“I loved this quaint and cozy book store - it had so many creative touches that the employees had added. Lovely collection of books, with personal reviews attached to the shelves from the employees. The girl at the register was super nice and helpful. We just happened to stumble across this shop when we lost our way to some place else, and it feels like we were meant to find it. Loved it, would visit again.”

The moment you walk in you have a sense of instant calm and peace.. the inventory of items they carry, from amazing cards to books, wind chimes Etc are all fabulous.

“Some places seem to be running on a skeleton staff nowadays but this store had plenty of people to help find the books I was looking for and also made some good recommendations based on my interests. I normally enjoy my BnN trips but this one ranks in the top tier.”

“One of my favorite bookstores in Richmond, VA. Located in Carytown. This bookstore is two stories. They buy used books and even have a store cat! I Had lunch and drinks here Sunday, then walked over to see what new reads were in stock. I lucked up and found a book on my Amazon wishlist! A Review is coming soon”

“A nice alternative to Barnes and Noble. When I first moved up here (pre covid) they seemed kinda expensive, but for what I buy their prices haven't gone up since, so now compared to the rest of the world they are affordable. Staff have been nice every time I've gone in. Their location changed, which I'm sure is confusing some folks because the old building still has the name up, so I've attached a picture of the front of the new building.”

“J Sargeant Reynolds has gown. Going in to register for one class and the staff goes above and beyond to make sure you have what you need or where to get the answers, without running throughout the building. Security is there to assist with a smile as well. I like the atmosphere.”

“Yesterday, I visited Aquarian, where I received exceptional assistance from Helen. She went out of her way to ensure I secured the best possible price for my item, even taking the extra step of contacting another location to confirm. The whole staff was exceptionally kind! The atmosphere is enchanting, and their inventory encompasses everything essential for practitioners of witchcraft or otherwise. If you’re looking for a metaphysical shop in Richmond, I 100% recommend this one!”

“Pretty good campus bookstore, I like hanging out in their cafe more than the library because it's usually more empty. However I'm usually not there long because of the time it closes. Very good book selection even though it's only about a 3rd of the store or less ? it's mostly clothes”

“It's THE bookstore. Ok, so your super new books "may" not be available right now, but they get shipments weekly AND so many good used books to select from as well! They have a great kids section, guitars and vinyls, board games, and merch! They have tables with genre based selective reads along with the latest 'book-tok' choices! LOVE this store!!”

“Mr. Clark Albright, you made no purchase, harassed staff and customers, and interrupted private business feeling self-entitled. I hope charges are brought against you by BookHolders for your aggressive behavior for trespassing and harassment. Shop online so no one ever has to deal with you personally again.”
