You wouldn't know it, but there is a large amount of comics and comic collectibles in this store…read more I have been going here since I was in elementary school because of the cheap used books, but more recently the store opened up what I like to call 'The Geek Area' which is where you can find some of the best comics in Temple (especially since Kopriva's Collectibles closed down). They also buy used books, which is great for those of us who don't collect a large amount of books. Yes, that means I have never sold any books here, but I have bought a lot. So continue selling them books that I will eventually own. Only downside to the place is the staff. They virtually ignore you until you get up to the counter and they also don't seem to be real interested in most geek stuff or culture, which is weird considering the back room. I mean, someone had to catalog all that stuff right? There has to be a geek working there somewhere! Finally, the smell. If you're a book lover like I am, you love that old book smell (the sweet smell of vanillin). You can smell the books going down the stairs to the front door. It's like a nerd lure just pulling you down into literary heaven.

Smells of mold. Caged cat. very dark and cluttered so you cannot get around. My friend got confused…read moreand opened a door he wasn't supposed to and the worker freaking out and screamed at him, despite his profuse apologies

This is my FAVORITE stationary store in Austin. I happened to wander in after a central market…read moretrip. I am in love with the journal selection. I bought a Bruno Visconti journal and fell in love, came back and bought some more. Returned and they were sold out, the employee was so helpful and let me know I could put in a request for their buyer to order more. She filled out a request sheet and took my information so that they can call me when it comes in. But this is so much more than a place to buy journals. They have a huge pen selection, including some fancy ones. Their seasonal/holiday decor is always so unique and fun. They have a huge kids section and I will be popping in whenever I need a gift. AND stickers. They have a wall of a ton of stickers! They have a party section, greeting cards, gifts for adults and children, and they also make custom paper products like invitations + more. The selection is great, the prices are affordable and nothing feels overpriced, but what really sticks out here is the great staff. (I believe this is a locally owned- women owned business! More of this please!)

"This is a hug that looks a lot like a card."…read more Great cards like this are few and far between, but I find such treasures at the Paper Place more often than not. Reliably. I also find gorgeous paper goods for table settings made by Hester & Cook, journals by Leuchtturm that invite me to realize "writing by hand is thinking on paper." It is a joy to look at their gift wrapping paper, but this I eschew in favor of vintage silk and polyester scarves that I buy in lots online. This is a solid source of terrific picture frames, seasonal decorations, and amusements for kids, such as stickers and paper dolls. I don't believe I have ever walked out of the store empty-handed. Parking can be a bit of a challenge given the store proximity to Central Market.

What a wonderful experience, walked in the door and was immediately assisted by two associates…read more This time I was there to drop off a FedEx package which they noticed me walking in with and immediately helped without me asking. A few weeks ago I was in here to get a copy made and the copy center was closed. An associate helped me with the self copy center sending it from my phone to the printer. I am grateful for them taking the time to help me as it was my first time doing this and I didn't quite understand how it worked. It feels like the level of service at this business has really stepped up this year.

It is always so nice to have the employees greet people as they enter the store and ask if they can…read morehelp me find something. Sometimes, I can go directly to the item I want to purchase. Other times, I need someone to not only lead me to an item I need, but also show me HOW to use the item! I also appreciate it when the employee helps me find similar items on sale, then lets me make my choice(s). Their friendliness and helpful attitude are always welcome!

Boutique stationary and craft store that you can mindlessly peruse and then find you buy things you…read morehad no idea you wanted. They have interesting classes you can take, too. I try to support small businesses when I can so I try to avoid looking at the price on Amazon, but i did in this instance and it was 30% more inexpensive in store for this particular item. Spending local and with small businesses is a conscious decision, so when you can don't be so price motivated only and think of what keeps a local economy thriving.

absolutely adore this store. i would buy everything if i could. i could spend hours here. i love…read morethat they have a workshop too and a club to join for stationary. 10/10. keep it up!

Baylor Bookstore…read more Great selection of Baylor shirts, clothing and books. Pretty much never leave here after visiting with less than 3 or 4 shirts per visit. People here are super helpful and friendly The items are very on track with what is happening whether it is homecoming, family weekend or start of school.

What an absolutely cool store! I discovered this store walking down the sidewalk to meet a friend…read morefor dinner at Haywire. I struck by the stunning mural outside the store and the color palate (white base with pops of color). The design pattern is minimalist, chic and eye-catching). There is a life size white tree in the center of the store. Wow! Apparently, Erin Condren is a well-known lifestyle brand known for high-quality planners, organizational tools, and personalized stationery. The store is having a sale up to 75% off. I will definitely return when I have more time to shop.

Margie is awesome! She helped build my kiddos dream planner. She was so helpful and kind love it!…read moreJust being in the store makes me feel more efficient. I'm so curious on how adults actually use these planners?
