“This is an amazing place. Jeannie warmly welcomes customers with an offer to show them where to find what they're seeking. Her store has a great selection of both recent and vintage titles, and I found many that I'd never seen anywhere else. You may have to sort through a double layer of books on some shelves, but the effort is well worth it. And the prices are very reasonable.”

“I can't believe I never knew about this little bookstore. Soooo many books of all subjects. They also have the best trade-in program (you get 50% of the listed price on the book) and if you have a credit and you buy a book there, you get a discounted price of the purchase. Definitely prefer their trade-in program over 2NC”

“This place has a cozy environment, very reasonably priced goods, and makes you feel very welcome. The best part is the community events hosted by Eleanor’s that bring in the kindest, friendliest people. I can not recommend this place enough, it’s a little slice of heaven”

“What a great place to look for media, they have a large selection of books and DVD's as well as comics and other media. The staff there are VERY friendly and helpfull when it comes to finding a specific title. They give great credit for trade ins and dont ask an arm and a leg for their used merch. Well worth taking a look for yourself.”

“I've never been to this actual store before, I always go to the one near Lynnhaven Mall, but truth be told I think I prefer this one in terms of how empty it felt. I felt like I had room to browse and take my time, I didn't feel over crowded with so many people just walking thru or stopping to talk loudly amongst themselves. The set up isn't the same as Lynnhaven but I found everything I was looking for easily. I do like that they also have a children's section here too. It's well stocked and my kiddos enjoy picking out books too. The only reason I gave it 4 is because the staff aren't the friendliest. The cashier checking me out had the strongest RBF, but when I shyly asked other questions about their rewards system he gave me very detailed answers. He didn't look friendly and I'm not sure he exactly wanted to be there either, but wasn't out right rude. While I could probably get a cheaper version on Amazon or elsewhere, I didn't want to wait for shipping and what not to get my newest trilogy. They do have a membership with tons of perks, but I don't think I'm that deep in my reading era where I can justify $40/year.”

“Excellent selection and well organized. The staff were super friendly and had some wonderful suggestions! For series, I noticed they stocked multiple/all books in a series, not just the most recent... which isn't always the case with smaller bookstores. Plenty of places to sit/perch while browsing. A fantastic indie!”

“It's a nice store that has a lot of stuff just in my opinion it's just that it doesn't have stairs which is inconvenient when the escalator is broken down.”

“First time browsing here and bought items from this store on the same day. The owner/shop keeper (I think) was cool and chatted with him before leaving. Kinda wished I bought the 2 items I've found/wanted at the store.Ended up buying and leaving a LoZ gacha and playing card.”
