The store was previously a barber shop but has been transformed into one of the most adorable bookstores I've seen (and I've seen lots!). I was not able to spend lots of time there, but it is a fairly small store so you won't need much time to browse. The store has announced a few literary events and, in addition to a curated collection of new books, they offer a few gently used books. Happy the owners chose Cary!

This is an amazing shop to get unique gifts for the special people in your life. I stumbled upon…read morethis shop looking for my child. I found a few Harry potter inspired pillows and signs that we're a hit. They have room sprays and candles that are soy-based and smell amazing.

They share space with The Lemon Tree in part of the second room to the store. The store is in the Renaissance Plaza Center near the Renaissance Centre and bowling alley. Since there is a sidewalk, you can walk from one place to the other easily. There is generally plenty of free parking in the parking lot unless an event is happening. When you enter, there is a ramp inside the store to take you smoothly down into the main book displays. The children's section is in the front section. Other genres are clearly labeled throughout the store. Don't miss the second half of the store in the other room. The bookstore is locally owned and has a large, knowledgeable staff, so you will always find someone friendly and willing to help you navigate the shelves. Personally, I love that the store features banned books, as I always want to read what they don't want me to read! I like the staff picks too and reading their thoughts on a book. I appreciate that local authors are highlighted here. On my last visit, I was thrilled to score a signed copy of a local author's book that is only sold at Page 158 Books. I also got another book not normally in my genre for a more fun read. Page 158 Books has book clubs, author signings, and other events. Back when they were on White Street, they had coloring nights and brought the community together and introduced me to the store. It is a great local bookstore!

They were great with giving recommendations to two teenagers who were t sure what they're wanted. They didn't rush them and answered all their questions. They were also honest when I asked about a book they didn't have in stock. She said they could order it but she couldn't guarantee that it would be in when I needed it but. I didn't end up ordering the book bc it's being given as a gift. But our group (me, 2 teens and a preteen) left with 5 books, a pin and a patch. I also got a reward off my next purchase! Definitely will be back

Whether you're walking around on Ninth Street of come here because you want something special for your home, definitely stop in!

The atmosphere is SO welcoming! Tom is an unending wealth of knowledge! The first day he did our life path readings and O M G! He could not have been more spot on for my wife and I.
