Staff members provide friendly and helpful guidance, the store carries a nice variety of books for all ages, and they also sell gift items and greeting cards.

Check out their periodic author events too!

Right there staring right at me near the register! Best $5 I ever spent! Such a fun vibe! The nice lady behind the counter was kind and knowledgeable! Go check it out!

Overall it was a bit chaotic with books everywhere but it adds to the personality of the place.

I think the prices were fair although I didn't find anything I was specifically looking for (my to be read list is already pretty long)

There…read morewere some inconveniences, yet they were unavoidable & being taken care of the best they could. This is why I am rating this bookstore 4.4 stars - rounds off to 4 stars. Excellent customer service - 5 Stars. The owner of the bookstore was at the entrance and greeted me & others immediately when we entered the bookstore. Upon entering, I noticed many areas were sectioned and off limits. I found out later that they were placing books back in the bookshelves after they were taken away to repair broken pipes in the store and to prevent them from getting damaged. There were a literary jukebox and vending machine dispensing capsules with quotes - both out of order. I still had a good time wandering around the bookstore and browsing books there. I found a book in the clearance section for 25 cents and purchased it. Despite the inconveniences in the store due to the building being old and being repaired by the owner herself, I am impressed by how personable & amicable the owner was and that she was repairing the pipes in the store by herself instead of hiring someone to do it. I know when the books are organized back on the shelves that I will probably come back and spend more time here. This is a bookstore to see in Wilmington again and again.
