320 E Katella Ave, Orange“I love Bookman! As a former librarian and avid reader, this place is truly the best! I will reach out on a limb and say that parts if not most of Orange County is lacking quirky and artsy charm but this place is a hidden (strictly by location), gem! I love how the books are curated by placards based on fun categories and the owner became a friend when I lived there and is a lovely, laid-back and passionate human!
Mostly used books with some new ones featured as well and the selection is excellent! Bonus points that they focus local artists and have poetry readings!
I moved to NYC where there as one can imagine a wide plethora of incredible indie bookstores (doesn't feel this way in most of California), but I truly miss Bookman and it will always remain in my heart.
Support them if you know what's best for you (haha), go to their events, look at the wonderful art and sign up for their email newsletters as they often send 20% (I believe) coupons off which is a great help.”
“The technicians who came to repair my garage door were not only skilled but also courteous. They answered all my questions and ensured I understood the repairs they were performing.”
“This is an awesome bookstore that is independent and run by the owner specializing in mysteries and thrillers. I enjoy visiting to hear authors discuss their latest books and sign copies.”
“This book store is top tier in the wide variety of books, the music that was playing was perfect,
I have no idea if they have bathrooms. Overall, 10 out of 10”
“Beautiful minerals! This store is a hidden gem and extremely friendly people and incredibly knowledgeable. Found lots of incredible crystals and minerals for my work and if you are into crystals and monerals, its a place you must visit! ✨”
