Super cool old style book store. Nothing fancy which is great. Nice folks.

An independent book store that feels like a second hand mall book store. There is a nice kid space that is welcoming and comfortable. The shelves are well labeled and laid out with thought.

I was staying in the hostel down the road and while getting to know the area this bookstore was my favorite place to roam. Most of the staff were very friendly and great to chat with. They had a plethora of styles to choose from with amazing pricing. If I wasn't downsizing and driving across the country I would have purchased...a lot. Thank you for giving a great vibe in cooper-young!

A hidden gem! Very friendly staff and the store has a variety of books, new and used, children and adult, local and worldwide authors. The store is smaller than I thought it would be, but big enough to browse the shelves for an hour or two. Fun sayings tucked where least expected and the decor relates to books, even old typewriters on display. Chairs are throughout the shop. Parking is a lot is connected to several of the shops/restaurants in the area.
