Whoah, I was shocked by the collection at this little tiny bookstore…read more They sell used/donated books and the proceeds go to the local library. I've been to other bookstores that benefit local libraries, and normally the collection is so sad. I'm an avid fiction reader, and pretty picky, and in their fiction section they had tons of great books published in the last couple years that I have loved (for around $5 for most books) In the travel section I found a fairly recent guidebook for Montreal which will be awesome for our upcoming trip. My husband couldn't stop raving about the 4D? John Wick DVDs he found for cheap that he said would easily go for 10x the price on Amazon. We also found lots of cute books for our toddlers that were 2-3 dollars each. Overall, very small shop but some great finds!!

Such a well appointed book store with lovely finds! The woman who was helping us was so kind.read more

The kids' section is in front -- bright covers, dragons, detectives. But fiction is the draw. Novels lined like soldiers. Quiet covers that hide big stories. You take one down, read a page, and know you'll need it. The layout is for browsing. The kind of shop where the table displays are edited like good sentences. Bezos would cry here. He'd ask why they don't carry toasters. A bookstore should have a pulse like this one. I might join the book club, if they'll have me.

If the book I want is not in stock, they order it and call the moment it arrives. Great place, buy a book and then go to one of SA downtown's wonderful coffee shops or the park and enjoy your read. It's great to have our lovely downtown community, and I love supporting our local businesses.

The Book Place (1608Grant Ave, Novato)--a beloved nonprofit used-bookshop run entirely by…read morevolunteers, with all proceeds supporting the Marin County Free Library. Vast selection at great prices: Over 60 categories of donated books--fiction, nonfiction, cookbooks, children's, history, collectibles--plus CDs, DVDs, sheet music, and puzzles. Hardcover novels run around $3, trade paperbacks $2, mass-market paperbacks about 75¢, and clearance titles as low as 25¢. We were here on July 1st and they had books on American history on sale. The Book Place in Novato offers a treasure trove of affordable used books in a friendly, community-centered environment. Every purchase or donation helps enrich Marin County's library offerings, so it's a great spot for both reading lovers and those wanting to give back.

​This is the best used book store in Marin County! If I'm in the area on the days they are open…read more(closed Sunday and Monday), I'll stop by to see what they have. This is a Friends of the Marin County Library store, which means that volunteers lovingly keep the place clean and organized. All of the shelves are clearly listed, with price lists adorning the walls. Some of the books are even discounted further (individually priced on the cover), with an entire back room marked as Clearance (along with the carts outside the front door). Clearance books are mostly $1.00, and most everything else is under $5.00. Community members frequently donate items so the shelves are refreshed regularly. Each time I come by, I always find at least one or two titles to take home (and usually more than that)! There is free street parking, as well as a parking lot in the back of the building. And they only take cash or checks.

The staff here is extremely knowledgeable and helpful without being overbearing…read more As an immunocompromised individual I'm always looking for businesses which still provide hand sanitizer for customer use and who have employees who are courteous about customers who wear masks. I find this a very professional attitude to show concern for other humans. I've been to this bookstore twice in a month and am happy to say I'll be back soon. There's nothing like the smell and feeling of a fresh, new book in my life. They also have a beautiful selection of Tarot and Oracle decks.

I walked into Copperfields hoping to find a white elephant gift. I spotted a woman standing there…read morewatching me. I said hello and explained that I was looking for help finding a white elephant gift for a coworker. I asked for some suggestions. Her response was, "I don't know your coworker." Seriously? I barely know my coworker either. Needless to say, she was no help at all. I ended up turning around and helping myself since I clearly wasn't going to get any assistance. As I was leaving, she said something like, "I'm sorry if I offended you," without a smile. Great. I went down the street and walked into two other stores, explaining the same white elephant gift dilemma. At both stores, the retail clerk took the time to walk me around their store, offered ideas and suggestions to see what might work. Of course, I ended up buying the gift at one of those stores. Novato Copperfield may want to consider training employees to be more helpful when customers ask unusual questions-but then again are white elephant gift questions in December really so out-of-the-ordinary? Just now I searched for "white elephant Christmas gifts" on Amazon and found a ton of somewhat amusing suggestions. I'm not a Prime member and I tend to avoid all thing Amazon, but at least their algorithm/AI is actually helpful...

Recently, I found the whole Dream Harbor series here, that I've been meaning to add to my collection for the holidays. And I also found the Windy City series, in all of it's glory, also in stock here! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. I always have such good interactions with the booksellers here too. Check out at the register is always pleasant and easy, and I've even had one of the employees reach out to me about joining their monthly book club! They hold a meeting for their romance, fiction, and nonfiction (maybe?) picks of the month. So cool! Will hopefully be joining in on one of the book club meetings soon!
