Solid local independent bookshop. Great selection and pretty decent staff.

I drove by this shop and decided to stop in and check it out. From the moment I walked in the door I felt unwelcome. The staff did not greet me or even acknowledge my presence. There was only one other customer in the bookstore and at least three staff members working. I browsed the shelves and again no one spoke to me or asked if I needed help. I picked out a few things form the children's section, which was pretty decent for a small bookshop (the only reason for two stars) and proceeded to the counter to pay. An older woman was behind the counter, glanced at me and then continued to type something on her computer. She never spoke to me at all. A second cashier rang me up after a few awkward moments. It was a very cold interaction. It's a decently stocked bookstore, but it needs better, more friendly staff. I won't be returning. I'll get better treatment elsewhere.

A local treasure for the superb selection of books, the kind people who work there, and the accessibility.

My personal favorite thing about the store is the amazing selection of author events they hold there. It really is great to have a local place willing to bring so many creators in for special events.

Mostly new/recently published titles. Great current affairs section, and have some harder to find titles/publishers: Europa. Also has a great selection of local history, current affairs and the ilk. Loads of John's Hopkins press books. Frequently has book events and readings. Some staff a bit more forthcoming than others, but all helpful. Staff is certainly better than what it was about 5 years ago.

Great place to shop for a book--friendly and full of good suggestions!
