I am usually not in this area a lot, but my daughter & I wanted to go check out this bookstore for…read moresome used books so we took the drive down. When we arrived, I realized I remembered this spot from when I was a kid, I just hadn't been back since I was younger. This spot is absolutely STUFFED with books, comic books, VHS tapes and more. You could spend quite a long time wandering around looking at all of the books they have to offer. It can be slightly overwhelming especially if you are looking for something specific as there wasn't really any clear guidance on where to find certain sections. We still had a lot of fun though wandering around and seeing what we could find. If you are looking for the prices, they are written in pencil on the inside of the books. You can find a mixture of mostly used books along with some new books. They have a cute shop cat that you can sometimes spot wandering around, or asleep at the front. The woman who was working the register the day we visited was friendly! They also had a cart out-front with a number of books that were free to grab. There is plenty of parking out-front.

Found this little gem in Phoenix last week when I was on the hunt for a used copy of Song of…read moreSolomon. I called and they said they have the 1984 edition for $6, which was a great price. Once I was got to the store, I had to explore. I think that if one were to regularly visit Books, he/she would find some rare editions and other gems. Also, they had what looked like reproductions of banned book announcements posted around the store: all were of classic novels that we can't imagine not having access to as students. (See photos: Charlotte's Web, Huck Finn, Fahrenheit 451...) They were quite entertaining, in a disturbing way. They had the effect of making me feel so grateful that past efforts of censorship in the US had failed. In 2024, this is still a real threat. Tiny stores like this one are real treasures. Let's keep them in business.

As a K-12 teacher, I know what to look for, and this shop has so many great options that foster growth, meaningful play, and academics in a fun way.

The owner, Jenn, is amazing and kind, and she hand-selects every item to ensure it has real developmental value. The staff are always friendly, helpful, and know the store inside and out. They carry an incredible selection of high-quality toys--Hape and Djeco are personal favorites--and are constantly getting in new, exciting products. The book section is also fantastic, with great options for all ages. They offer the cutest free gift wrapping and even sell birthday cards, making it a perfect one-stop shop before any party. You can really feel the care that goes into everything here. Highly recommend!

The shops on this street have so much to offer, but this one goes above and beyond. When I first entered the store I was greeted by an young lady named Haley, she was very helpful with everything I needed. If you're looking for a unique card, this is definitely the place to shop. This store also has a large assortment of candles, jewelry and they even had a beautiful black satin trimmed robe that I just had to have. It's a One Stop Shop for everything unique, a great place to purchase a gift! You won't want to miss this darling shop !

It's a small shop but full of energy and culture, felt even in the quiet opening hour on a Friday. I wasn't looking for anything in particular other than to support an independently owned business. I looked through the cute children's corner, the cookbooks, history, music, and more. The book that caught my eye and that I ended up purchasing: When Broadway was Black. They also have a seed library, art to purchase, and more. Grassroots is located in downtown Phoenix and is not only a bookstore but a juice bar. Unfortunately, I was there early, and the food and drink window was not open at the time, but it's just a good excuse to return. They offer smoothies, fresh juices, coffee, and tea. The employees coming in were jovial and went out of their way to greet me across the room. As I checked out, the owner and I chatted about other bookshops that we've visited in town. He was super friendly, the kind of owner that truly takes pride in their business and make you want to support them. Per their social media, it looks like they host regular chess nights and have an upcoming open mic night tomorrow. Get out and support local Black owned businesses.
