had this to say:
Such a delightful bookstore! My sister and I stopped in, had a lovely chat with the store owner about grandmothers’ secret histories, and then struggled to choose between an abundance of great titles at literal dream prices. 10/10 would recommend.

It was great. The first time I went in, I just knew that it was a bookstore, and the people inside were very enthusiastic, and they gave free books to kids on Halloween, so it was a really great choice

Absolutely love it. Owner is very nice and happy to help. VERY wide selection on literally everything(even pasta) Pleasently diverse and inclusive genres. My only critique is that the horror section needs to be a lot bigger.
