Checked out the cutest little bookshop yesterday and honestly, I don't even know where to start…read morebecause there were so many wonderful things about this place. From the moment we walked in, it felt welcoming, and full of whimsy charm. One of my favorite things was that they had a wall dedicated to local authors, which I absolutely loved. Supporting local businesses and local creatives means a lot to me. They also had so many events happening for both adults and children, such a fun community centered space rather than just a bookstore. If you stop by, make sure to grab their summer bingo printable too. The staff was incredibly sweet, welcoming, and genuinely eager to help. They had a really great selection for both children and adults, so it felt like there was something for everyone. Another huge plus in my book was that they accept ESA, which is so helpful for families using those funds for educational materials along with pouring back into our community. She also shared that they have an outdoor patio space for event but due to summer temps it's usually more popular in the cooler months. Honestly, the only downside is that I wish I would've discovered this place sooner.

First, let's talk about how cute this bookstore is. I love the creativity of how this store was…read moredecorated (see pics). I tell people, "I love books. I love the smell of books. I love talking about books. I love reading books. I love being surrounded by books." I got to do all of this here. My son (4) was given permission to touch, look, and read whatever he wanted... Even ones way above his level. I'm glad I found this gem (thanks "Where's Waldo 2026 Shop Local Challenge")!

Nice store. Lots of old books, nor much new. But if you want something likely out of print this is…read morethe place. Inside has lots of stuff to look at, maps etc.

Okay, so here's the lowdown: this bookstore is kind of a love-hate situation for me. On one hand,…read moreI'm not really into the old books themselves -- like, the stories and info inside don't always grab me, and sometimes they feel outdated or just not my thing. But on the flip side, the whole atmosphere of the place is chef's kiss for anyone who vibes with that old-school charm. The shelves are packed with leather-bound books that look like they've got stories in their covers alone. The texture and smell of those vintage leather bindings? Pure magic. If you're someone who loves that sort of musty, nostalgic scent that only time and dust can create, this place is basically a treasure trove. It's like stepping into a cozy library from another era, where every book feels like a mini relic. So yeah, if you're not fussed about the content but totally into the aesthetic -- the look, the feel, the smell -- you'll probably fall hard for this spot. But if you want fresh pages and modern reads, maybe it's not your vibe. Still, for anyone who's into the tactile, sensory side of books -- that old leather smell, the slightly rough feel of aged paper, the aura of history -- this bookstore is a whole mood, no cap.

From the moment we walked into this beautiful Christian bookstore, I felt the peace of the Lord…read moresettle over my heart. There is something so special about a place that honors God not only in what they sell, but in how they serve. Their selection of forever Bibles is truly remarkable. Whether you're looking for a study Bible, a journaling Bible, or a treasured heirloom edition that will walk with you through the seasons of life, they have it. What touched me most was their beautiful Bible engraving -- such a meaningful way to mark God's Word as your own or to bless someone you love with a gift that will last for generations. There's something powerful about seeing a name engraved on the Holy Scriptures, a reminder that His Word is personal and alive. I've always believed a Bible should be written in, highlighted, prayed over -- pages worn soft from love and study. A living Book. The gentleman who helped us truly understood that. He patiently walked us through different translations, layouts, and features, helping us find exactly what each family member needed. We left with two Bibles that felt perfectly chosen -- not just purchased, but prayerfully selected. Beyond Bibles, the store carries a large selection of faith-based items -- jewelry that speaks truth, hats and shirts that boldly share the Gospel, and personal gifts that encourage and uplift. They also offer Bible study tools, note-taking supplies, and home items you simply cannot find on Amazon. These are thoughtfully curated pieces that help deepen your walk with Christ and surround your home with reminders of His promises. The customer service is simply amazing. Every staff member was kind, knowledgeable, and genuinely joyful. The prices are reasonable, and there is no pressure -- only guidance and grace. If you're just starting your faith journey, do not feel intimidated. This is the perfect place to begin. You will be welcomed, supported, and encouraged. This isn't just a bookstore. It's a ministry. A place where God's Word is honored, where hearts are encouraged, and where you can find the perfect gift -- for yourself or for anyone the Lord places on your heart. I left grateful, uplifted, and reminded that His Word truly is living and active.

It's because the two old guys that are some of the most wonderful fellas I've ever met. They know where everything is and what they do and don't have in stock. I spent 2 hours in this store, part of the time browsing books and the other time just chatting with the fellas. Now, the best part is I am a romance girly and they have $1.00 Romance books!!! I bought 17 books today. 15 were Romance! They have thousands of books and a sitting area ANNDDDDD 2 cute dogs that are in store that will ask for belly rubs. Whatttttt!?!?!? This was an amazing visit to the bookstore and they definitely found a forever customer in me because I will most certainly be back! Probably on a weekly basis.

This spot truly is an indie bookstore, there is a little bit of nostalgia here and of course books. I love hole in the wall indie book stores. There aren't a lot of them out there so I get excited when I find one. I read a mix of genres. In the horror section I saw that they had a Dean Koontz special. I've always wanted to read his work and this felt like the perfect time to start. I bought my first Koontz books today because of this store. I will be back especially for the dogs and the great prices.

As always, I love a local shop, especially when it comes to comics. Ash Ave is a hidden gem for…read morecomics and their selection is niche. I will always find the issue or trade that I'm looking for specifically at Ash Ave. Everyone that works there is super friendly and helpful. I came in one time seeking the Absolute Batman Annual weeks after it was already sold only to find out there was one issue left that they were selling for a higher price point. I believe the owner was the one who offered it to me as soon as I vocalized how badly I wanted it and he kindly gave me a discount! When I was an avid collector, I used to come weekly here because they have some of the best selection of comics in the Valley. And they're pretty personable too. I appreciate business owners who care for their customers and always have a helping hand.
