Since their move from downtown PH to the mall area. It’s kinda sad. It doesn’t change our thoughts or ratings but it does making getting or going to the store harder. It was better when they were around more shops. Nice to catch lunch an then get a book. There further away. We use to go weekly now we haven’t been in 2 months because there no longer in downtown. Sad they moved. But hope they have the same cool book experience. 2021 review below This is such a cool shop. I wish they opened a little earlier, because every time I was in the area. It was between 8-10am. Once we finally were able to get in and check it out my son loved it. Kid naps at 11 so I always do my errands between 7-10 lol. I think if they had a little more area for kids books an had them displayed more. It would def make finding a book easy. But overall I loved it. My child carried his own books to the counter and paid. Great price for books. Great location. Friendly staff. Can’t wait to go back an get some more books!

I’m really happy to have this store nearby. Good selection of books, of course, but also games and puzzles that can make great gifts or treats for kids. They accept book donations, too, helpful for clearing out some older items. And it all benefits the library! What more could I ask for?

Nice place. Friendly staff. Can't give a positive review. As a Jewish man whose family came to America to escape death, the fact that there is a copy of Mein Kamf prominently displayed, I won't give a good review or recommendation. Too bad, this store has a lot to offer.

I love this bookstore! It's where I get most of my books because they have an excellent and expansive selection. They carry new and old books, DVDs, and CDs. You can shop in the store or online. You can ask them to keep an eye out for a book you want and they call you when it arrives! It is a great set-up!
