Such a charming local bookstore with the sweetest owner!! I'm so glad I heard about this shop from…read moreTikTok :) I stopped by in search of a manga for a gift and ended up browsing the entire store for over an hour. The manga selection has a few mainstream titles but majority are older/niche which I appreciated looking through. If you're looking for material to learn Japanese, there was a pretty large section as well! Aside from manga, they also carry mystery, horror, non fiction, fiction, Western and a variety of spirituality/self help books. There's also designated sections for female authors, children's literature and Japanese only books. Some books will have handwritten price tags but overall pricing is more than fair and reasonable! Takeshi is so so kind and grateful for each customer that comes through and you can tell he appreciates getting to know everyone individually. Please come to support him and his wife! I've been meaning to pick up reading again so I will definitely be back soon :))

I've been here a couple times and checked out their selection. Takeshi is very patient, kind, and…read morehelpful. There's a surprising amount of Japanese-language books available, including manga, novels, and language-learning resources. It's all priced fairly. This place is a gem and deserves a visit if you enjoy reading at all, and especially if you enjoy Japanese.

You know when you walk into a bookstore and immediately know you're going to leave with more books…read morethan you planned? This was that kind of place. The selection was honestly so good. It felt like they actually know what readers are excited about because they had so many of the newer, popular books in stock instead of just one copy tucked away on a shelf. The staff was incredibly kind, and the best part of the whole visit was spotting a signed copy of Caraval in the window for my stepdaughter's birthday. It felt like one of those little moments that was meant to happen. Basically... if you need an excuse to wander Sutter Street and accidentally leave with a stack of books, this is it.

They had lots of other items you could buy like journals and things you get at any big store really just more personalized I was greeted when I walked in the door. Staff was very nice. I would definitely need an entire day to hang out in here. My photos don't do it justice and from outside, you cannot tell how big it is. I'll definitely be back.

In addition to providing funding for library programs and materials, they serve the community by promoting literacy, providing incredibly inexpensive materials for teachers, parents, and homeschoolers. They provide free reading materials to the military, our jails, senior residences and other organizations in our community. They assist those dealing with downsizing and handling estates for relatives in finding ways for personal libraries to have new use, rather than ending up in the landfill.

My wife and I drove a little over an hour to check out this Christian bookstore. I am writing this…read morereview after having visited twice and it is hands-down the best Christian bookstore in the area. Not only where we greeted with smiles and wonderful Christian music playing, the whole store was nostalgic to the old Christian bookstores we grew up going to. The store has a wide variety of all things for your spiritual walk ranging from books to pens to brand new Bibles and even apparel. On top of coming here to shop for a few things to take back home, they offer Bible engraving! I was able to engrave my name onto my brand new Bible, buy a brand new Bible and engrave it for my dad, and also buy two Bible cases for those brand new Bibles. I also walked out with a couple of Christian themed T-shirts, a handful of candy, and a huge smile on my face. Everything there is definitely worth the price tags, which aren't that much to be honest, and all of it is backed by good quality service. Each person that works there is very knowledgeable about all the items in their store and are quick to help and order anything that they may not have. If you are in the Sacramento area or even if you are an hour out and are looking for good quality Christian materials, you need to be here. Spread the word and let the communities know about this place.

This used to be a great store when Don was the owner. Don…read moreis gone, but his wife Renee is now running the shop. Now it is terrible. We used to buy childrens books here almost weekly, their selection is decent while extremely unorganized. (Don't trip on the piles of books). Don was great, as he was always friendly and helpful, and it was clear he had a deep passion and love for books. We would bring in trade books as our kids grew up and outgrew their books, and they would discount any new purchases based on how much trade credit we had with them. The books were always priced well and reasonably, and while disorganized, it was the closest bookstore we had. it was always fun to look for treasures, and chat a bit with Don. Things went completely downhill when his wife took over the business. She got rid of the friendly cashiers and replaced them with what appears to be her friends, who know next to nothing about books, and are constantly in bad moods or throw attitude. Last week we were in line and the grey haired lady rand up a guy in front of us, saying nothing, then mockingly said something along the lines of "This is where you give me the credit card so that you pay", without saying anything else to him. No idea why she was so mad as a quiet customer who was confused by herr terrible attitude. We wanted to leave immediately, but we had two books to buy, so we had to deal with the aftermath. Then when we were checked out, she grumpily told us the price without looking at us. What on earth is happening here now. When we got home, we saw that the books were priced 1 or 2 dollars more than the new price, so even with our discount, we were practically paying new prices for books in fairly poor condition. We will be going elsewhere in the future. We just wish a decent bookstore would open in our area so we don't have to drive to Half Price. Maybe when his wife gives up, it will prompt someone else to open a shop who actually cares.

It was nice to be able to support local businesses rather than having to order on-line. The prices were very reasonable. The owner of the business was very friendly. As a side note this business used to be on riverside in Roseville, but moved to this location. We will definitely be supporting this business again. The business is a little hard to find in the parking due the only sign being in the window.

They are usually priced the highest out of the local game stores I go into, but the lady in there will check market rate for us on single cards and older decks. My biggest struggle with this place is the service though. First few times I went in with my boyfriend they were not friendly, to him especially. The last time we went in there were two employees behind the counter having casual conversation with other customers for over 10 minutes and did not acknowledge us at the counter. We ended up setting all of our stuff down and walking out.
