    I love to support local Indie bookstores and this is by far one of my favorites in the state! It's…read moreright on Kings Highway and they always have events, book clubs, and great curated selection in multiple genres for anyone to be able to see. The book clubs are awesome and have truly provided a strong sense of community and comfort. Staff picks are always great to see and knowing that the staff care about the store and read alongside you, is a cool fact! Love supporting a woman owned small business, makes me feel like my money is going to a great cause.

    I'm sure I'll get a lot of flack from the people who live in the neighborhood with this review…read more Considered not posting it, but it's my Yelp page lol Let me start this my saying I absolutely love to shop locally and I'm always on the hunt specifically for independent owned book shops. Which is what led me here. On the phone the customer service was great, once in person (and twice at that) not much at all. There doesn't seem to be much black authors and influences in this bookstore- aside from the very few that you can see displayed at the front window. The bookstore is organized well, but the space is very small- seems a lot was put into the space and as soon as a few people start coming in, it can and will immediately feel crowded. This specific small town and area is one I keep trying to force myself to love. It looks nice to the eyes, but the area falls short each and every time. I purchased two books from this store (one that needed to be ordered) hence why I was there twice. I didn't wanna do it, but I desperately wanted the book and enjoy my money going towards a local, small owned shop. Won't be happening again. I thought the second time would be a charm. It's a lot going on (book wise) and easy to get frustrated to find what you're looking for (if it's even there). Was on the hunt for maybe 5 books and they had neither of them.

    You walk inside and there are books EVERYWHERE. This is my favorite type of bookstore- where every…read morenook and cranny has a treasure and you can spend a whole day investigating what they have. They were also so nice!

    Somebody tell me how this place has been in its current location for 20 years yet my husband and I…read morenever noticed it until last week?! This is everything I want in a used bookstore. It's not slick like a Half-priced Books location, and it is packed with treasure. Mostly decent prices for 2024 and although I would say the science fiction section is either small or hard to find because it's mixed in with a lot of fantasy, it does have one and I bought some things I'm really happy about finding. I even found something from my to-read list that I didn't think I was going to be able to. I also found a copy of an Anthony Trollope book I've wanted to read for a long time, but couldn't find in the libraries I've tried. My husband went straight for the Christmas section and added some really lovely things to our collection. There's no place to sit, but the very nice person working there (the owner, I think) allowed me to rest my bad back in one of her desk chairs. I wish I had known about this place when I had more people to buy books for, but I'm thrilled to have found it now and I can't wait to go back. Next time, I will treat my best friend to a visit here.
