I have purchased all my books here since discovering this place. Owner Aaron is a fascinating person to converse with as he knows his titles and most others inside and out. Need a new sci-fi author to follow? Here are a few. Looking to dazzle a dinner with a new cookbook? He's got a million and can tell you which books really pull it off. NOTE: Aaron can order just about any book you want if it's not on the shelves already. Shop local and bring your business to The Printed Garden. Having a solid relationship with an independent bookseller is worth its weight in gold these days.

Wow, wow, wow. I was completely blown away by this bookstore. From the outside it looks like an old…read morecar shop, but once you walk in, it opens into a whole new world. Every section feels thoughtfully curated into vintage, used, new, special editions. There is truly something for everyone. I instantly fell in love. The children's section was beyond adorable, and the vintage area pulled me in like it was that era. It's a big bookstore giving antique vibes.

We were from out of town and saw this cute store so we had to stop. The owner greeted us at the…read moredoor and warmly welcomed us to her store. The store was large with several nooks and crannies. The prices are mid to high. Not really a bargain store but if there is a book you are looking for, you'll most likely find it here. From first editions to hot off the press, there is something for everyone! I'll definitely go back.

My friend was showing us around Trolley Square. She said after lunch that we needed to head to…read morethis book store. The way it's set up was really cool! We were on the second floor entrance. Honestly walking in, it looked like a normal book store until she walked me to the back. Walking through the gate door is where the view changes. I was in awwww! How cool is the set up of this place. I had no clue it was a 2 leveled book store. It was neat looking at the lower level. The shelves prettily speckled with color cause of all the books. I was able to look at all the old school historical books when we were walking in and out. How neat to have so much history on your shelves! We were in a time schedule so I wasn't able to really dig into them. I have seen some pretty neat places while I'm here in SLC for a bit. I'm happy I got to add this book store to that neat list. I'm hoping to make it back so I can check out the lower level.

Amazing. I want to live in this store. It was uncrowded on…read morea Thursday late afternoon, and I thoroughly enjoyed being surrounded by great - used - rare books. Incredible selection. Found a good art book. Felt like my college days. Totally beats shopping books online! The staff isn't very friendly; they are more like librarians with attitudes. But friendly staff isn't what I look for at a place like this so it's all good.

Calvin and the whole crew are super friendly, caring, and--this is clutch for bookstore folks--great at helping readers find books they'll love. The curated collection in the main room is truly well-maintained and sourced, and they've got a ton of catalogued backroom-stock, too, so if you don't see something, be sure to ask for it! They've got a convenient ordering system and text me when my books are in. They buy used books for credit in the store in the form of a point system that is easy to understand. They have local authors and publishers (present company included!) in the store on a regular basis and especially on Sugarhouse Art Walk nights. The music is chill (instrumental math rock was on last time I was in the store, yay!), and the vibe is comfortable. Most importantly, I felt welcomed and like I could find a book for me in CBE. Check them out!

I love books! Barnes & Noble has a pretty large selection of books and magazines still on the…read moreshelves. When they first opened here, they had more selection than they do now. I'm guessing it's because of the "digital" age, and people just don't read anymore. They also had a really large section of DVD's and CD's. What are those you say? It's pretty well non existent now. One thing they have, that the toy stores don't, are a large selection of board games, and puzzles, that you don't see on the toy shelves at other stores that sell toys/puzzles. There is a small coffee shop inside where you can grab a cup of coffee, and sit back and read your book. Snacks and sandwiches are available as well. Customer service is lacking at this location, also they need more cashiers.

We were simply looking for crystals or potions to bring comfort for our mom as she goes through the dying process. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with such kindness and warmth. One of the owners, Andy, came over to help us and I can honestly say he was a true blessing. He wasn't just knowledgeable about the items in the store, he radiated compassion and calm. He listened to us with such patience, offered thoughtful guidance, and shared insight that immediately put our worries at ease. In a moment of heaviness for our family, he gave us peace, reassurance, and even a sense of lightness about this stage of life. This shop is so much more than a place to buy things... it's a sanctuary. We walked out not only with meaningful items for our mom, but also with hearts that felt lifted and comforted. What an incredible gift Andy and this shop have been to us. I am so deeply grateful we found The Conjuring Tree. Highly recommend to anyone seeking not only beautiful metaphysical tools, but also a safe and healing space filled with love.

While we came on our travel day, I could easily picture us spending an afternoon here with a cup of tea and a new book. The selection is divine, and is fantasy-heavy.
