This is probably one of the best used bookstores in San Diego County, maybe even the best in La Mesa. Iβve bought multiple books here over the years due to the great prices and the cats! Thanks for protecting books and taking a stand against AI.

One of my favorite bookstores in San Diego! Well priced, great selection of books and the owners are always friendly and welcoming to everyone who comes in. I'm pretty surprised they don't have more reviews on here. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a great bookstore.

Astonishingly good and surprisingly large book shop. Everything is categorized so you can browse the sort of books you like, from regular fiction to specialist topics like art history to science to you name it. Even just browsing is a voyage of discovery. As it is used books, the prices are excellent. And picking up a real book is a great way to avoid doomscrolling.

A truly wonderful purchase experience from a very friendly and helpful book dealer. I was interested in a listing they posted on AbeBooks so I called them up to request photos which they sent right away. I placed the order on online and they had it shipped out the same day. My very special and irreplaceable book was expertly and thoughtfully packed and arrived in perfect condition. For whatever reason this store has a 2 star review on Abe, but if you check the Google reviews everyone shares glowing reviews which I can now attest are well deserved. I highly recommend them and would gladly buy from them again. Thank You!!
