookstore in Windsor. I didn’t think they would have one in this town but they do. It’s not quite John K King in Detroit but it has very good selection and reasonably priced secondhand. Roger the owner was very friendly and had some really great recommendations too! I got a couple to take with me. Excellent place in a town that doesn’t have a lot to offer.”
“I took my kid to pick out a book. He quickly found a couple books and was very pleased.
The shop is incredibly pleasant and the employee we spoke with was very friendly.”
“I was Drew and Emily's first customer at their pop up at Jazzin on Jefferson. I puchased Braiding Sweetgrass. I was thrilled when they took over the space on Michigan Avenue. We're fellow creative writing program graduates from Michigan, so the bookshelves takes back to the Hopwood Room, but one that has been decolonized. I mostly read nonfiction these days, but can't resist the occasional book of poems. PS: they have a $10 clearance shelf.”
“My go to book store in Windsor. Staff is amazing and always have recomendations in the store. Walkable area, lots of events held in store with local authors. Used book selection is great, and they buy gently used books.”
“I was in there today and a storm hit and the roof was coming off and rain was getting on everything my heart was aching for them I helped as long as I could to get stuff moved to a dry spot but they were in a very desperate situation. The lights started flashing and it was so intense! Please pray for the owners! As we drove away I saw more of the roof come off. I'm going in the AM to offer my help cleaning. God sent me there for a reason now I'll let him work through me to help as much as I can.”

“We need more people like Linda in the world. She is so funny and lovely. Her store is just as lively as she, with a variety of titles ranging from the classics to local authors. Stop by for a chat to have your day lit up with Linda's lightning wit and cracking book selection.”
“Being from the suburbs, we've never had exposure to any place like this. We meet the owner and a few others. Conversation was engaging and the atmosphere was relaxed. We came during the day on bikes and had no concerns at all. Go there, you'll have a rich time.”

“Ruben (the owner) is friendly and very informative when it comes to all the products in the store. He can educate you on basically all the products he carries and will help you pick out options that he thinks are best for you. I’m frequently in the store looking at new inventory and choosing new books to purchase. I will continue to be a returning customer!”

“Great shop and staff! I met Richard at a record show in Ann Arbor. He had a few things I was looking for but he encouraged me to get to his shop because he said that he would have a lot of it there, (I was searching for a wide variety of 45’s).When I got there he had my list and started his search. He easily found 50+ records that were on my list. He was awesome and kind. I won’t hesitate to head his way again. I’m not a record expert and don’t claim to be BUT Richard IS!Thank you for your help and fair prices!”
