He is rude not nice never smiles doesn't pay employees enough to survive. He doesn't like alot of people.

A plethora of books you can choose from. They create a pathway around the bookstore to ease people traffic. Definitely took time to read through books to figure out whats next in my book queue. All books are reasonably priced and not in terrible condition despite them being used. Overall, recommend! read more

Amazing selection and amazing prices. Friendly staff and great atmosphere. Always a great time here.

What a treasure! Amazing selection of just what I was looking for as gifts for friends who appreciate history (aviation), mystery (even found Perry Mason among the shelves), and (a 1950's) old copies of Popular Mechanics magazine! Great prices and helpful staff too. read more

My daughter was on the hunt for Harry Potter books to read, she looked up on yelp local book stores and gave a call. They responded with they have what she is looking for (used books) and she was able to get what she wanted. Lucky for us the rack was right up front by the register; bookshop person said HP is very popular and everyone is looking for them. So we snagged up some books, and she is very pleased with her purchase. Summary-Book store staff very help and easy to locate books. Fair amount of parking available, store neat and tidy. Staff helpful and kind. read more

See all

Small, relaxed and slightly cramped this bookstore has many options of used books. They can also order books for you if you need them to. read more

I have purchased over 40 books from this store, in only 2 visits. I am going back tomorrow. What does that say about the selection and quality of the books? Also price, I can't make promises but the books I bought were almost all hardback and almost all about $10. And all in EXCELLENT condition. My employer will pay for books, up to an annual amount. The owner helped provide additional documentation of my purchases to be sure my employer was able to reimburse me for most of my purchases. - so helpful and friendly... read more

Page Turner Books - Books at the store. - Bookstores Near Me - Kent, Washington

The owner of this bookstore was both rude and dishonest. We won't be going back. Save yourself some gas. Half Price Books (which there are many in the greater Seattle and Tacoma area) pay far better for books, and their staff is actually friendly. For Sci-Fi and nerd culture books both Magus Books in Seattle and Tacoma Book Center are far better options, and any Half Price Books can order a copy at a fraction of the cost. read more

Went in to look at this store figured it was a pretty unique place to check out. Started talking to the owner who follow us around the store and was increasingly rude. We were looking at writting an article about some of the local business owners and how they got started, owner refused to provide any information which was fine, however he then told us to leave because he had other customers (No one else was in the store) my associate was looking at buying a couple books as he has frequented this store in the past. I was not impressed. We were respectful; however the owner was an angry judgmental individual who has problems with people of color. read more

Such a cool little bookstore! They have a ton of used books, old books, collectibles and dvds. If you're looking for an interesting local bookstore definitely check this place out! read more

This is a great place especially if you enjoy science fiction. There is a great selection and Wayne is quite knowledgeable in helping you find a book with nothing more than, "Wayne, I wish to read an author I've never read before. Got anybody in mind?" This is probably what helps make this book store a true gem. read more

Never going to this store, & whoever else is reading this, I highly suggest that you don't go here either. Total waste of time. My husband & I are moving so we gathered up some comics that we sadly parting with. My husband & his friend (who is helping us move) went here & they were treated very rudely by the man that I assume owns this establishment. My husband had called ahead inquiring on the requirements to sell previously owned comics or books. The owner had stated that the books/comics shouldn't have any missing/torn out pages, highlighted/hand writing on pages, or any other type of damage to the book/comics that would deem it unresellable. He never mentioned anything about smells in the phone call. My husband & his friend went to the store in hope of reselling some of the items. They were treated very condescendingly by this guy & turned away due to the smell of smoke on the items when the smell of the store is like feces in a barn on a hot summer's day. Two books that we boxed up didn't have a plastic cover on them while the rest had a plastic covering on them & he only smelled one of them, which was one of the books that wasn't covered in plastic. Unfortunately, we do smoke but there are ways to get rid of that smell on books because I've used those methods of treating it before. Apparently, I guess that this owner is lazy & doesn't do any "maintenance" to anything that he receives, & throws it onto the shelves to sell it at any price that he posts just to make a profit. My husband & I should have done our research on this establishment & would have gone somewhere else than to here. From the other reviews that I just read, what I can add is not only is this man racist to certain people (husband & friend are white) but he is also very lazy & condescending who is just looking to turn someone's stuff into a profit that he overprices. read more

My favorite book store ever. I went in and asked about comics for my daughter, the owner and his son were so nice and helpful. I love this place! Also it has that old book smell. read more

Very large selection of books and comics. They have 350 and older playstation games. They also have those fun pop(?) Dolls.

