Love this place!!! Decided to meet up with a friend for coffee (well tea for me) and she suggested…read morethis place as 'the perfect spot'. And it was. I read through some of the other reviews and I want to set the record straight. Yes, it's inside a church but there is a separate entrance. Yes, there are Christian books but also other genres. Yes, the coffee is very affordable BECAUSE all the staff are volunteers. No one is getting paid and they LOVE what they do. All smiles and great service. The proceeds go to local and global missions of the church. Win, win all the way around. The place itself is very spacious. Two levels. The seating areas are comfortable and far enough apart you can have some semiprivacy if you need it. My friend who brought me says she comes here all the time to study (she's in college). All of the staff knew her by name. (love places like that) I'm not a coffee drinker so I can't really speak to the coffee (although my friend says it's pretty good). I am a tea drinker though and they have a variety of flavors, some refresher juice drinks, a few pastries. Please support. Every now and again if you're thinking of getting coffee or a pastry, choose them. Why not? Do some good for the community through others who are committed to giving back.

It's a bit in the cut and wish it had more of a prominent location. The books are nicely curated, I wish there was a larger fiction area but it's a great shop.

Next to Popshelf in a small shopping plaza, it's nice not to have to park and go into the mall across the street to get to a bookstore. This one has one floor, a cafe, reading nooks, throughout. Small but somehow we managed to spend four hours there. She already has plans to come back.

This location is in a strip mall and is small, but it's warm and inviting. We walked around and saw some pretty cool things, from books to games to Legos and everything in between! I love how the layout flowed. There were little seating areas that you could patronize and get lost in a book. The store is obviously brand spanking new, so everything was clean, neatly organized, and fully stocked. I love that! There is a cafe in the store with some tables and seats. I saw some people on their laptops, so this would be a great place to work out of, or just to get out of the house to get some creative juices flowing. Bookstores always tend to be a bit on the pricey side, but I love how you can just grab a book and either enjoy it in the store or purchase it right away if you're not willing to wait from ordering online. Such a cute location right up the street from us, I look forward to coming back and getting more books!

A serendipitous find. I wasn't looking for a used bookstore but I was in the Central Avenue area…read more(lots of eclectic restaurants!) and just happened to drive around the strip mall that this used bookstore is in. I thought, well then, I can buy a used book or two to gift as a holiday gift. I always want to support the underdog, especially a used bookstore just before the holidays. Well, I didn't find any book that I wanted to give to anyone as a holiday gift but I found a used CD audiobook (Steve Jobs by Walter Isaacson) for just eight bucks! I have a CD player in my car. So glad that I happened to find this place!

I think it's like 'Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory' for book readers. Just an amazing array of all kinds of books of literally every subject both old and rare to almost brand new. The owner Lee was lovely and introduced herself and we enjoyed a good chat about favorite books. Another thing that makes this space so special is the kitties who run the store... books and cats - I'm in heaven!

Bookstores like That's Novel have my devotion. Just walking in, I felt an intense sense of peace…read moreand contentment. I'm surrounded by books and all is right in the world again. They have more than just new copies of the latest releases! They have used books! They have cute gifts like candles and art and jewelry and more! They have detailed staff picks that are featured! Books are clearly organized in ways to make them easy to find and you'll find every genre here. And there are reading nooks, so you'll never want to leave. I almost feel like a new book is like a pet that you'll take home and cherish forever. I'm so grateful for a woman-owned bookshop like That's Novel.

I ended up getting a chicken salad sandwich and chips which was good, just not what I would have chosen for breakfast lol

There are a ton of other items such as toys, games, mugs, journals, merch, etc. There is limited seating, a couple of benches towards the back.

He loves to read and see all the comics and toys that they have to offer. It isn't cheap here, so keep that in mind, I compared the price of a book that I've been looking to get, it was about 24 dollars here and only 13 dollars on Amazon. But, I suppose if you're not willing to wait for something to be shipped and you rather have it in hand immediately, this is the way to go!
