Anyway, we had planned a weekend trip to Carlsbad and searched for used bookstores in the area and Farenheit came up. So glad we stopped in and were able to walk out with a few books. Many vintage finds for all you collectors. Look closely and carefully as there are so many nooks and crannies in the shop where hidden gems can be found. You can find art books to cookbooks to history books. Please note that the shop's lease for this location is up soon. If you and anyone know of a space in Carlsbad Village, please contact the store owner Philip. He and this community deserve to have a bookstore. We are never too old or too young to learn. Grab a book and enjoy a good read! Lookout for the bargain books! And I loved the music played during our shopping experience, French jazz, which set the mood for our lunch in a local French cafe. Support this small business and stimulate the local economy and our brains!

I love all used bookstores. I may not love all of them equally but I still love them. Anytime I…read morecan buy books at significantly lower prices, count me in. This is a small shop but they've probably got something that will catch your interest. I bought a fat history book (no, not a book about the history of fatties, come on, now) for 1/3rd the normal price. And it is in perfect condition. I also appreciated the notes throughout the store encouraging the reading of banned books. Seems an appropriate message given the name of the bookshop. Plenty of free street parking in the area.

Paperback's starting at a $1.00 and hard cover starting at $4.00 and anything with yellow dot 50% off.

Luckily the library is right across the street but definitely will be back.

I also love that Barnes & Noble is dog-friendly and how convenient parking is, since there's a huge lot where this store is located.

The staff are always welcoming and ready to help me if I have questions. I'm impressed at how knowledgeable they are; for example, I had a few books I was looking for and without going on the computer to do a search she knew exactly where they were and walked me to them. Very impressive! And, I must mention the added bonus is the Starbucks café inside to enhance my B&N experience. I definitely recommend this B&N to the Yelp Community :-)

One of life's joys is discovering a great family run business…read more We stopped here after getting caffeinated at Dunkin Donuts across the parking lot. Another positive experience. Comic Stronghold is a son Gavin, and a Mom Trish and Pop operation. They carry all the current comics, from Patrick Horvath's Beneath the Trees, to all the new Marvel & DC titles. They even have a comfy reading area. Gavin knows his titles and is great with service and offering value to the buyer. For instance, his Ashcans are free and he has set up a table with free posters. Wow. Nice.

I'm going to start by saying I'm a comic book store snob. I go to a lot of shops and Comics…read moreStronghold has really grown on me. It's VERY welcoming and clean for new readers, kids, or comic curious individuals. For example, I dropped in after the new Superman movie came out and there was lively conversation. The owner was directing first time readers to All Star Superman which made me happy. Flash forward to this past weekend and went on Free Comic Book day(first Saturday in May) and the owner was working out of his mind to make it an amazing experience for all which warmed my Captain Cold frozen heart. Big discounts and people dressed up! I'm guaranteed to come back now that SoCal Comics has closed which ran one of the best Free Comic Book Days. RIP Uncle Ben & SoCal Comics. The Comics Stronghold is building a back issue presence and have discount bins and bundle packs which I love. I did not think this store would last when it opened, but they have endured and seem like they have regulars! Thank the Beyonder! I'm curious if they will really lean into the diversification and have Game/Comedy nights. The competition is tough being so close to Ninja Exchange and Comics-N-Stuff(DONT GO THERE). If I wasn't broke I would start a pull list from them because would like to see this shop succeed! Excelsior!

They are located a block from the Carlsbad Village Station - a transit hub of rail and bus routes meeting - easy to get here - easy on the environment also! They have readers available every day - Great values on, and a great selection of, minerals and stones. (See the photos of some of their lovely offerings!) My friend had two readings at the same time, one after the other: with two different readers - as I shopped - and was very impressed by both of them! Excellent Value. I had a free reading on my birthday: and that reader was gifted and extremely accurate - she told me things that nobody but Goddess and The Angels (And I) knew about ... and I'll vouch that it wasn't possible for her to 'be a phony' with the secrets that she told me! I found some great values while shopping there - especially on meteorites! I will return to shop again! Free mini-reading (10 minutes) on your birthday - must show ID. (And Handel's Ice Cream is across the street - I get a reading and then I go get Ice Cream {and the Public Transit is Free on my Birthday - Rosa Parks Day or "Transit Equity Day" [ https://gonctd.com/nctd-offers-free-rides-to-commemorate-rosa-parks-birthday-3/ ] - so I can easily get to this store by NCTD Transit Services} - now an annual tradition!)
