The epitome of a great indie bookstore, right in the heart of The Mission. Wonderful selection, knowledgeable staff, and they host monthly poetry readings. Truly a cool place worth supporting.

I've only been here once but it immediately jumped onto my Top Ten Indie Bookstore. Great selection of poetry, social justice and everything needed to start and/or fight in the Resistance. There is an art gallery, fun kids section and they host lots of events. Remember to "Ask Raul about Proust". I got one of his book recommendations too.

I was happy to find a book store in the neighborhood. I've been there twice and they could be a little more helpful instead of just staring at me like I'm an alien or something the whole time I look around lol. However they have an okay selection for a little book store. Alot of sketchbooks and notebooks and I think they offer some kindbof art classes as well.

Enjoyable bookstore with a good variety and welcoming air somehow collapses when engaging with the staff one-on-one.
