    It's a journey through time and space. I come often to Joshua Tree for work, but never really took a look at the shops. This one was the highlight of shopping - especially for lovers of science fiction. However it has a great selection of books from fantastic, nature, kids, ufology, and many more! I can't wait for another chance to stop by and pick up some interesting reads.

    I don't often get to chat science fiction and had such a fun time perusing his small yet well-stocked store.

    This is almost certainly the smallest bookstore--new or used--you have ever seen. It is one small…read moreroom, smaller than a kid's bedroom. But there are some nuggets to be found here. The store is located in the upstairs shopping "mall," along with a bunch of either tiny stores. I would estimate at least a quarter to a third of the books are of the sci-fi/fantasy genre. Here is where you may find some very obscure but excellent out of print titles. The fiction section is also well-curated. The rest of the books are a bit of a hodgepodge (travel, humor, etc.). I found the prices to be very fair. Be careful, though: some out of print books are priced accordingly. Worth checking out, if you are a book nerd.

    Located in the village. There is a small entrance that leads you up to a collection of small shops…read more We have a home in Sugarloaf and really want to encourage our kids to read books. I'm so glad we found this place, there's a good selection of books and really good prices. There isn't an attendant around, but the cashier was very friendly and I even got a bookmark with my purchase! I like that books were organized and they had a section for young readers and kids. I even found a couple of hard back Nancy Drew books I read as a kid! There were a few classic Golden Books too. The middle section has some great table books. There's a mixture of classic and new and it was fun to search.
