Alex P.

Still one of my favorite bookstores in the city. They have such a solid selection scifi & fantasy, poetry and analysis, literary criticism, an entire wall of cookbooks, great assortment of fiction, the list goes on. Just stopped back in and acquired a bunch of other cool reads, but I love perusing the entire place - so many fun finds. Love checking out the Andre Norton section.

Outside of the store. Don't be fooled though- it's great inside!

Wow, what a hidden gem! This was my first time to the bookstore and I spent roughly an hour in there. They have so many well known books in excellent condition. Furthermore, the prices are such a great deal. I bought four books and will definitely come back to buy more in the future. Staff was friendly and the process of buying was easy and painless. Highly recommend. Don't be fueled by the plain exterior of the building- inside is where you'll see the true value of this place.

I drove past this store and decided to Yelp it. Someone said don't be fooled by the plain exterior and they were not wrong! They have a really big selection. It was also very well organized. The prices were great. Now I'm on the hunt for more used bookstores!

Cute little bookstore! They have a pretty decent collection for the small space they have. Such good deals if you want a new book! Staff was nice. I would definitely go back!

Kayla C.

Great selection of used books and tons of other types as well. The staff was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend to anyone wanting to pick up good book!

It's 7:30pm on a Thursday - why are they closed when the storefront says open until 8pm?

The bookstore opened in 2014 and relocated to its current location in 2019. [Parking]: Street parking only - I got really lucky and there was a free spot available adjacent to the bookstore. [Atmosphere]: The bookstore creates an environment that makes visitors feel like they are walking into a jungle of books. The bookstore describes itself as an "artificial bird sanctuary" with the coffee counter shaped like a bird cage. There are a few tables for visitors to sit and drink their coffee. The bookstore is quite large and visitors can see a bunny in the back of the bookstore near the bear statue. [Restroom]: Restrooms are located behind the exit door just past the front bird cage coffee counter inside the bookstore. [Conclusion]: This is a really cute bookstore that caters to a more diverse and general audience. Two big thumbs up on the overall vibe.

You can sense just how much they truly love their customers with the design of the boutique, the thoughtful recommendations, the perfect pairings of candles, legos, tote bags, figurines, journals, etc. It also feels like a safe space, filled with women and children. They didn't have what I was looking for in stock but I found some adorable spooky candles for Halloween for $11-$13. As the world is increasingly taken over by AI, boutiques like this are gems that we need to support and protect in our community. Shopping small is the only way can ban together and keep the money in the hands of locals. I hope you choose to support local businesses like Buffy's Book Boutique too.

[Parking]: Easy and free strip mall parking. [Selection]: Throughout the store, visitors can find laminated cards with Buffy's Team Recommendations on books. For non-book items, the store sells stickers, bookmarks, chess and spirit boards, Lego sets, etc. For books, the store mostly focuses on young adult and fantasy titles. Other genres include self-development, magic & mythology, sci-fi & fantasy, general fiction, social science, business, horror, LGBTQ+, philosophy, humor, thrillers, short stories, biology, rare books, etc. [Other notes]: Check the bookstore's IG page for workshops, meetups, and Lego nights. In addition, the restroom door didn't lock for some odd reason. [Conclusion]: A cute bookstore and a worthwhile stop for hardcore bookworms. P.S. - The bookstore offers a stamp card with the 5th stamp = 5% off and the 10th stamp = 10% off.

RIP, mate~ // I have always fancied the solitary aspect of immersing in literary works. It is, however, concurrently delightful to strike up a conversation in an independent bookstore with fellow overzealous ''reading freaks,'' as noted in a reflection one is bound to catch in its chambers. 'twas such a pleasure witnessing Laytart being equally as enraptured as me when he spoke about death, oddities, and literature, hah~ x // When geomagnetic storms ignited luminescent polar auroras and when the lines of magnetic force between Earth and the sun intersected with one another, the center of the "X" spot where the lines met was where a magnetic portal formed: Avantpop Bookstore. Anyhow, if you are ever in Sin City, fire up your rocket's spark igniters and make your way to new land. Quoting Aunt Ida from Female Trouble (1974), ''The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring life.'' Upholstered with revolutionary scholars, the Beat Generation, Gonzo journalism, political defiance, banned classics, local artists and activists, rare gems, individualistic figures of all sorts, and the filth of John Waters, you are, rest assured, in for a ''Divine,'' queer experience. Parallel to that thought, if you ever synthesize a penchant for somber, witty poetry, luxuriate yourself in some of Avantpop co-owner, Laytart's, written works-best served with a joint in hand. In the course of frolicking around the shelves, you may wonder how much your birth mother despises you, but ahhh, you need not fret for you will be reminded Gaia loathes your guts just as much. When asked to solve for x, the Chris Korda piece that lies before you hints the solution: X = Save the planet; kill yourself. *Whistles Dada in the streets of Boston to the tune of The Smiths' ''Panic on the streets of London.''* At some point, I am quite certain you will start to hear Rod Serling narrate your life. Where has this review even gone? Oh, the places you will go~ x Overall, you will be departing from the shop glowing in the dark, developing an itch you cannot scratch, which forms a gaping hole in your torso, and leaving you to wonder if the intestine emerged before the tapeworm~ x
