Today was the first time going to this bookstore and I would give it 100 stars. The place is so organized and the people that run it are so helpful. I don’t know their names but the owner knows what he is doing and the lady that helped has been there 18years. They had all the hardback books of John Grisham I needed to complete my list. I will be going back next Friday to top off my list. Thank you so much for being there and helping. CHECK IT OUT……

I feel at home here; Awesome place to obtain practically any book you could want! The books out side in the front are way discounted and easy on the pocketbook! Love this place!

Favorite bookstore! Literally has everything for everyone. The owners are fun to talk to and are such nice people. Sometimes I get a fist bump when I come in and I don’t get nearly enough of those these days.

I have been in here 3 times now. The first time was on a super busy day, so hard to say then how it was. This past week I went back twice. I was VERY please with the atmosphere, and the pleasant people I came into contact with who worked there, Bob being one of them. I was able to take my time and look through what they had, and the prices were amazing. I am definitely coming here first from now on for my favorite novels.
