This was a nice visit…read more We came for an author book signing, we also left with his book and 5 other books. I liked the store, it was well organized and they were friendly. I liked that they had a section of books they let you look through before they shelved them. I'm going to enjoy reading this summer.

First of all, let me say - this is a great place to find books, dvds, cds, albums, etc. and at…read moregreat prices. But do not, I repeat, DO NOT take books there to sell . . they will rip you off. . . I took 40 wonderfully conditioned topical books there and they offered me $6!! Bookmans is the same - they do not give a decent price. You are better to donate and get a tax donation than to sell to places like this. I wish I had read Rebecca S. review of April 19, 2026 & Lina L's review before I took my books - what a waste of time to even stop there unless you are shopping!!

Changing Hands is not your ordinary bookstore. I've fallen in love with both locations. I initially…read morefound Changing Hands through their Phoenix location which needs a separate review of its own. Both locations have their own unique layout, so you can't even compare them. There is so much to appreciate. This one feels a bit more spacious and I found myself in the store for 2 hours just taking my time looking through the aisles. Immediately upon walking in, I was enamored by their setup and selection of books. They have every genre you can think about. Some sections that caught my eye: a dedicated kids' section and a spot for when special guests come. They're also connected to Wildflower so you can come before or after a sip and bite. Changing Hands is so special because they care about community and also support second hand! Staff is eager to help you out and guide you if you have a specific book in mind. You can bring your well loved books in return for store credit and they're quite generous with the credit. They'll take your books depending on the condition and if they need stock for that book. The cherry on top- I love that I'm supporting a local bookstore. And you even get a stamp card with a discount once you've gotten it all stamped out. Their prices are also affordable, and you can choose from new or used books which is nice. Most of their used books are in pristine condition. I support Changing Hands through and through and am so glad I ran across this bookstore. If you're a book lover, you need to go!

Spring Cleaning Can Be Fun! Packing up old items that are…read morestill in good condition and trading them for in-store credit is a great way to broaden your horizons while clearing out clutter. As a mom, here's what my sons and I think is worth knowing. The boys always say, "Mom, they have everything!" They especially enjoy the summer book club and the kids' section, which is filled with activities and take-home kits. Here's what you need to know: Electronics: Clean them, charge them, and bring all accessories. Original boxes are a bonus. It's a great place to upgrade devices or find missing computer parts, gaming consoles, and accessories. Books: They accept a wide variety, including religious books, cookbooks, romance novels, fiction, comics, scrapbooks, and more. Music & Entertainment: Instruments, CDs, vinyl records, movies, and other media are worth bringing in as well. If you're not happy with your trade-in value, politely ask if there's any flexibility. I've always had a positive experience with their customer service. The Trade-In Process: Bring your items to the trade-in counter. They'll take your name and phone number, review your items, and call you when they're finished. You'll receive both a cash offer and a store credit offer. For registered items, you'll need a valid ID, and fingerprinting may be required. Happy spring cleaning!

Bookmans Mesa is the best. At least once a quarter we clean out our bookshelves, board games, and…read morepuzzles, pile everything into the car, and bring it in for trade. I always feel like they give a really fair amount in trade credit, and somehow we always find new treasures to bring home. I especially love the board game section. It's packed with great options, though I do wish it was organized a bit more because there's so much to dig through. The kids area is wonderful too. On our last visit my daughter spent a ton of time browsing the young adult aisles and discovering new books. I only wish there was a location a little closer to us because we'd probably go even more often. Also throwing this out there... if they ever started a kids or teen book club, we would be all over that!

I had to order some books online. I had them delivered here to join up with some other books that I…read morehad shipped to my home. Books arrived on time however, the pick up process wasn't as straightforward as I expected. I ended up going to the center customer service desk & waiting for about 5 to almost 10 minutes. At that point, I gave up and just went straight to the line. Thankfully, when I got in line after about a 5 to 10 minute wait with only one person at the register, I was able to get access. One could argue after reading my review that I need to go to the bookstore more often... and you would lose that argument as I frequent Bookstores and read a lot more than you'd expect!! :-) Customer service was really good when I got a hold of someone however, I just didn't like the process of knowing where to go to pick up the books. It would be good to have some signage when you first walk in, letting you know what to do.

