“I have loved this Bookstore and Marty since I was a student at Bastyr, Marty was the primary factor which made it special. He always remembers alumni and helps students & alumni with their needs. I came in to purchase supplies today (2/2/24) to find the bookstore closed and learned Marty and 20+ others were recently laid off d/t budget cuts apparently. Rhis is a tremendous loss to all who have and will ever need to usethe bookstore services. Extremely sad loss and poor decision by the powers that be. The 4 stars areall representing Marty's past contributions to this community, the missing star is for the horrible decision to let Marty go, I'd be angry if I weren't so shocked.”

“I could have spent more time here, but we were with a group, and I wanted to be cognizant of others. This is just a warm, cozy, environment with a larger collection of books than it seems possible.”

“I could spend all day in this store. It's local, community-centered, and they have everything you're looking for plus many things you didn't know you needed ? You can even take a break in the little food court. My favorite is the Mediterranean place. But back to books. Buy them!”

“I stumbled upon this charming bookstore and instantly fell in love with its cozy atmosphere. The shelves are filled with a diverse selection of books to suit every taste. What sets this bookstore apart is its support for local artisans, offering a range of locally made items that add to the store's unique charm. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable, making the browsing experience even more enjoyable. If you're looking for a welcoming bookstore with a great selection and a commitment to supporting local businesses, look no further. Highly recommended!”

“Overall great store for MTG players, tabletop gamers and comics fans.Exceptionally helpful and knowledgeable staff. Simply put- They just get it, and they just do things right. Every one of the dozens of times I have purchased something, usually singles, it has been a fantastic experience among multiple different staff members. Thanks yall!Wednesday night commander usually fills the place. You can easily go solo and find a game within minutes if you do things appropriately. Just sit and wait or ask around.Ofcorse it's downtown Seattle and prices are a bit higher, but they also have some great deals. If the prices and prize support were a bit better, I would give them 5 stars, even 6 stars if I could. But again I don't fault them for it. Retail rent is expensive in Seattle, and its not the most lucrative type of business. Don't get me wrong the prices are fair, just a lil bit higher than most shops I go to outside of the city.I would love to see the pauper and modern event turn out increase a bit. I wish I could make it more often myself. Players, let's make it happen!”

“Charming small shop with mostly new and some used books sprinkled throughout. Organization is really chaotic with fun categories like “When You’re Feeling Witchy”—maybe not optimal if you’re looking for a specific title but awesome for discovering something unexpected.”

“I LOVE this place. It is a wonderful bookstore with a strong community event focus too. It's reasonably priced, a great place to hang out and peruse the books and engage with others. I've seen high quality musical performances and the monthly events calendar is packed full of great jams, intellectual and cultural events. This is a place well worth supporting and telling your friends about!”

“A wonderful bookstore and one of my favorite bookshops in Seattle. The inside is incredibly beautiful, and you really feel like you have stepped into the quintessential used book store. They have such a wide array of books in the store I am always able to find something be it for myself or for a gift. While the fiction section is the largest, other sections are not left lacking.I have also sold some of my read books here, and I the exchange they offer is quite nice. I usually opt for store credit since I know I will be using it soon anyway (sometimes the same day).”

“Amazing little theater with super friendly staff and comfy seats. Only about 50 seats though, so I’d recommend buying tickets ahead of time. So far I’ve seen two films here, and I plan to keep coming back.”

“Small book store with reasonably priced books. Was glad to see so much was in good condition, too many used bookstores sell poor condition books for too high a price. Also a tiny little collection of used games and electronics in the back, a welcome surprise.”

“I stop by here on occasion to look for their varied selection of incense and oils, and the staff is incredibly kind and friendly every time. There is one man with long gray hair who occasionally works the cashier who's always a joy to talk to whenever I come in. I remember coming in wearing a NiGHTS Into Dreams shirt once and he was fascinated by it and asked who the character on it was. I'm going to miss this place when I leave.”

“I've been going to Secret Garden for years, a much-loved resource. Buy books online, pay at the store when you pick it up. My most recent purchase was a pre-order, which was a good thing, because the book was so popular, that the first print run was sold out, except for the ones who had preordered.”

“Lots of great stuff to buy and super helpful and knowledgeable staff. I needed to buy some binoculars and the staff spent over 15 minutes with me trying out a couple pairs and patiently explaining the differences. Great cause, great shop, great staff!”

“Absolutely LOVE this place!!!! One of the best bookstores ever and the library is even better. The younger guy working the library was such a bright lovely light and made my visit there so amazing. He was friendly and told me all the history of the shop as well gave me a brochure for the classes and workshops there are. Can’t say enough about the experience i had here, highly recommend, love the staff, love the book collections, love the tarot collections. They have it all! 10/10”

“I've tried other Half Price Books but this location has by far the best LGBTQ+ section of fiction books - by authors that I know. It's always hit or miss in this genre but it's nice to find a store that actually carries these on a regular basis. I check them out regularly.”
