I've only been to this bookstore once, but I enjoyed my visit. It's a small shop but there's a wide variety of books. I prefer science fiction books and there was a good variety of books for me to pick from. The staff were very friendly too. The bookstore is far from my home, but I do plan to make future trips.

One of my favorite bookshops! The staff are very friendly and helpful. Different genre and topics sections so it’s easy to find the book you’re looking for or in the mood to get. Loads of natural light, a cute bookshop dog, & so many cute little extra things you can get like tote bags, notebooks, cards, stickers... read full comment
