It’s so neat seeing people’s dreams come true. I recall talking to the shop owner, Mr. O’Neil-Rojas, during a field trip we chaperoned. He shared his wife’s dream to run this book store in Oviedo. I’ve watched it grow in variety since opening.The store is really organized and labeled. I highly recommend it!I brought in our first trades as we are purging our private library. While I was walking around, I overhead during the book inspection there was sand on the books. I cringed as I realized one of the boxes must have had sand in it from my husband lovingly clearing the leaves from the garage with the leaf blower this morning. They graciously wiped down the books that were a good addition to their already amazing collection. Next time, I’ll make sure my books are in a tote with a lid while they stay in the garage so the leaf blower doesn’t get to them :)
So many choices! I emailed ahead because I was looking for something specific they had if. Staff was incredibly helpful &friendly
Friendly, welcoming shop. Will definitely return to explore more.
Didn’t have the books I was looking for however, the staff was incredibly helpful and kind. They had an encouraging scripture outside the front door so that was cool to see!Also, they have a lot of wooden toys for kids. Which is helpful to me as they are sometimes hard to come by now and days.Will be coming back soon!
If you go to HPB (Half-Priced Books) in Ohio, you’ll get where I’m coming from here. When I saw this store from the road, I had oddly gotten HPB vibes and I HAD to go see why.This store is very much like HPB! The only thing keeping me from giving them five stars was the size of their inventory. Don’t get me wrong here, the store is plenty big right now. I just think it’d be awesome if they were able to expand and improve their selection.They have the potential to become the Florida equivalent of Half-Priced Books, and if you read this review I strongly urge you to help them out as much as you can! I know I will.
Cool store very nice customer service found a lot of fun books for my son
Courteous and knowledgeable staff. Well stocked bookstore. Wide variety. And the store is very neat and clean and tidy
Absolutely wonderful place!! Was so happy to find exactly what we were looking for and a great price 😊
This book store is amazing! Extremely clean, organized, and the books are priced! Will be coming back, when Im in Florida again!
Its a nice establishment with a decent array of books. but, just be aware that not all of the employees wear face masks and they dont require/enforce their customers to do so either.
This bookstore is a gem! We love the selection and the prices!
Fantastic selection of used books and very nice staff.I messaged the business on Facebook to ask if they had a specific book. They did and the owner set it aside for me to pickup the next morning. Great customer service! Will definitely be back here again.
A very well curated collection! Great prices and the selling/buying system seems great. I will definitely be returning!
I brought my son here for story time and it was an amazing experience. The staff is very sweet, especially Ms. Alana who read another book just for my little guy because we were a few minutes late. Its got a very cozy mom-and-pop atmosphere, but also a great selection of childrens books, fiction and non-fiction, as well as some toys. Its a great place for kids to come and explore. Well definitely visit again soon!
Great customer service and made good recommendations for my parents based on books I knew they liked.
Im excited to have a new used book store so close. We visited for Story Time on Saturday and the kids had a blast. The employees were kind and helpful, and the store was well organized. The prices were a bit high on older used books, but their trade in program for credit cancels that out and I am excited to visit again to trade in some old books and get some new ones!
I don’t feel they have a wide selection of books and I don’t care for their store credit policy of allowing store credit to only be applied to 50% of the used book purchase.
Great selection of books! Very friendly staff and very helpful with suggesting new reads. Looking forward to exchange some books out.
Large selection of used books. Well categorized, an alphabetiz by author. Book by back available
Well priced, wonderful atmosphere, sweet staff, and great selection! This new/used book store is a fantastic addition to the area, as a book lover I could not be more excited, especially after having visited it.
Reading is FUNdamental
