I never write reviews but when you find a store that is your exact style, you have to. Such a cozy wonderful place full of beautiful covers of so many books I’ll never have the time to read, but I will happily buy. The people running the store were friendly and gave great recommendations. Such a pleasant surprise compared to elite “literary” bookstores. I just left and I already want to go back.

Lovely, focused selection offering sci-fi, fantasy, horror/thrillers. I asked for a recommendation on a Le Guin book as a first timer and was met with a really knowledgeable recommendation and multiple titles to choose from!! Will be back for sure 😊

If only I could award more stars. The selection is great and and unexpected variety. But the highlight was Jeremy, who was very enthusiastic about finding the right book for me. I'm so excited to read my new books, I never would have found without him. Even if I didn't want to go back to look at books, I would go back to talk to Jeremy about them.

Borderlands is exactly my type of bookstore. With a focus on horror, fantasy, sci fi, mystery... It's all the fun stuff! The staff were extremely helpful. I heard them giving several book recommendations of niche fiction as I was browsing. They are friendly, funny, and passionate. I picked up H.P. Lovecraft in the style of Dr. Seuss and Dracula illustrated by Edward Gorey. They also had several copies of every book in the Dune series, and several editions of nearly every Tolkien book. And of course, countless other more specialized interests. I wish I lived nearby. This is a bookstore I could spend a lot of time in, because almost every book is something I would legitimately want to read.

I recently went to San Francisco for a few days, and one of the main things I did was a bookstore tour. This stuck out as the best of all the bookstores there. I'm primarily a horror and sci-fi fan so they easily had the best selection fitting my tastes. Their prices are reasonable, the store is laid out nicely, and best of all they were able to ship the books for me. My books already just today. The books were packed perfectly! They were all wrapped with paper and boxed just right so everything showed up just how I found it in the store. Awesome 😎
