The owner is very welcoming and provided some good suggestions for me when I was picking out a gift for someone. There's also a good selection of logic puzzle and word game books!
Well-curated selection of books that goes beyond standard bestsellers and leans towards book advocating for a more just, less racist, and more fairly balanced world. They have a cutie pie kids room and canned drinks to buy so you can sit for a spell. There was a helpful and nice staff member, as well. Happy my friend asked to stop in. Will visit again on my next trip into town.
Highly recommend supporting this wonderful book store! Staff is excellent and has great recommendations. They have a wide selection of books for adults and children, plus a great game and gift section. Definitely a must stop for books and gifts!
SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL BOOKSTORE! Especially this one, which is perfectly located next to Luna. They have something for everyone- literary fiction and non fiction, featured titles, and a great children’s selection & area. They do special events sometimes, like bookswaps that are super fun. The owner and associates are so pleasant and helpful! I love shopping here- there is always something new that catches my eye, because they organize the books slightly differently than other shops. The bookshelves feature and point you to titles that will peak your interest. The vibes are on point!
I visited Grand Books at their grand opening today. A woman owned business very close to downtown and right on the main street of College avenue was a perfect location! I reached at 10:30 and expected no customers but the place was buzzing with people of all ages and walks of life. With a kid friendly zone and books of different genres the store was a pretty picture of knowledge and learning! The owner Sara Somers has chosen different books which showcase not so famous author and pretty covers, so don’t be surprised if you don’t find your book selling titles in there. I personally loved the choices I was given and absolutely enjoyed my visit today!
