I really like this place!! I can't read most of the books bc I dont speak Mandarin Chinese but I still really like the place. The guy that was there was super sweet too. All in all, 10/10 I really like the place.

The Kingstone books location closed at my area and I had a hard time finding a Chinese manga store until I stumbled upon this location using Google...needless to say I drove to the area and here's what I'd love to add onto this review: -For anyone new, do consider that the location of the store is pretty hard to notice at a glance; I missed it the first time I got to the area and the parking area is pretty small. -Happy Books contains more rentals than books for purchase; I was told that only the books in the glass shelf (see pictures) are for sale while the rest are for rent. Please also note that this is a Chinese manga and book store so there won't be any English titles. With that in mind, this store is honestly a very relaxing place to be. It was quiet and they carry a lot of manga titles for rent as well as a few stationeries and anime posters. I managed to place an order for a couple of mangas the store didn't have yet but they could order them for me. The lady at the counter was super nice and could speak English as well. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to buy or rent Chinese translated manga!!

Current business hours as of May 18th, 2022

I've been coming in for years before they moved here and changed the name to Happy Books! I believe this place used to be called 漢牛. So many different novels and mangas to rent (all in Chinese). You can buy or order books here as well. The front desk lady is always very sweet and helpful. The plaza is small but the book store is really spacious inside. Hidden gem!

Collector's Paradise is more or less a classic comic book shop featuring new and backissues,…read moregraphic novels, posters, pins, and many other things. The emphasis, though, is primarily new and recent comics. Passing through on a rainy afternoon I was pleased to find its location is near a few important stops in Pasadena, and there's some parking available in the private lot. I was mostly there to check out the selection and see if they specialized in anything unique. Not to say they don't, but it's still a well-stocked store. I was the only customer and enjoyed the classic jazz playing in the background. Pro Tip: Most established comic shops have subscription plans paid annually, or one-time up front. A customer goes through Comic Book Geek to pick their titles and sometimes preferred cover art, and the shop pulls their requests and holds them until the customer picks up the stash.

Was visiting the area since my son is a "Big Bang Theory" fan, so of course, we had to hit up the…read morecomic book spots. Now, they were all no Stewart comic book store but out of all of the ones in the area, this was the best by far. Chill vibes, plenty of comics, easy access, and easy to purchase at the end. Only critiques I would give it would be to have a little more for the other collectors. And what I mean by that, have a couple more action figures, Funko, pops, etc. that will probably bring in some more people for sure. The other thing would bethe music playing in the speakers. Didn't care too much for the rock, but still all in all, nice place to go. There's plenty of parking and easy to find.

Nucleus is both an art gallery and shop that curates fun exhibitions and carries a variety of…read morebooks, zines, posters and various goods. I've been eyeing a few books for quite some time and recently picked one up! If you enjoy cartoons, games or just art in general, you'll be pleased with what Nucleus has to offer. I've been to several exhibitions and have enjoyed each one and always look forward to their future exhibitions. When looking at the gallery, there are several microscopes available to look at the art pieces in detail. The gallery maximizes its art space by displaying artwork on both sides of the stairway and features artwork on the second floor as well. Nucleus is definitely worth checking out if you enjoy art or love unique reads.

Apparently Nucleus expanded and opened a second location in Portland in 2016. [Parking]: Easy and free street parking. If parking is not available on Main St, then there are plenty of public parking spots and parking plazas in downtown Alhambra. [Space]: The space is separated into a bookstore at the front with various art books and a rotating art exhibit (Wicked in March 2026) at the back. All art on display is for sale. The bookstore sells mostly art books (both original works and artwork from specific anime, games, or pop culture) as well as various original greeting cards. Tickets are not required to see the exhibit and admission is free. [Conclusion]: A neat spot to see various unique art prints and a free exhibit. Chances are if you are at Nucleus then you are also here to check out other spots in downtown Alhambra (e.g. grabbing tea drinks or visiting other miscellaneous shops).

I visited Vroman's Bookstore during a girls trip to Pasadena, and it turned out to be such a fun…read moresurprise. We initially expected a typical bookstore, but it's so much more than that. As one of the oldest independent bookstores in California, it has a really special charm. Inside, there's a wine bar, a coffee shop, and even a cute gift shop upstairs, which makes it easy to spend a lot of time browsing and relaxing. While I was there, I got to listen to an author present her book and answer questions, which added such a unique and memorable touch to the visit. The store was busy, and you could really feel how much people enjoyed being there. The layout is well organized, making it easy to find books by genre. Upstairs, there's a spacious children's section, which is great for families. I also loved the section featuring Orson Welles books and posters. It was a really cool and unexpected addition. Overall, Vroman's is more than just a bookstore as it's an experience. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area!

Always a great night out to hear from authors. There's usually something interesting going on…read moreupstairs or in the wine bar! Let's do the numbers. PARKING There's a free lot out back. Plenty of spaces for everyone. SELECTION there's more than enough for me in my regular sections, but there are tons of sections I don't usually peruse. Like "wind chimes" and "backpack" sections . If you're looking, they even have snacks for your next read STAFF super helpful and friendly. If they don't know your book (they do), they'll ask a coworker who will know it and have all the extra details you didn't know to ask for. PRICE better than affordable: Supportive! (Readers and writers communities) SPACE There are a ton of accessible open aisles. Huge space outside (maybe for outdoor events?)
