    This is a cute little bookstore with good vibes. Located on Cherry street in a lil shopping…read moredistrict, there is street parking but I'm not sure if there are any nearby parking lots. This bookstore has lots of new releases, lgbtq books, books about social justice issues, as well as a young readers section. They have three different book clubs that they host- new best sellers, sapphic book clubs, and birding book club! So cool!

    [Out of Towner Review]…read more If a bookstore felt like a HUG, this would be it! I loved visiting this special independent bookstore in Grand Rapids. I love when you walk in you are greeted with the 100 Banned Books to peruse through. I love a business that highlights banned books, as all booksellers should be doing this year. Although I felt like the selection was limited, I wasn't upset with this store. It just took me a little longer to find a book to purchase. I loved all the knickknacks (stickers, bags, etc) they had to shop from. The kind bookseller was helpful when I asked for help. She was completely open to offering suggestions, but I felt capable of finding something else. She was extremely kind and engaging with the few patrons that were in the store. Since I this was my first time here, I was taking it all in. The kid section was really cute and the layout is easy to shop. I enjoyed the staff picks and layouts of the different sections. They are on the smaller side, so I wouldn't expect to show up and find every single top book on the market. But there are PLENTY that I found enjoyable and enough to purchase two books! Small town charm, but make it books!

    Something there is that loves a vacation town rock shop …read more.. I feel a little sorry for the nice ladies who run this place, with various spiritual and Wiccan items. But to my children this place is an amazing treasured purveyor of beautiful rocks - a place they will root through various little cravable beautiful stones, gems, and carvings. A place they would rather go to blow their walking-around money than even the toy store. We could easily go four times in a one week vacation, crossing our fingers and hoping each time the credit card machine works. This may not be the target clientele of Mother Moon but they are friendly and patient and treat our children well, and that is all we could ask.

    My not-so-little-anymore (aka-14yo) cousin has recently begun collecting crystals and rocks, and…read moreshe was PSYCHED to see Mother Moon during one of our many trips into Uncommon Coffee while in town one weekend. I had seen the storefront many, many times over my years coming to town but had never gone inside so I popped in with her. I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked it. They're a teeny shop but they have a really wonderfully curated collection of crystals and rocks, both small and some as big as the whole of your hand. There's also a fairly large selection of incense and oils, jewelry and decorative objects, books, and even a small amount of clothing. My cousin recently participated in her first craft fair selling her handmade jewelry and she dropped a nice chunk of her earnings here on some really beautiful stones for her collection! If you're into the metaphysical or just want some lovely things to smell or look at, be sure to pop in and visit them! I will definitely make it a point to stop in and visit every time I'm in town from now on.

    A cute little bookstore that instantly took me back to my youth, with shelves packed full of books,…read moremagazines, and all sorts of unexpected finds. My first visit was today after we left the Tulip Time Festival, and with the entire downtown area absolutely bustling, stumbling across this shop felt like discovering a quiet little retreat in the middle of the chaos. I wasn't always certain about the pricing or exactly where some of the different genres and subjects were tucked away throughout the store, but honestly, that became part of the charm. There's something nostalgic about wandering through aisles, scanning shelves, and unexpectedly finding something interesting you didn't even know you were looking for. One thing I especially appreciated was the atmosphere created by the staff. The sales team was friendly and welcoming without hovering or making the experience feel uncomfortable in any way. They greeted us warmly, then simply allowed us the freedom to explore at our own pace. No one trailed behind us from aisle to aisle, no one pressured us into buying anything, and there was never that awkward feeling that you were being watched while trying to quietly enjoy the books that caught your interest. Instead, it felt relaxed and genuine -- the kind of bookstore experience where you can lose yourself for a while flipping through pages, rediscovering old interests, and taking your time deciding what deserves a closer look. It was really enjoyable to spend some time browsing and getting a feel for the stock they carry. The whole place has a warm, old-school bookstore atmosphere that's becoming harder and harder to find these days.

    This is bookstore was so darned charming and cozy during our fall morning visit. We were especially…read moreimpressed by the selection of children's books, and found ourselves wanting to buy many more than we probably needed. Located in the downtown Holland shopping district, it's an ideal stop between coffee and meals. We were also super impressed by their selection of magazines for all audiences- including kids. Overall, this spot is what local bookstore dreams are made of.
