​I recently visited the Walnut Creek library for the first time in awhile (I moved out of CoCo…read moreCounty over a decade ago) and stumbled upon this small bookstore inside. From the parking lot, the bookstore is on the left just inside the door, taking up a small nook. Don't let that fool you; there are plenty of books to be discovered in this treasure trove. Many fiction and non-fiction books are available here, with a smallish selection of children's and young adult books along the back. Most everything is $5 or less. My wife & I purchased 8 books here and paid $32 of everything. There is a parking lot next to the library, with a few spots available for library patrons for 30 minutes. Otherwise, you can pay for longer at the meters.

I simply love this bookstore. I go there often and there are often updated selections of my…read morefavorite genres. I love the children's section for excellent books at a fantastic price - my young granddaughter also loves looking through the selection. Highly recommend going to this bookstore where the books are of high quality and very reasonably priced. I also love that the proceeds of the book sales are routed right back into the library system to help support the library system.

This record store in Walnut Creek has got a lot going for it: they've got a large selection of…read morerecords in the front room and an equally large selection of budget/used records in the side room, to the left, when you walk in (that's where the real treasures are). They have live music upfront, as well as a dedicated performance space in the back of their store. They also had a great selection of free stickers that we saw on our way out. And they sell skateboards and skate paraphernalia. The only downside, which is the case for most modern records stores, is the prices reflect how popular vinyl is these days and most of the records in the front section are selling for at least $30. However... to contrast that, I saw records in their used section for as cheap as $.97, which is really great. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved visiting this place! The atmosphere is perfect, and they have a really wonderful…read moreselection of vinyl records. Would love to come here again, and will definitely recommend anyone else who is visiting Walnut Creek!

The owner is super knowledgeable he answers a lot of hard questions. Some books are a little pricey but others are low so it averages out. We left with 5 books. One was signed by an author. Another was a book that goes for $100 online and we paid $25 so we will be adding to our collection. Definitely worth coming!

We stopped by about 30 minutes before closing in search of a couple books we were unable to find at…read moreanother local bookstore and the staff was wildly unpleasant. The blonde older European woman and another woman talked behind the counter the entire time we were there. When asking a question about a title we were searching for they give you minimal responses and continue the conversation between themselves while searching up the answer. You can't help but feel like you're interrupting them. While being rung up for the books, they continue their conversation and talk about the books you're getting like "I've heard this one is so good" and "I should one of the copies for myself" but it's never directed towards you or with any effort to loop you inter the conversation. She was unpleasant a year ago when we came in and I can't find any desire to come back when they're so many other local bookstores who I'd support first.

I just appreciate that there are still a few Barnes and Nobles around. This isn't your father's…read moreBarnes though. The old Barnes and Nobles you could spend a couple hours walking around looking at books. This is the light version. Unfortunately online stuff has put us in the situation where you can go into this bookstore and cover the whole place in around 15 minutes. I was looking at the "horror" section and it's okay but again, the light version. Also the fact everything is so expensive now also doesn't help. A paperback was 20 bucks. I'm not paying 20 bucks for a book I'll read once that I can get a the library for free. Magazine prices are absurd. I did find a couple that were 8 bucks but most are over ten and usually more. For a magazine. I hope this type of place keeps going but I can see why they don't. Support your local book store.

Wonderland! Lots of space filled with generous genre selections. While there are a lot of the usual…read moremusic, games, and other things, the books are the main focus here. Much appreciated for that very reason. And some of the books these days are upping their game with gorgeous covers and internal pages, well, that makes browsing and buying physical book more compelling than ever. Busy shopping center so while the parking lot is large, getting a spot at peak times may be a short walk to where you are headed. That said, this is a vibrant and living area. The bookstore benefits from that with many fellow book lovers seeking out their next loved story. What goes great with a new book? Coffee or tea! Maybe a treat as well. Enjoy this nice cafe with Starbucks drink offerings. Topping that off, you treat selection is more varied than most places. Quality offerings.
