Road the Blue line all the way to where we were supposed to get off. Walked to the store but it was closed. We were there at 11 but the store doesn't open until 11:30. We went walking down the street until it opened up. Found another book store which was really cozy, fun, and cute. Made it back to the store at 11:45. Store was still closed. Went into the record store for a few more minutes to wait. Still no one there. Went all the way back to our hotel and visited a different bookstore and bought stuff there. Thought the concept was pretty unique but lost my only opportunity to visit.

There's things to help anyone learn this hard language. A lot of items typically found in a bookstore. It has books of course. There's most by Chinese authors, as well as others that have been translated from other languages. A few are also in English. There's also magazines about culture and travel. Good if planning a trip to China. There's also gifts such as toys. Have to make an update about this business. It seems to have closed the physical location. This has turned into a store with clothes but you can still order from the website.

I've also gotten my parent's travel books to Australia here, and books for Christmas. They have a big selection of books and they also have CDs, and other trinkets here. They take credit cards, but are very reluctant to take them here. It's like she increases the minimum amount every single time. I guess I'd come prepared by bringing cash here. Sometimes they have their son working here who can speak some English, which is better than the other bookstore in Chinatown. I guess it forces me to practice the little Mandarin I remember.

The selection is not too bad, considering they are recovering from a flood. There are so many titles and a vast array of topics available. I found some classics, fiction, a wonderful selection in their non-fiction area, and translated books. They also provide you with lists of books that have won prizes or coincide with different regions in the USA and the world! I thought that was very helpful. It's a medium-sized store, but their displays are quite prominent. Everything is easy to grab (no ladders or staff needed to get to the high books). All the areas are labeled and it's visually pleasing. The staff was nice, too. Checkout was easy and they were friendly. Prices are standard of paperbacks and hardcovers. You are paying for an indie bookseller (I paid about $40 for two books, which includes tax). I wasn't at all disappointed with the price. They also have a loyalty program for those that are regulars. I really am happy I checked out this spot. It was beautiful and friendly. There was a lot of books and totes to chose from, it was hard not to leave with more in my bag!
