They have cute ketch when you walk in and logo items for sale. I love how they have quick synopsis of some of the books on the outside. The second floor is my fav part. The fairy lights, coloring books, the sci-fi and the metaphysical stuff and round out the genres. Absolutely will be back.

As an English teacher, I spend way more time in bookstores than other stores because the nerd in me…read moreis just enraptured by them. I happened upon Tubby and Coos completely by accident as I had set out to visit one of the neighboring shops and they caught my attention by their PSA sign out front. I walked in the store, and the Sci Fi nerd in me just jumped out as the first thing I saw was Doctor Who. There are a great variety of other books as well, many that appeal to the YA audience as well as the alleged adults of the crowd. I actually ended up picking up a book on the history of the Carnival Krewes of New Orleans, so there really is a bit of something for everyone. The store is small, but there are two stories of goodies contained therein so make sure you take your time to enjoy it all.

Typically I come to browse and grab any good deals I find, but with minimal time, I let her know which authors I was interested in and she ultimately checked her car after scanning the shelves to get me this series that she was planning on reading herself! They retail 10-12$, but I got them for $8.50 each. Not the world's biggest deal, but cheaper than retail nonetheless. I'm grateful for the effort she put in to find me something to leave with especially so close to her closing time.

Once you enter, the nostalgic aroma of aged books greets you, as well as the impressive collection of books. Warning for those that are claustrophobic, it may be a bit overwhelming. I found it to be quaint and also discovered a store cat lounging around! I roamed around for 45 minutes and still wasn't able to get through it all. With that, the selection is limited to dated books so if you're on the hunt for something throwback, this is your place.
