First - the heavy scent of incense here meant that I could not stay very long. If you have…read moreallergies to that sort of thing, heads up. However, I might try a future visit with a good mask to see if that lets me stay longer, because it looks like a really great and eclectic book selection. I saw several older ones that are hard to find. The store has lots of tiny nooks and crannies full of books that feels like a mini-adventure. This is definitely a "come get lost in a bookstore for a while" sort of place. I didn't see much signage and the one book I picked up did not have clear pricing on it so I'm not sure where they rank for that.

It is a magical space for those who love books and reading them. Every book you had possibly…read moreimagined reading (and hundreds you never thought of) are probably in this store. It is owned and run by Kalissa and her husband Vinny. They are kind and charming.

Adorable bookstore with mostly books for kids and teens. I love all the clear signage here!…read more Shelves are organized by age group with sections for different interests, so it is easier for kids to find a new favorite book about something they enjoy. Regular bookstores can be overwhelming for kids who may not know what to look for, but a sign saying "books for animal lovers" is sure to get some interest. There are also sections for "snuggle up and read picture books" and "I am ready for longer chapters and bigger ideas", for example. LOVE IT. The curated book selection has many inclusive books too, not something I see in most kids' collections. Although the majority of books here are kid-focused, I found a couple to add to my to-read list too. There is a small parking lot around the back of the building for easy parking.

We've been wanting to check this bookstore out ever since we noticed it across from the zoo. Today,…read morewe were drawn in by the trail of bubbles outside the shop. There's a cute area in front of the big windows for reading. The book collection is wonderfully curated. I saw a lot of YA and middle grade titles in addition to children's books, including books I never saw before. Meg was very helpful and friendly, and she encouraged my son to branch out with the first Tristan Strong book. I wish my other son - another picky reader - came with us because I think he would have been happy to see the range of inclusive offerings.

I was very happy with my visit to Gutter Pop Comics. First thing I noticed was the large selection…read moreof comics and graphic novels available. The graphic novel wall was stacked and broken down by genre, which was very helpful while browsing. The man working was super helpful. He wasn't sure they had a comic series I was looking for in stock. He looked it up on the computer and went down to the basement to get me the issue I was looking for. I also enjoyed the zine wall as this allowed me to browse local comic artist creations that you would not usually find. I wish I lived closer to this shop. One of the best comic book shops I've visited.

Great selection! I was especially happy with the fantasy and cookbook areas as I saw several…read morefavorites there as well as several on my to-read list. Aisles are clearly marked with genre so you can find your favorites quickly (or ignore the signs and browse everything!). I also loved the jar candles near the front counter, which have lids but you can take those off to smell the candles. Any of them lean toward a perfect "rainy day with a cup of coffee and a candle" vibe. Staff was friendly. The whole shop gives a very inclusive energy and made me feel comfortable and welcome. Parking is a challenge; find a parallel-parking spot down the street. (If you're familiar with the Elmwood area that will not be a surprise).

Parking is available on the street - and there are other great businesses within close walking distance too, a coffee shop, plant store, brewery, and more.
