Small in size as far as the cafe area goes, there's six tables and a few stools at a drink rail... but the bookstore part is much larger. We ordered up two americanos and asked for mugs (coffee just doesn't taste the same out of a paper or plastic cup). They have mugs but you have to ask (we were the only ones with mugs at the tables) and you can't take the mugs into the bookstore. Our coffees came up in a timely manner and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Recently popped in on a weekend when I saw a social media post for a coffee cart - Unity Coffee is here on Sundays, and it was the extra motivation I needed to come in. Apparently the namesake/mascot Buffy is the owner's dog, and she makes an appearance at the store in the form of a mural - supposedly she also occasionally visits in person, too. Such a cute touch. The walls are so nicely decorated for a fun and unique vibe, and the light purple color is calming and homey, like you're at a favorite quirky aunt's house. This book store is nice and spacious with plenty of tables for gathering, reading, and socializing. I found the store well organized, and liked how there were several fun and interactive displays with staff recommendations and clever groupings - like upcoming movies. They sell both new and used books, and take donations for the latter. There's a little kids area, seasonal decor (summerween when I went!) and a bunch of Lego displays too for a personal touch. In addition to books, they pad out their store with gift items, stickers, and games, too. Looking forward to coming back soon. I have been trying to read more physical books (rather than use my kindle app), will have to pop by when we find out our next book club pick!

You'll find them at Durango Plaza behind CJ's Italian Ice Cream. There's good parking. Current hours: Monday to Wednesday, 10am to 7pm Thursday to Saturday, 10am to 8pm Sunday, 11am to 6pm Inside is bright, spacious, and beautifully organized! I love how the entire boutique is wonderfully furnished and cleverly decorated in awesome LEGO themes, it makes the place feel so inviting, happy, and playful! I wanted to see what books are available, and they have an amazing genre selection for sci fi & fantasy, history, magic & mythology, science & tech, self development, social science, reference, suspense & thrillers, crime & mystery, young adult, romance, and classics. They also have cool books for cooking, mixology, brewing, humour, gaming (like Dungeons & Dragons), plus a used books section. In the far back corner is a super cute children's area. I'm impressed! Buffy's Book Boutique is no ordinary bookshop and offers so much more. They sell various cute merchandise like magnetic bookmarks, tote bags, and stickers. There's snack bins for potato chips! There's a Buffy's Book Club too! They meet every month, and you can find the schedule on their website. They even host fun events like a Book Bedazzling class! There's one coming up on September 5, 2026 at 5pm to 8pm. It's $20, and they provide all the supplies. Also, they're the only bookstore that offers Coptic Bookbinding. Pricing is $30. I noticed an upcoming workshop for Saturday, September 12, 2026 at 3pm to 7pm. This is a great class for people who have attended a workshop before or consider themselves crafty. I checked the availability and found out that the class is full, and they fill up fast! They do offer it every weekend, so you definitely want to book ahead. Just a note, they're having a release party for the new Sarah J. Maas book, celebrating A Court of Thorns And Roses Book 6, coming on October 26, 2026 at 8pm to 10pm. Ticket price is $15, or $45 for the book and event entry. Overall, this was an exciting and pleasant visit! The staff here is very kind, welcoming, knowledgeable, courteous, friendly, and helpful!

A local, world-renowned chef in Sin City, Chef Boy Satan, passed away…read more This rare original issue of Propaganda circa 1994 was formerly his, but Shwa Laytart of Avantpop gently passed the torch into my possession. RIP, mate~ // I have always fancied the solitary aspect of immersing in literary works. It is, however, concurrently delightful to strike up a conversation in an independent bookstore with fellow overzealous ''reading freaks,'' as noted in a reflection one is bound to catch in its chambers. 'twas such a pleasure witnessing Laytart being equally as enraptured as me when he spoke about death, oddities, and literature, hah~ x // When geomagnetic storms ignited luminescent polar auroras and when the lines of magnetic force between Earth and the sun intersected with one another, the center of the "X" spot where the lines met was where a magnetic portal formed: Avantpop Bookstore. Anyhow, if you are ever in Sin City, fire up your rocket's spark igniters and make your way to new land. Quoting Aunt Ida from Female Trouble (1974), ''The world of the heterosexual is a sick and boring life.'' Upholstered with revolutionary scholars, the Beat Generation, Gonzo journalism, political defiance, banned classics, local artists and activists, rare gems, individualistic figures of all sorts, and the filth of John Waters, you are, rest assured, in for a ''Divine,'' queer experience. Parallel to that thought, if you ever synthesize a penchant for somber, witty poetry, luxuriate yourself in some of Avantpop co-owner, Laytart's, written works-best served with a joint in hand. In the course of frolicking around the shelves, you may wonder how much your birth mother despises you, but ahhh, you need not fret for you will be reminded Gaia loathes your guts just as much. When asked to solve for x, the Chris Korda piece that lies before you hints the solution: X = Save the planet; kill yourself. *Whistles Dada in the streets of Boston to the tune of The Smiths' ''Panic on the streets of London.''* At some point, I am quite certain you will start to hear Rod Serling narrate your life. Where has this review even gone? Oh, the places you will go~ x Overall, you will be departing from the shop glowing in the dark, developing an itch you cannot scratch, which forms a gaping hole in your torso, and leaving you to wonder if the intestine emerged before the tapeworm~ x
