I went here today and Avery was welcoming and extremely helpful! I loved the kitties and Zues even sat in my lap and told me his own story. Apollo rested in the front of the shop. I love the selection as there is so much to see and take home. They even have signed books. I highly recommend checking this store out. It is all used books, so come find your next read!
