Bought a book today with 756 pages for just $9.50!!!! I sniffed the pages when I got home and the new book smell is still intact ?

This is my favorite local bookstore. I've gone here to buy books for all kinds of special occasions over the years. I especially like that they have bilingual books for kids. Unfortunately, with them closing at 7:00 p.m. it's been tough for me to get here after work. Today I showed up a couple minutes before closing but they had already locked up. What a bummer. Wish they were open later.

Best bookstore. I love the selection of old and new. It's also fun to go through the super discounted books to see what you'll find.

I like this bookstore located close to our home. It buys back used books and has a great collection of non-fiction subjects and old fashion books for kids.

This place is a gem! Favorite bookstore in the area with a great selection of new and used books. Their staff recommendations are great. They have an excellent fiction section, non fiction, and well stocked cookbook section. The shelves are nice and narrow, the floors a little creaky - it feels like a bookstore should feel. Nice selection of calendars as well. They buy your used books as well for store credit or cash and it's nice to pass books back and get a little discount on your next read in exchange.

This is the best book store in the East Bay! Friendly staff and great selection from fiction, to architecture books, and even dozens of cook books! The place has is great at highlighting BIPOC and LGBTQ+ authors and local books.

I couldn't love this place more! In full transparency I have a good friend that works here, so my review may be biased, but I do collect books and consider myself a expert. The staff are friendly, they are fair priced, and they buy books Thursday thru Sunday. They sell comics, vinyl, and CDs too. Out front they have discount books priced $1 to $5 daily. I would highly recommend this place.

The staff here is amazing and very helpful. They were even able to help me find a used copy of the book I was looking for to help me save money. I highly recommend.

Really bad service. Poor collection and not inclusive business. The location is great but the experience was a disappointment.
