I could spend hours in here looking at the wonderfully curated selection of books. This shop may look small, but it is PACKED with anything you could be looking for. The woman running the shop is passionate about her store, and her care and attention is evident in every corner. If you're the kind of person who is always looking to support local bookstores - be sure to add this one to your list!

Oh, how I adore this shop. Book lover or not, you will just be transported to another place when…read moreyou walk into here. It's so quaint, and unique in the best ways. They managed to use the small space in all the best ways to fit the most books. It's independently owned, so the owner is knowledgeable and willing to help with whatever you're looking for. However, if you want to just wander and get lost in the books for an hour, she lets you be in your own world. There's books (and other items) for all ages! Downfall (but very understandable side) of independent ownership- It has limited hours! But it's located right on the East Troy Square, so lots of parking and other shops and restaurants around to check out.

Fully support this bookish adventure as a lifelong reader with eclectic tastes. He's a BEYOND fanatic of Tolkien and "Lord of the Rings". I appreciate the wide range of genres, products (stationary, book related games, calendars, and quirky trinkets), and a fantastic clearance section. They are huge supporters of librarians and teachers which makes me be so happy. The service was amazing at this particular store. I appreciate the friendly and attentive help whenever I needed it. Great prices, promotions, and just a fun place to investigate. I could spend a significant amount of time browsing, discovering new and favorite authors, and still staying within my book budget.

At checkout I asked if they have a rewards program which they do not however right now they have a summer reading program promo (for adults even!) which is super neat! So make sure to ask about this and find a new book to read. I'm kicking off my summer reading from their LGBTQ display they had set up. Wolfsong - it's really good one day in and already 100 pages through it! It's well written and just keeps leaving unanswered questions which is why I can't put it down currently! Also the book itself is stunning.

It was dead silent for a period of time before she grumbled about the Christmas books being on sale, then proceeded to loudly crunch on nuts or whatever it was she was eating. Eventually another older lady came in who she seemed to be friends with and they were talking together. My husband told me he heard the lady working tell her friend "I don't trust those guys." I looked up after this and she was glaring me down through the window between the children's room and front desk. Immediately I put down what I was considering buying and left. Never have I felt so unwelcome in a store and am still bothered by the experience hours later. Regardless of this experience, the selection of books is very poor and there are no prices listed. Are we to assume everything is MSRP? Please tell me you aren't charging $30 for the years old hardcovers on display.

Inside, the store gives a nostalgic feel, with a few old Underwood typewriters displayed to give even more an old-timey punch. I easily navigated my way through the store, seeing the different genre sections clearly posted (Poetry, Non-fiction, etc.). I bought two books at $17.95 ea, but found others that interested me at around $24.95 ea. Not all books are sticker price labeled...on older books, they write a price in pencil inside book on front page! As a local (Wisconsin) writer, it's nice to find a bookstore that offers selected writings in an atmospheric way that big chain-stores just cannot duplicate!
