“Lovely children’s bookstore that is quirky and clearly designed with young ones in mind. Staff is always happy to help or recommend books; cats roam freely through the store, and a few other animals call the bookstore home too. The best. :)”
“Really made me think. Will return again for more inspiration! Store is also thoughtfully organized (for example, cookbooks are by food gifts for sale); rich in character.”
“This is a great little metaphysical shop. Wide selection of books, herbs, and treasures. There is also Tarot and Oracle readings available at the back table. There is also a classroom that is used for various classes. I highly recommend the classes.”
“Dream Haven Books & Comics has all the fantasy/sci fi/adventure/horror you never heard of before walking in. Tons and tons of packed rows of books, including ones that are out of print, or signed by the author.”
“I hope this local bookstore continues to stay open after so many other good places in the area have closed through the years. Love coming in here. You can expect to pay the full price for your book unlike at a used bookstore or online, but it’s worth it. They also sell journals and puzzles.”
“Has an incredible selection of books, kind staff, and just a generally nice atmosphere. Hosts fun events for all kinds of interests. Inclusive space and content for all ages and reading levels.”
“Location has a great selection of all areas, including magazines, children's books and children's toys. Store is always clean and staff have always been friendly and helpful.”
“This is an awesome indie bookstore with selections in a wide range of genres. The owner is a honey but has a hint of sass. Perfect! They know their inventory and can order almost anything you want.”
“A cool little bookstore in Northeast Minneapolis. Definitely worth a visit for any bookworm or avid reader. They have some shelf space dedicated to local authors and some space dedicated to local crafts which is honestly pretty awesome. Eat My Words Bookstore also uses their space really well, the place has a very unique atmosphere that’s very cozy.”
“Appreciate the staff here, the game selection and the atmosphere. Definitely recommend stopping buy if your looking for books, games or a cool gift for a loved one! There weren’t any DVDs but lots of everything else though!”
“What an amazing and welcoming bookstore! It’s so nice to be greeted in a genuine fashion by someone who is interested in their customers. This is a charming little shop absolutely packed with paperbacks. It’s definitely worth a visit!”
“My buddy has cancer. Thanks to this place it seems that my friend has had some reduction of cancer in his lungs. I didn't say it cured him but it slowed down the process...cats claw! Go see this guy who works his potions right in the store. Tha k you man for what you do. Staff is friendly too.”
“The store is cute and quaint and has a large selections of books, collectibles, cds , and comics. I hadn’t been to this location before and I really enjoyed it!”
“Great tarot reading from Wildstar! It had been many years since my last experience with tarot readings done by others, which had been wildly inaccurate. Wildstar let me choose from many decks, thoroughly explained each card and its relationship to others, and even took pictures for me so I could recall the experience whenever I need to be reminded of the suggestions from the reading! I'll be back next time I have a question on which I need guidance from the Universe!”
“The store itself was ok. There was a large selection of books for all ages. My kids were overcome with joy and excitement from the children's section and all it had to offer. The lady at the café was very rude. She did not treat customers equally. I will leave it at that.”

“What a place! There was a wonderful blend of new & used books, including entire series but at used prices! I left with several books and a T-shirt, I'll be back.”
“I was so happy to be back in a Half Price Books after years living in places without any. It was welcoming and like seeing an old friend. I found more movies than my budget would allow. Quite pleased with my finds! Lovely, helpful, professional staff who helped get some sticky mystery gunk off of a dvd. Fantastic location. Am so pleased!”

“Wonderful bookshop. The staff is always helpful and willing to answer all my questions “well it had a blue cover and a murder by windshield fluid in it” type questions which is very much appreciated. Feels happy just to walk into a cozy place like that. 11/10 highly recommended.”

“I normally don’t do reviews, but i absolutely love this place. Knowledgeable and friendly staff, hugeee selection, and one of the first trans-friendly adult stores ive seen!”
“Awesome experience to include with my day of plans at the Mall of America. For context, I slept in the airport the night prior, so being able to relish doing a nice peaceful activity was just what I needed. I took a book off the shelf and ordered a macchiato to enjoy while reading. It was great, a book and a coffee in a peaceful atmosphere is always a delight. Can’t go wrong when you walk into Barnes & Noble.”
“The owner and his bunny are so awesome and kind! Tiny little bookstore that is a little disorganized but totally unique. Seems like it came out of a novel. Zoro is a sweet bunny and definitely runs the place in his bunny fashion. Stop for the bunny and stay for the fun books you can find!”
“entirely volunteer-run and visibly dedicated to community aid & genuine leftist beliefs (rather than the more common liberal-ish vibe in minneapolis), this little bookstore instantly became a new favorite place to stop by when i'm in the area.”
“Great selection of leftist books and periodicals, including some used books. Expect to find friendly and helpful people hanging out, if you're looking for conversation. They carry the classics of theory as well as some newer fiction and analysis. Highly recommended.”

“I always shop clearance because of prices, I think their discounted books need to be discounted more frequently. But it's fun to walk through and look at all the variety.”
“What a warm and inviting place to spend some time. Grab some coffee. Browse some books. Head upstairs to the outdoors patio and relax and enjoy. Great space. Great books. Outstanding coffee.”

“Whenever I am traveling through the MSP Airport, I stop into this delightful little bookstore. The employees are actually readers who can provide information and qualified suggestions about their books, and although small, they have a remarkably wide range of fiction and nonfiction sections. Although obviously they charge full cover price, anyone devoted to supporting physical bookstores should shop here.”
“Outstanding store. The owner helped me pick out amazing gifts for my beloved. I’ll be going back for others in the future.
Great selection of cards and all sorts of keepsakes. That along with the personal touch and conversation with the owner was a pleasure.”
“Lovely store, my niece found some great books on tarot card reading and some fantasy fiction. I enjoyed a nice tall cold beverage from Starbucks. Staff were helpful and friendly.”
