Quincy Stieber
had this to say:
This is my new favorite store. The first time I went, they didn’t have everything I was looking for but they had things I wasn’t looking for which is even better. I asked the wonderful woman that owns the place for a specific book and she went right over to the shelf and found it. How she knows where a specific book is in all those shelves is beyond me, but that’s part of its allure. Some people have commented on the piles of books or the prices, which isn’t entirely unfair. But I would rather spend my time and money in a place like this than any online or chain store. Stop by and check it out, you will thank me later. 5/5 for being the best bookstore in Joliet/Crest Hill!!

This place feels like a portal to the 90s and I love it...they have a amazing variety of books, the only thing I say to becareful about is the price of the books, they are little pricey. But that may be because I bought ina garten cookbooks so I could be wrong about the pricey part. But all in all it's a great store to pop into and see what you find.

A wonderful gem of a store that I’d highly recommend to any bookworm. Every time I visit, I find a vintage book to add to my library of classical studies. Wonderful place and overall great business. Grateful they’re around.

Lots & lots of books. Bought 3 books after an hour. Could spend hours looking through all the selections. Had a good time browsing with my daughter. I will go back again.
