Value: I have yet to find an over-priced book (or cd). Selection: this is a 'medium sized indy store, catering to more serious readers.' The selection meets that standard, especially for classics, poetry, and southwestern books. Service: in my 4 visits, the hands on owner Leo has quietly been at the ready for my inquiries. The store is well organized and well lit. Highly recommended.

So unprofessional. Disappointing all around.

She was having challenges with purchasing via a Canadian cash order. The staff at Garcia's were able to work out the exchange issue with her.

My gal didn't know it, but I was having trouble finding a hard cover of the first book of the "Game of Thrones" series. I figured if anyone had it, Beastly would. We arrived direct from driving up from Albuquerque. We found the place easily enough, and walked in to a wonderful smell of coffee. The fella at teh register also made all kinds of concoctions. We had to get a cup after that, and it was excellent coffee. It's a brightly lit spot which was great. Along with the coffee aroma it also had some pine like smells I imagine from the woodwork of the shelves. That or the side room they had a spot they were doing some construction on what looked like an expansion. And of course they had plenty of hardcovers, so with a bit of subterfuge my daughter got the book so we could give it to my wife. It worked out great. Next time back we will have to check out his bar next door, as it was closed at the hour we were in town.
