“MY HAPPY PLACE! I love this bookstore so much. I come here when I want to feel like myself. ♥️ The cafe has the best lattes. I come here to sit and read my book with my iced latte. It’s like heaven! Toby, the manager, is the sweetest angel. The staff is spectacular and so sweet. I am in awe of this magical place! Peace, love, and literature! ??♥️”
“Fin was very personable and super friendly. The store was cute and an inviting environment. 100% recommend and they had a a great selection of books and signed copies. Along with trinkets and and items from small businesses. The work they put into verifying the authors and work that goes into the shop is amazing and super appreciated.”
“LOVE!!!!!!!!
As a book hoarder, when I saw the $1 book rack outside I was hooked.
When you walk in you are greeted by a bright an lovely atmosphere. Some comfy chairs & books on display in the most perfect way as to not feel cramped and crowded.
The front of the store had new books....but the treasures were in the back!!!
I love that they had a combination of new and used. I hit the $1 rack AND the discount rack AND I couldn't leave without a few blind dates with a book!
It was my birthday so my husband is gracious enough to enable my book buying habit and I started stacking away!
Whoever the 2 gentleman were who were working on Sunday March,1 in the afternoon - they were lovely!!!!!!!
I walked out with 3 blind dates and about 9 other books and cannot wait to return!”

“Yesterday my grandson, husband and I scheduled a tour at the Paranormal Museum. We arrived at our appointed time and were immediately welcomed inside by our tour guide, R.J.
First, we were asked about our interest in coming. My grandson is an artist and is working on a comic book about the Jersey Devil. R. J. said he would share a lot of information about cryptids and the Jersey Devil in particular.
R.J. Is very knowledgeable about the different artifacts inside the building. My grandson found the Jersey Devil information and artifacts both interesting and helpful for his research. My husband, an avid record collector, found the story about the phonograph intriguing. I found the stories about the women in white most interesting.
At the end of our tour R.J. took time to look at my grandson’s sketches and helped him find a book from their collection.
We found the tour to be well worth the cost and R.J. to be an excellent storyteller about the supernatural.”

“Was nice. Went for a graduation. Only issue. Whomever is the person that videos for the tv above should concentrate when giving diplomas on each student and not zoom out so parent ot friend cant see. All the students are the ones that worked hard and deserve to be seen”
“I love a Barnes & Noble, but this particular one is one of the only ones I have been to that doesn't have a designated clearance section. One thing I love most about going to Barnes and Noble is perusing the discounted section and finding hidden treasures there. I make the 5 minute extra drive the next one over for that.”
“Quick stop at this super nice small bookstore. It’s well organized, a wide range of books (including a children’s section) and also cute felt animals, puzzles, bookmarks, stickers and other nice little gift items.”

“I went into this store on Saturday evening, the 13th of December because of how absolutely welcoming it seemed. The staff could not have been nicer. I think it may have been close to closing time, but they never made us feel rushed. I purchased a Clea Ray messenger bag. It was exactly the size and style I had been looking for. Being a history buff, I loved hearing that it was made of repurposed military canvas. The bag I bought was made from a French mailbag. It’s so sturdy and roomy without being bulky or too big. I’m so happy with my new bag. I will be back! Merry Christmas!”
“Very nice store. I was unable to locate a book that was supposedly available, a staff member assisted me in looking for the book. When she looked on the computer that it was listed as available she ordered the book and it arrived early and in good condition.”
