I am happy that I finally got to go to a used book store here in Vegas…read more I was looking for a copy of When the Wind Blows by James Patterson. I received a message back immediately and they saved a copy for me. I came and explored. They have tarot cards, stickers, and lots of interesting books to choose from. I think that the price of the books are reasonable. I would love to return and see if they have copies of books from other authors that I enjoy.

Wow, wow, wow. This place made my adult self so excited and fully brought out my inner nerd…read more Let's start with the coffee, so good. I honestly didn't expect it to be this solid because the bookstore itself feels so elevated, but they absolutely delivered. The café was bustling on a Sunday afternoon, and the smell of fresh coffee hit you right away. I ordered a sugar-free oat milk latte and really enjoyed it. Now the bookstore... it's big, thoughtfully laid out by genre, and packed with options. It feels like an elevated version of Barnes & Noble but with way more personality. The lighting leans a little on the dim side, but it doesn't take away from browsing at all, in fact, it kind of adds to the vibe. There are shelves everywhere plus curated tables throughout, so you'll constantly find something new. They also have the cutest selection of items in glass cases, clips, jewelry, figurines, and other unique finds. Tons of book accessories too, like reading lights and bookmarks. And yes... there's even a bunny living its best life in there, which somehow makes the whole experience even better. It's the kind of place where you can easily spend hours wandering around, finding gifts, or just hanging out. Service was super friendly, and you can tell the staff genuinely enjoys being there, which makes sense, because honestly... who wouldn't?

They have an amazing selection, with reasonable prices. They also feature so many Vegas artists, authors, and poets. It's so nice to see a business that consistently puts in effort to promote local artists. Avantpop also hosts events!

It was such a nice event, that really showcased their support for our community. Please, stop in and support such an amazing local business!! Shwa and Sugar absolutely deserve all the love!

A local, world-renowned chef in Sin City, Chef Boy Satan, passed away…read more This rare original issue of Propaganda circa 1994 was formerly his, but Shwa Laytart of Avantpop gently passed the torch into my possession. 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

I asked questions, she responded with platitudes. No insight whatsoever. While the store is nice and staff were friendly. I think the business has some responsibility to hire people who actually do psychic readings, not just engage in friendly "elevator" conversation. My reading was a waste of money and I felt duped for paying for it. Beware. If you want a psychic reading, get a recommendation. Don't trust a business like this. We all work too hard for our money to waste it. This experience made me angry.

Tip: On-street parking is free from 11-2 for locals on weekdays. The 5 stars is especially for the owner who helped us, who was so welcoming and gave us the rundown. She said she adds new vinyls every week. Although it's a small establishment, there appears to be a wide selection of well-curated books. Check out the website for more info, including events.
