Just left this fantastic bookstore. It had a great variety of selections. Prices extremely reasonable with a .50 sale running right now. I will definitely be coming back. Owner was very friendly and accommodating. Met the namesake Bear and just wanted to take the pup home.

Really good selection. There was not a bunch of just filler books even if it's not my particular genre it looks like there would be something for everyone. There were some dollar bins and also an INCREDIBLE sale currently. The owner was really nice and very helpful and she really cares about the store to be of good quality since she got it a few months ago. Highly recommend!

I regret never visiting this shop when the old owners had it, but Bear’s Bookstore has done such a great job advertising on social media that I finally went in. I adore it! Cutest shop. Incredibly well organized for a small space. And the new owner is absolutely wonderful. So helpful, knowledgeable, and kind! Huge selection. All around amazing!

SUCH a cute bookstore! I absolutely love the organized chaos. The worker (who I assume to be the owner) was super sweet and talkative, and super helpful with explaining each of the sections.The prices were really reasonable as well. Absolutely stellar little store, and one of the best parts of visiting a smaller town.

It is extremely easy to miss and cramped inside. The book selection is okay but limited to novels. The owner is nice enough.

A charming bookstore. Lots of books. You could look for days and still not see it all. Amazing selection on baby books and young adult. Amazing prices. Owners husband was there and was friendly and helpful. Saw the blackberry jam while checking out and bought some as a gift. Jam is made by owners. Offered me a helpful tip for jam. Will definitely be back!!!

Wonderful service, and the only downside was my unfortunate lack of an unlimited budget.

The owner was very knowledgeable & an old sol. You must grab a jar of homemade black berry jelly crafted by the proprietor and her husband from berries from their own ranch, oh yeah they have miles of great priced second hand books too.

Great place to buy used books in a notable to excellent condition. Owners manage & are very friendly and helpful. I like this place & frequently check for an edition before ordering/purchasing elsewhere. Mostly paperbacks, but several hardcovers available as well
