The Book Loft of German Village is pretty cool! I thought they had a good selection. They had queer…read morebooks, books by different authors of color, and books with disabled protagonists. If you struggle with mobility such as climbing steps and navigating uneven sidewalks, crowded, and/or tight spaces, this bookstore might not be accessible to you. If you are plus sized, you might struggle to navigate this place as well. There was a teeny tiny bathroom on the bottom floor. You have to get the key (with a map to find the bathroom, connected to a large block of wood so it doesn't get lost,) from a cashier near the entrance. The bathroom didn't look the best but it did the job.

Whenever I travel, I always visit bookstores. This one was new to me and among the hundreds of…read morebookstores I have been in, I found their offerings to be some of the most unique I have ever seen. They clearly put a great amount of thought into what goes on their shelves and have a lot of written recommendations on the shelves. There also were a number of books that I have read and enjoyed (many of which were not necessarily bestsellers -- as I enjoy finding off-the-beaten path selections). Five stars.

Returned today and the dude with an attitude was working and he was extremely condescending and mean spirited at the thought of be bringing my bike inside. I asked if it was against the cafe's policy and he said it was just 'common sense.' Whether or not the cafe has an official position on bringing your own bike inside is not the picture i'm painting, I'm just really disturbed by the condescending attitude and self righteousness for wanting to bring my own bike inside for safe keeping. I was honestly shocked by the treatment. Incidentally, the guy has an accent and long hair.

It took me a while to figure out the system, but I did end up buying 3 used paperbacks by the late Maeve Binchy that I hadn't seen before, and that made me happy. The staff seemed very nice, and they were busy with customers who were selling books and buying books, as well as stocking books. I'm glad I stopped in.
