Nice book store located in Ross park/Mccandless area! Any time we are out that way, we stop by to show our support. They have a good selection of books. The shop itself is always clean, cool, and quiet. They have all genres of books for adults and also have a young adult/kids section in the back of the store with a large selection. Highly recommend stopping in if you are near/from the area!

One of my absolute favorite book stores! The staff are always so friendly and helpful, the store is gorgeous and the atmosphere makes you feel like every book on the shelf is just calling you to pick it up and dive in. I never leave empty handed and especially love the free gift wrapping!
