About The Unkind Raven
The Unkind Raven is a small, woman-owned indie bookstore with a cozy, quaint, and comfortable atmosphere. It offers an eclectic and fabulous selection, including new releases, latest best sellers, quality used books, collectible classics, and poetry books, alongside handmade gifts and signature candles. The owner and employees are described as a doll, super friendly, informative, energetic, personable, and a joy to deal with. The store is awesome and cool, with reasonable prices. Beyond books, it provides classes, book clubs, and an assortment of educational activities for both adults and children. It is a great place and a very needed local endeavor. One reviewer noted issues with a weird old smell that affected allergies, but overall loved the place. Visitors are encouraged to stop by, relax, pick up a book, join a class, or make new friends, likely finding it so comforting that they'll want to come back as frequent customers.

By chance found the quaint little book store. I was met by a very energetic personable young lady who was a joy to deal with. She gave me a new book to read option which I can't wait to start. I will definitely come back.
