I visited here for the first time yesterday, and was immediately blown away by this bookstore! I've been to a lot of bookstores, but this one is my new favorite! From the layout to the overall design and the cat (who I got to pet), I will definitely be visiting this bookstore again in the near future. Highly recommend this place to any book lover!

I can't stop singing praise for this location. Both of the lovely ladies on staff were extremely kind and patient with my family. The selection of books, manga, and even Warhammer miniatures surprised me. If you are a book lover, manga enthusiast, or nerd in any way shape or form, you owe it to yourself to check this place out. If nothing else, the seating areas and hidden rare book nook are worth the visit regardless of your tastes. Having a quiet space to read and collect your thoughts is invaluable in today's day and age. This location is perfect for those needs. Another great thing about this store is their online options. From ordering items into the store to delivering them throughout the continental US, they will work on getting you any book you may need.

Literally the most magical book store. Everything is reasonably priced, even the brand new books are less then what you would pay at a “normal” book store (looking at you Barnes and Nobel). Beautiful and interesting interior, fascinating titles to look at, and a cute book store kitty! Highly highly highly recommend.

Sandman's Bookstore is the best local bookstore around. I really like how they organize their selections and they have something like 80,000 to 100,000 books in their inventory. Very old, new and unusual books for sale.

They have absolutely everything. The most extensive book collection I've ever seen On the rare occasion that they don't have something I want, they'll order it and have it in a matter of days for far less than Amazon or Walmart.com etc.

Maybe. They secide what they will accept. Call before you go. Their website said they were open on Wednesday. We drove out 20 miles to find it not open. Very disappointing.

Do they have books by Erin Hunter?

Is there a place to search to see if you have a book in stock? I didn't see a search section on the website.

You can call or email them and have them check the shelves; They are moving at the end of January 2019 to another location off of Duncan Road/ US 17 and I think they took the search offline while they pack up their books.

Do they trade in books?

In store credit, not much. Donate your books to Punta Gorda library. We do, books plus magazines.
