“Loved this place when they had art galleries and love it now as a book store! As a book store, XIA has a great selection of books, with focus on AAPI authors. The store also greatly supports many local authors. All of employees are so helpful in recommending books. The in-store cafe has many delicious drinks, pastries, and snacks; the barista is always so friendly. I love grabbing a Vietnamese coffee and croissant while looking for a new read. Overall, this book store is a wonderful place to visit in the heart of St. Paul!”

“The older gentleman working was very helpful (he even got down on the floor to look at the bottom of a shelf to help me find a book I was looking for.) It's a fun place to poke around and they've got some interesting titles, but many of the shelves are filled with cheap drug store romance and mystery novels that you find in heaps at garage sales. The prices are a bit high, but I like supporting independent booksellers.”

“I'm moving so I cleaned out all my old books. Brought about 15 here to sell and they gave me 6 and a half bucks for them 😂 I was just happy to be rid of them. Very nice place and a friendly, helpful staff. It's a cool business model with a good philosophy of reusing and reselling books and media.”

“Explore Afar is a large convenience store inside MSP airport. I walked in to get some snacks and a soda during my long layover at the airport. You will find all kinds of snacks, drinks, sandwiches and other quick bites here. They also sell some souvenirs if you need one on your way back home for loved ones.Service is quick, and the price is the same you will find in any convenience store in an airport. I got what I needed here to survive the long wait.”

“Was cleaning out old engineering and Safety books after retiring. Didnt want to throw them out as there was still a lot of good information there. Was told that Books for Africa took them and shipped them over to Africa by the container. For example they have sent 400 containers to EthiopiaThey ask for a 50 cent donation per book to help cover the cost of shipping but I was so happy to have the books put to good use I gave more.Great charity!”

“Every experience has been positive! Staff are quick to respond to online orders and are more than willing to help with any issues with orders! The only “downside” is that (not at their fault) because of the nature of the store being both in person and online, sometimes the stock availability changes after an online order is placed. Again however, staff are more than willing to help you find a new size or item. I would recommend them to any and all St. Kate’s alumna and family!”
