    “A magical place! I love me some dark romance and thought I read almost everything until I came into this store. They have an entire ROOM of books I never even heard of yet. Yet on this specific trip I was looking for something a little more light hearted and told the person at the register what I was looking for and she gave me multiple options with a summary of the sorry line and come to find out the one I grabbed was signed AND by a local MKE author. Apart from books they have the best book reader swag throughout the store. On top of that one of my favorite authors is coming for a QA book signing next month! I also loved that that had a youth friendly book area. Super organized and clean. Will definitely be returning!”

    “Airport bookstores are supposed to be a last-minute bestseller, a bag of trail mix, and a bottle of overpriced water. Then there's Renaissance Books. Tucked inside the Milwaukee airport before security, this family-owned bookstore has been quietly helping travelers lose track of time since 1959. I picked up a magician book for the kiddo for all of $8. She loved it. I came to catch a flight. Turns out, I left with a magic trick, a happy kid, and the feeling that I should've arrived even earlier. Your gate can wait.”

    “The staff on the phone were marvelous, going so far as to verify my request if the book in question was actually on their shelves. (It was.) After ordering it by phone, I then drove to the store. The staff in-store were equally kind, helpful, efficient, professional and the book was additionally discounted during their Memorial Day sale: a win-win! Thank you, Half Price Books!”

    “This store has been arouud since I was a child and this was the first visit. I must say that I will continue to keep visiting. Might be a little pricey but they do have really nice selections of Christian based reads. And I really love their book brief cases. They didn't have the book I was looking for but I was able to find a great KJV Bible that had a little style. I definitely recommend this store if your looking for a good KJV Bible with style. I also noticed a few childrens books as well. Great store over all.”

    “Obsessed is an understatement. We went across town to visit this gem. The owner was unreal. She LOVES what she does, her community, and cares about children. The selection was unlike what I've seen in other cities. Huge original range for competent tweens. We will be back on our next trip to Summerfest!”

    “An absolute gem of a shop, with seemingly the most random combination of interests. Love visiting this store with my aunt--I, an avid collector of coins, and her, a devoted quilter. I have also seen the owners at a couple of coin shows in Wisconsin and Illinois, and they always have a nice selection and are just as eager to help as they are in the store.”

    “Very knowledgeable staff to help you find the right Bible to suit individual needs or study goals. Also, there are many books available to help those who are not saved, but are curious and desire to know who Jesus IS. There is also a thrift shop attached to the bookstore where you can donate gently used items.”

    “Gets the job done for a college bookstore. You can order online, which I would recommend. Lines can be very, very long at the beginning of the semester. Has what you need, but lacks options.”

    “One of the only places to get a wide selection of Panthers gear in Milwaukee. Many different hoodies. Women’s section is fair. Hats, t-shirts, mugs, etc. Major disappointment for many fans is that the store is not opened on weekends and there is no fitting room. That’s why I didn't give a 5 star rating.”
