Not worth it unless you like romance. The place itself is clean with a good vibe but only about a 3rd is organized, accessible and priced and if it isn't priced you get to wait as the store owner scroll though amazon to decide the price, scrolling past cheaper listings at that.
I've spent alot of time in used books stores, I'm used to digging to find the good stuff but part of that is the expectation the either the store is orgaized and curated, with individual books prices according or a essentially rummage sale and you get a better deal.
The whole experience was just incredibly off-putting.
Check out the cute bags in the shop within the shop though, those all looked great l.

This place is a mess. There are books way out of reach and not sure if they’re even for sale. I was browsing the place and made my way through the maze of a place and as I’m looking at the back of the store, some guy tells me “this area is closed” so basically more than half the store is off limits?
I was told they let vendors in so they can sell their merchandise. That’s great and all but I came to try and buy some books, not some Knick knacks or what have you. I got a taste of this store that’s supposed to have a great selection of used books. It seems like it does but more than half are out of reach and blocked off by a bunch of junk and literally up in some shelves on the wall that no one can reach.
Never coming back here again. What a joke of a store.

I live 30 minutes away, and this bookshop was recommended to me. When I arrived, they weren’t open and when I called was told they weren’t sure if they were going to open at all that day. That’s a terrible way to run a business. I’m definitely not making the trip again.

I was just in this bookstore earlier today and it was awesome! I've been in Lancaster from out of town visiting my boyfriend and I heard about this place on Facebook, and I knew I had to go! I know a lot of people complained about the clutter, but I have books stacked in my bedroom at home so it felt really familiar to me! The owner was working there and was SO friendly and chatty with us, and I got a really good vibe in there!

This place is a cluttered nightmare. There are areas where you can't shop, much less get through. How the Fire Marshall allowed this I don't know! The selection in general seems lacking. Unless you're into Romance novels, there really is little else to select from and the remaining selection is rather lackluster at best. Plus the shop seems to have an identity crisis. Is it a bookstore? A plant store? A new age store? A general gift shop? It's ridiculous. Plus, the woman "working" there when we went in was far too busy sitting, ignoring customers, and scrolling on her phone to answer any questions. I'm not sure if it was the owner or an employee but she was rude nevertheless. I left with a bad taste in my mouth. There are other used bookstores a little further away in the Santa Clarita and San Fernando Valleys that I know have a better selection, a friendlier staff, AND better organizational skills. I don't want to have to wade through boxes of DO NOT TOUCH, tables of overpriced rocks, and other such nonsense to try to buy some books.

A very nice shop to find not only books but small treasure like incense, semi precious stones, & local artists items.

This place is a hodgepodge. It consists of a small used bookstore that sells some new books which mainly sells fiction books and has a small selection of non-fiction. It's located within a theater. Within this building there is also a salon and small vendors selling stones and collectibles. Again, a hodgepodge of a place.

First time walking past & the ambiance caught our eye. It was oddly soothing and calming

Employee appeared to have an argument on the phone, limited selection and not wheelchair-friendly. The atmosphere wasn't particularly inviting.

Haven't seen any books worth buying in this place. Trashy romance books dominate the stalls. Saw some Shakespeare, and they are overpriced. Boxes litter the floor and areas cordoned off. Is it a used bookstore or a wanna be boutique shop? Been in this place three times and came out empty handed each time. Not worth checking out unless you like romance books.

If I could give this place zero stars I would. I contacted the bookstore to drop off many of my sellers, anthologies, book series all of in excellent condition. When I showed up, the owner Rochelle came out and instead of helping me unload the books from the trunk of my car, stood there and started judging my books. I helped her carry a few bags in and she told me many of my books weren't good enough. I politely stated that if she didn't want my books I would gladly donate them where they are welcomed. With a passive aggressive tone she told me nobody would want my books. She walked away and took a call totally aloof. I asked for a moment of her time to express express my self. She refused to listen. Instead she interrupted me constantly, and tried to gaslight me. She told me she was fine and I was the one with the problem. I refused to let her unload her negative attitude on me. Since she continued to talk over me, I simply stated the truth, she is a rude and ungrateful person. I contacted the friends of the library. They were grateful for my books, and mentioned that my books were in great condition and worthy of being sold to raise funds for the library. I spoke to them about Rochelle and they disclosed she purchases books from the Lancaster library to sell in her store. This validated that my books were wanted elsewhere, so Rochelle was just being a j**** In a nutshell, Rochelle wouldn't know a good book if it looked her in the face. She comes off as stuck up, like she's the queen of the used bookstore business and it's all an act. She tried to put me down and was totally neurotic and judgmental of my kind act. I think that says a lot about her personality. I would not recommend this bookstore, on top of all this it sells lame romance novels. It doesn't sell classics, must-reads or anything intellectual. It's all a front just like the owner's terrible and ungrateful attitude. Donate your books to the library and save yourself a terrible experience with this ignorant lady.
