This place is adorable, it has the most welcoming vibe and the kids books and okay area are absolute perfection. Its a perfect place to stop and let the kids play and read. Also, they have story time on Saturday - how sweet is that?

Great bookstore - one of my favorites in the city. Their selection is intentionally limited; it seems if a book makes it on the shelf here, its because someone at the store has actually read it and can recommend it. I like to think of the books as being pre-vetted for quality. They also have a cute garden center with succulents in the back. They let you bring in coffee, so I usually grab something from Trouble next door and browse.

This is a hidden gem! Such a lovely little bookstore. They were super friendly & helpful.Loved the simplicity & clean space so the books are the focus yet theres a wonderful selection of housewares and goodies as well, very visually appealing. Then theres the added joy of their backyard patio/garden space that I adored. I could spend hours hereTheres also a fun treehouse space inside for kidsI will definitely go back, please check them out

Hmm, I dont know what to make of this place.As one of the last surviving independent bookstores in the area, Im quick to support this place. Theyll have my allegiance, even though their selection can be somewhat meager, especially in the science section.Also, Im never quite comfortable here - theres always someone hovering nearby, which, like the selection issue, is a direct result of small quarters.Still, the staff is friendly and well versed, and the bargain bin never disappoints. Ill be back.

So happy to see a bookstore in the neighborhood and next to a great coffee shop no less! I briefly browsed today cos just saw it opened and already felt this bookstore fit right in with the rest of the small shops around here. The place feels friendly and just what a small bookstore should be and cant wait to return and browse away!

Great selection of books, including a really cute kids section. Love the houseware items, they owners have done a great job with the space. Open back patio, perfect for bringing in your coffee from Trouble Coffee next store while you sit and relax, or shop around.

So niche. Its a small shop with a small variety of pristine books. It was adorable and fairly welcoming but not my cup.

I have tried to visit this store twice and both times the owner has physically gotten in my space, yelled at me to leave and threatened to call the police. I have no idea why and there is no reason she should have done that. I noticed a book about Race cars displayed in the middle of the shop. There is a nice little reading area in the back like a backyard.