Lots of interesting things here and the workers here are super nice. When I saw temple merchandise, I figured out really quickly that it's a Mormon bookstore. I'm not a Mormon so I felt a bit out of place. I wasn't sure how to rate this place, and would feel wierd leaving a negative review due to the difference in beliefs, so I'll give it 4 stars for the kindness of the workers, and the awesome Nativity display.

Whether…read moreyou're looking for a new book or a bouquet, Wijaya is a great place to buy a gift for someone or to treat yourself. I've visited a couple times now, but on my most recent visit, I attended one of their ticketed flower bouquet making events. You can find a wide range of artsy book-related or flower-related events on their website. For this class, it was learning how to make a spiral bouquet. It was so fun learning this technique and leaving with a a bouquet that I had designed! Also, the owner is super kind and her patience and help with me while I made my bouquet was greatly appreciated. Can't wait to try another class!

Absolutely quaint small business bookshop hidden behind the Mexican restaurant next door. I walked…read morein blind, super excited to visit since it's a woman-owned business in my city. I was immediately greeted by a young friendly woman at the front who left me to peruse the store. There's a selection of books for everyone, with sections for various genres housed on the east wall and within their bookcases and tables. I love the idea of a blind date with a book, and they had no shortage of options! There's a small area containing tees and other merch and, even tho I'm not a big sci-fi fan, I loved the setup they had for the genre! What I hadn't anticipated was the section that had the Sweet Valley Twins books! The nostalgia was HEAVY let me tell you! :) Regardless of how small the store seemed, they do an amazing job of packing in the books and I was impressed that there's literally every type of genre you could want there. Adding to the great vibes are the comfy sitting areas with plush seating, an old typewriter you can crank out 'hellos' to future visitors on, and plants and decor that add charm to some mid century modern furniture. What makes this place so unique though is the assortment of fresh flowers in the back and the flower workshops they hold each week. I haven't gone to one yet, but I plan on it, they look really cool! I highly recommend Wijaya House to any book lover, but especially those that prefer the locally owned to the big box store. I'm planning my next visit soon. :)

This place is a bit of a maze but definitely worth exploring. I happened upon this bookstore after…read morea hearty breakfast over at the Waffle House, which shares in the same general strip mall parking lot. What I liked about this place was the abundance of reference books. I need to bone up on my chemistry skills from way back, so I bought a couple of older texts for just such a purpose. I also wandered into their $1 zone and found a couple of impulse buys. How can you not be impulsive when every book in that section is a buck? I found an old cookbook from "The Froog"... that's The Frugal Gourmet for those who remember back when he had a cooking show on PBS. Those who think Paula Deen was the only famous cooking television personality to be tarnished by scandal would do well to look Jeff Smith up on the Interwebs. I guess I know now why his stuff is in the bargain section... but his disappearance from the culinary scene is my shopportunity! The staff here seemed quite knowledgable. I had an interesting discussion with them about the collectibility of some of the Dungeons & Dragons manuals they displayed. I was not aware that the Deities & Demigods manual (available here for $75) was produced in two different versions, the later one omitting any Cthuhlu mythology due to legal issues). I forgot to check which versions were stocked here, but I am well familiar with this book from my childhood (not because I was a D&D player, but because I was into mythology). I had a fun time exploring this bookstore and chatting with the staff. I will return to navigate Bookmaze again sometime. If you've got some time to kill, this is a fine, quirky little bookstore in which to browse, browse, browse for bargains.

The man working had pajamas and no shoes on-- I'm not one to judge, but it seemed like he wasn't expecting us. Kind of creepy and half done. Not a very good selection and they only took like 1/8th of the books we tried to sell, for $20. It took everything in me not to get annoyed. Yes, I did take the $20, but I'm going to stick to eBay/Mercari for selling my books .
