Lots of parking available on the Sunday that I visited! The owner graciously let me browse without pressure, and offered up recommendations based on what I was interested in. He also had several of his own publications available, one of which I took home with me. Lots of local authors in his inventory, as well as new and used copies of interesting and/or renowned titles from a multitude of genres. But the main highlight is their science fiction offerings, 100/10 would stop in again. Highly recommend for bookworms who have a penchant for small publishing houses!

I only had a limited amount of time so I had to rush through but I was still able to find 3 books for myself... all used but in GREAT condition. $15 for all 3! The owner of the shop was also amazing... super warm and welcoming! This will definitely not be my last time visiting the store because I plan to return on my next trip back to Joshua tree :)

The store is located in the upstairs shopping "mall," along with a bunch of either tiny stores. I would estimate at least a quarter to a third of the books are of the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Here is where you may find some very obscure but excellent out of print titles. The fiction section is also well-curated. The rest of the books are a bit of a hodgepodge (travel, humor, etc.). I found the prices to be very fair. Be careful, though: some out of print books are priced accordingly. Worth checking out, if you are a book nerd.
