I could easily spend hours here, and did, last Sunday! What gorgeous decor, layout, vibes and selection they have! Workers were really friendly as well. The prices of books were high though--no discount at all for new books. Fine to support local but this is why the library will still always be my favorite. What I was confused about is how the books are organized because it is not by author nor by used/new. I'm pretty sure new books were placed right next to pre-owned ones on the same shelf... I did enjoy all the gift and merchandise displays. They were all set up in a way that looked irresistible to buy! My BF bought this photography coffee table book he was really excited about and I got a children's novel illustrated by Jon Klassen (big fans!).

The people working there were very knowledgeable and friendly. The book collection alone is incredible. There is multiple room rooms and the sanctuary holds very old and important books and is definitely interesting to look around in. They also have a cute gift shop that has very cool gifts and handmade items as well. Totally a great find if you are looking for something fun to do, or just looking for a few books.

Located in a ville of sorts, this is a nice spot to just sit, sip coffee, and read or have a casual coffee date with a friend. I wish I were doing the latter. But at least there is no situation, no faux pas or facet of life that can't be improved with coffee. Barnes and Noble in Westlake is worth 4 small White Chocolate Mochas out of 5.

STORE CLOSING (at the end of June 2026) - 60% off liquidation sale when you pay with cash…read more HISTORY -- Clevo Books is a specialized bookstore that deals with translated works. Books written in other languages and translated to English are found here. They also have foreign books in the original language. This is a very unique bookstore with the only one of its kind in Cleveland. To find foreign language books translated to English can be difficult so we are lucky to have this bookstore in Cleveland for 4 years now. You can find books from the following languages - French, Spanish, German, Italian, Fulani (from the country Guinea-Bissau in West Africa), Russian, etc. OWNER -- The owner, Cathryn, has translated writings from German to English so she has a passion for translated books. In mid-June 2026, I found out that Clevo Books bookstore will CLOSE on Sunday, 28 June 2026, so I had to stop in to visit. I had been meaning to visit but with the downtown location, it wasn't convenient due to parking. I'm glad that I finally visited. PARKING - Free street parking is hard to find so I suggest parking at the PNC Center Garage which is only $4 all day (on weekends and $4 after 4pm or so during the week). SERVICE/AMBIANCE -- Wonderful and welcoming service. I visited on Saturday evening, 20 June 2026. There is a seating area at the back of the bookstore which is lovely. Upon arriving, I was greeted by an employee, Marc. He spoke to me about the books available. We had a lovely conversation about how he met the owner, his German/French background, and his passion for books/book curator. His French friend who happened to be in the store helped me pick out some French books to buy that wouldn't be too hard to read as I am not a fluent French speaker. BOOKS I GOT -- I left with buying 7 books, including 3 French books plus 4 translated books. I even got lucky to buy a book that the owner herself translated from German. The book is called "Giving Back" by Andrea Von Treuenfeld. I came looking for the famous Russian Crime and Punishment book but they had sold out. I did leave being happy with my purchase especially getting 60% off each book. The 3 French books that I bought were from the Foreign books shelf - the deal is buy 3 books for $10 or $5 each which is a great deal. So, the 3 French books that I got were already on a sale (no 60% off for those). WHY THEY ARE CLOSING -- Message from the owners on their website: "After four wonderful years downtown, we are closing our physical storefront at the end of June to transition into an online-only bookstore. We are incredibly proud of the beautiful space we built together, but high retail overhead means we must turn the page to a more sustainable digital future. Come visit us, grab your favorite titles before they are gone, and help us close this chapter with a bang. Thank you for your support!" -- Cathryn and Marc Overall, I had a lovely experience at Clevo Books and I'm glad that I got to visit before they close. It's unfortunate that they were not getting enough foot traffic to stay open. I think if they were at a different location besides downtown, they would have thrived. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 140/250 total reviews in 2026 - 981 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 24 June 2026

Great used book store!…read more My son is just starting to read, he loves books. Even though we have tons at home I like to keep his motivation going by buying new books for him to read. He loved looking through the books to find something he would enjoy. The lady at the front desk was also very helpful helping us navigate the store and sections. Kids books were about $2 and other books varied in price but all seemed reasonable for good condition books.

I left with 11 kids books for only $16 and my husband got 9 books for about $20. Many of the kids books were outdated but if you dig you can find some goodies. Plus, nonfiction is often a safe bet.

Kidding aside, I absolutely love this place. Staff is very friendly and helpful, and if they are able to, they order the books that I request, no problem. Their selection of books is fantastic as well, and the way they've separated the books by genre is a great way to keep things fresh and interesting as well as help me discover new books in my favorite genres. They also do monthly book boxes that I have never been disappointed in. Yes, the books are not as cheap as you'd find them on Amazon. But Jeff Bezos sucks and underpays his workers and treats them terribly, so maybe there's a reason why everything on that site is so cheap. On the other hand, at this store, you get to take a look at the book, especially if it's a different edition (some with sprayed edges, variant covers, or signed by the author), which offers a better, more personable experience at the end of the day. Besides, people complain about how there are no third spaces for people to go to anymore. The place has an array of beverages to purchase as well as seating where you can just settle down with whatever you've purchased and just read. I've also stumbled upon a few book clubs through the store hosting some of them, and met authors through the store's hosted events. This is the kind of business we need more of in Medina: community-minded, passionate, personable, and fun.

I don't think you understand how much I LOVE finding new-to-me bookstores…read more I was in the area for a market and I wondered around the area. My subconscious knew and it led me to this place. It's not a terribly large bookstore but it has all of the basic categories you'd expect and I'd say they're pretty well-stocked in those categories. From what I saw there weren't really secondhand books but so it goes. Did I come out with books? Of course I did.
