I finally found the travel section because they're usually on left in the back. I go get a coffee. I asked for a latte with whole milk and an extra shot . While ringing me up, she asked again what kind of milk I wanted. Since I hadn't paid for my book yet i suggested why don't you make this while I go pay. At the payment area there were no cashiers , only one person off the side sorting books. The same one that was out on the floor, I'm trying to make noise so she heard me finally comes over and asked me if I'm ready, I'm like I'm ready! I go back to the coffee stand. They haven't made my drink yet. When I got home, I compared their price to what was listed on Amazon. They were $10 higher!! my first and last time at the store.

I went back Thursday and he put a book aside for me and there were not many books left in the shipment. The employee was so friendly and I greatly appreciated him holding and putting the book aside for me and he knew I was on vacation. Highly recommend.

This was a cool little store located at the Square Mall. We stumbled upon it and were thrilled, as…read morewe love finding small local book shops wherever we are. The shop is clean and well-organized. It isn't teeming with books, but definitely helped scratch our itch. I particularly enjoyed the section featuring books on local topics and local authors. These were fun to look at, and we were sure to pick up a few that didn't disappoint. Service was friendly. The woman working at the register was kind, friendly, and struck up conversation. Prices were a bit higher than we are used to, but this was to be expected given the touristy location. Overall, would return based on the friendly service and great local titles.

Outside the store front was easy to find and entrance labeled. Nice location being on a busy local beach street - I visited here on vacation so definitely can see that this is a great place to stop in for tourists while also could cater to locals. Inside, the store itself felt tidy with things put away and things looking clean. I love it when shelves look dusted and centered, and I hate to see trash thrown around the store (I know it is not store's fault that customer litters - it just makes me hate people in general when I see it). Genres and sections were labeled so it was easy to glance at the signs and try to figure out where things were. Things were marked and priced fairly considering it was a small business. The displays were adorable. I felt like there was a wide mix of different curated interests in each section. I adored the Off-Campus display and the Dolly Parton (RIP) display. I noticed a coffee shop area in front corner area of store - I did not purchase anything from it or pay much attention to it, but it looked like a plausible option if you wanted to get a beverage and browse. Staff was very helpful and gave great customer service. Very pleasant during checkout. At one point an associate saw me looking at items behind the register and offered assistance. Embarrassingly I ended up thinking I lost my water bottle in the store and the store associates kindly took down my phone number and offered to call me if they found it! It was very nice consideration although I will note that I found it in a different store I stopped in, so cannot confirm if they would actually call you if you lost something there. But they gave the energy they would! I ended up buying some plushies and stickers! Overall, I enjoyed my time there! Seems like a great friendly place you can go in to look for a specific book or casually browse. A wide multitude of different things to browse or purchase, products fairly organized and prices seem very fair!

Walking in, you're pulled into every corner of different reading temptations. From best sellers, to used booked that look barely worn, to a whole children's section to explore in the basement. I bought the sequel to a book a recently finished in the "used" section for $4.99! It looked fresh and hot off the press and snapped it up! Plenty of people had more than two books in their hands, and with their selection, I can see why. The staff was very personal and cheery, sharing their own recommendations when someone was indecisive. No pushiness or hovering over you; just friendly and welcoming. I could've spent a good hour in here, but I did enough damage in 30 minutes. Happy reading!
