Business Description from the Web

brought to you by

Citysearch

From art and literature to travel, this unpretentious indie store is an inviting spot for the general-interest reader.

Given its Sunset Strip location, it's no surprise that certain subjects, such as entertainment and gay studies,... more

This store is across the street from our office but I know many who travel far to come here and they say its their favorite book store in LA. This is not a barnes and noble or borders.

This place has everything as far as book stores go, and if they don't have they'll get it for you. Without all the mass consumer qualities of a Barnes and Noble. Really cool neighborhood feel, they have books you won't find anywhere else. Including a pretty cool selection of used books. They also have great readings from well-known authors. If you're looking for a cool neighborhood book store,... more
