I love this bookstore! I enjoy the newsletters and the staff reviews to add to my to-be-read pile, and there's a great selection of puzzles and games. Also, whomever curates the science & nature section has gotten me into reading more non-fiction books (which I've struggled to do!), so thank you!

This store was a wonderful find! Great book selection with recommendations from the workers posted in front of the books, yes I bought two! Fun puzzles, fantastic cards, super cute onesies, children and adult shirts with photos of classic books on them. There was even a book club happening in the back.

I love this place. Books and yarn! Yes please. I have gotten more than a few books based on their little staff pick cards and enjoyed them all. I also discovered a few good reads from a little international book display they have from Europa Editions. I have recently taken up crocheting and so browsing their yarn selection is so much fun. If I underestimate my yarn need I have been able to call them up and get a skein or two sent to me. They also have games, puzzles, and so much more. Truly a gem!

Wow this book store is a wonderful place. We went there (the city is under construction right now) I just love it and the two books I bought were very good.

If you need a lift, walking into this store will do it. The owner can make suggestions based on your taste in reading. She has never failed me, and has introduced me to now favorite writers. They also have artistic and literate gifts and cards.

My favorite store! Lots of good books to choose from, books and games for kids AND knitting and crocheting projects and supplies! Not to mention puzzles and art supplies. No one should leave this store with nothing to do!!!

I fell in love with this little book store. New books, some signed by author. I bought two first editions signed! They also have some local made jewelry and handbags. I bought a woven bag to be my new bookbag made out of reuse plastic bags and fibers. It is beautifully made and can challenge any high end woven bags. They also have board, card, puzzles, retro, and unique games. I know it is only August, but I bought Christmas presents for my son. Now I'm not into knitting but, they have lots of yarn and stuff. Like I said not into knitting so I can't give to much info on that.This is a must stop for anyone staying or living in the Spooner area and for those passing through. Spooner have a wonderful collections of down town small businesses.

It's a good store but I'm not a fan of them requiring customers wear masks. Thats their personal preference and that's ok. I just won't go in there because I don't carry a mask around.

I am not interested in covering my children’s airway. We left and won’t be back. It’s discriminatory and rude. Oh, but if your vaccinated you may shop without a mask. In Fauci they trust. Good Luck!

If You are into new books this is the place, but I am more into used books and the prices were factory prices, to high for my pocketbook. Clean store, cashier was nice
