There are 2 independent bookstores in Palm Beach, this is one of them and it is located on the…read moreNorth end of Palm Beach. I never knew this one existed and I'll tell you why... they don't allow pictures to be taken in here. So for reviewers such as myself who wish to show off their shelves of different authors or genres for other bibliophiles to see, that's not going to happen here. I was able to take a single photo of the book I purchased only. Obviously, I prefer the other bookstore because they made me feel more welcome. The customer service in this one was ok as well but let's face it, I am an African American Woman, and this IS Palm Beach so was I surprised that I was watched like a hawk? Nah. I will say this though... if you can't find whatever book you are looking for here try the Classic Bookshop located further down the way. Respectfully Reviewed.

They said also are doing for Dia de Los Muertos next and all the other holidays coming up. They have a cute little reading area and table on the side with plush animals for kids to read and play. Very cute aesthetic and fun place to take your child in when strolling around downtown.

You could literally get lost in this place!! Theres so much to explore and look at that honestly if…read moreyou wanna get lost from reality for a little bit this is the place! There is such a large collection of books new and old that that search is so fun. They also have dvds, blurry, action figures, collectible glasses and I'm sure so much mire that I didnt see. The owner is super sweet and helpful. If youre looking for anything specific he can point you in the right collection and if they dont have it hes also willing to search for it and get it shipped in on your behalf. I think prices start at $3.99 for paperbacks and go up from there. They also take your old books in. I can't wait to try it out and will update everyone as soon as I do about the process!!

I was pleasantly surprised when I walked in this bookstore. I was really shocked when I saw how…read morelarge it was. It seems like the aisles kept going, and there was a huge back room full of more aisles of books, And they have a nice section of comic books also which was cool. I thought the section for comic books wasn't as large as I was hoping, but still cool, and I had plenty to go through. Also there is a case with some rare ones also. The staff was really friendly and helpful. My husband found a really cool Star Wars item there he was happy. They also have a small selection of collectible toys. Went walking around more and they have children's book section with vintage books, I had when I was a kid definitely had to take one home. The prices are very good here and reasonable. If you're a book lover, this is definitely a good place for you. You will be pleasantly surprised. If I were in the area of North Palm Beach I will definitely stop in again.

The mini bookstore offered many colorful hardtop books on Travel, Sports, Boating, Art, Wine, Cigars and even a bright pink Barbie book. Interesting idea for a quick pick up but the books are big and heavy so not sure possible customers would want to buy on scene to carry around so the online store would probably be more efficient.

Raptis Rare Books specializes in rare, antique, and first edition books. As a young child, Matt Raptis had a deep love of history which led him into a future career of collecting and selling rare books. In 2016 Matt and Adrienne Raptis moved from Vermont to open their rare book business on Worth Avenue. In 2021 they moved to the gallery space they currently occupy on Worth Avenue next in Via Roma and in 2022, Raptis Rare Books purchased The Harcourt Bindery, the oldest and largest book bindery in the United States. The couple once purchased for $1 a signed first edition of "Catcher in the Rye" near author J.D. Salinger's home which they sold for $80,000. Other rare books that have been in their collection include an original 1859 copy of Charles Darwin "The Origin of Species" and an original printing of "The Cat in the Hat" inscribed by Dr. Seuss. Books in their collection have influenced generations and shaped history and culture. The books here are worth thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars. In addition to selling individual books the couple will consult with rare book collectors to help them to build their libraries. In an increasingly digital age it is nice to see that books are still valued in our society.

Their selection is great, they have a wide assortment of new vinyl and some great used vinyl as well. I picked up a used live Kansas double LP for $8, a very fair price. I also bought a special 2 LP edition of Nirvana Bleach with a 1990 concert, Operation Ivy - Energy and the Minor Threat LP. All prices were either at market or slightly below. Staff was pleasant and helpful. I also liked that they had a listening station where you could check out used stuff. Overall, a very solid five stars. I would absolutely come back here in the future.

I'm glad to see they moved into a larger location so it's not as crowded as it used to be and there's a much higher selection available. All the records were well organized and the prices seemed in line with what's available online perhaps a bit lower depending on what record you were looking for. They had a clean restroom in the back available to patrons of the store. Also the staff was very friendly and more than willing to help if we couldn't find something and even offered us some free stickers with our purchase! With being one of the only record stores in the area they are doing a great job!