New, small book shop. Predominantly rack-sized science fiction, but some specialty items within that field such as old pulps -- Astounding, Worlds of If, that sort of thing from the 1950s. Not a wide selection of genres, but within their chosen focus, fairly decent. Three stars for me means I recommend a place within its own city -- couldn't really say to someone else within the region (Redmond, say) to go out of their way. But for Kent itself, a fine addition to Meeker. read more

Great business to order from. Very happy with my purchase. Bought a book to give as a present and it arrived quickly. Page Turners books had the best price and free shipping. Nice. Thanks. read more

Great selection of geeky/nerdy memorabilia, and you could get lost in here looking at all the books (in a good way.) Staff is friendly and helpful. read more

Great selection and knowledgeable staff. Employee stopped working to come help us find what we were looking for. He also gave us really wonderful recommendarecommendations. Will definitely be back! read more

I came into the store to put together a care basket for a friend- I wanted to fill it with old DVDs and books so this seemed like the perfect spot. Upon arriving, we were not greeted by the person working. I figured he was busy and thought nothing of it. After browsing through the store we noticed we were being followed by the person working there, we were also the only people of color in the bookstore. We stood by the DVDs reminiscing on memories we shared and which DVDs we should get our friend when the person working there asked us to "show some respect" when I asked to who, he said another customer was waiting to look at the DVDs. We were not approached by this other customer, we would have gladly made way for him. Then, the owner told us to leave the store for absolutely no reason other than blatant racism. We asked the other customer if he was waiting for us to which he politely said no, it was the owner that asked him if we were bothering him to which he also said no. I will never return to this store. read more

A cute ma and pa shop. The selection is pretty large for such a small store but if you are looking for something specific either call ahead to see if they have it or go somewhere else. read more

Love local bookstores and there's such a wide variety I can't find everywhere! Great staff too

Picked up some cool comics and anime. Wayne knows his stuff. There's a non-commercialized cupcake shop across the street where you can enjoy reading your book with a snack. read more

My girlfriend and I Stumbled across this spot after dining at Maggie's on meeker. Has a vast selection of books of different genres. Owner was very courteous and highly knowledgable, he was kind enough to recommend a book which my gf enjoyed very much. Would highly recommend anyone to swing by and take a peak. Maybe you'll find something your looking for. read more

A small, independent bookstore, owned and operated by Wayne, a lifelong book lover. If he doesn't have it, he can order it for you. If you want to talk books, you've come to the right place. Used books are so much cheaper than new ones. The store's special strengths are science fiction and fantasy books, anime and collectible comic books, and a wide range of fantasy and science fiction collectibles, but there are children's book shelves and history book shelves and great American literature book shelves and... read more

So, I meant to do this months ago. Better late than never, right? My friend and I randomly found this bookstore after getting brunch with my family, as my friend and I were on vacation. We love bookstores in general, and were delighted to find this one right across the street from where we ate brunch, and were even more ecstatic about the large amount of nerd culture merch within the store. Funko everywhere. Books everywhere. It was heaven. The best part is that the owner supported local artists by selling prints of their work, and gladly talked up the artists themselves. In fact, I was really intent on two books I found, when I found a piece of artwork that I really liked. When I expressed my reluctance to spend a lot of money, he gave me a deal because he was eager to sell the artist's work, again insisting that she was fantastic. I am incredibly satisfied with my experience there because I got a great deal on a painting and two books. Also, Wayne, the owner, was really friendly and accommodating throughout my friend and my visit to his store. read more
