    This bookstore is phenominal, absolutely adore the books that they have there... How the sections are organized! The authors they host! The helpful staff! Dog friendly to boot.

    Their horror section is kind of pathetic, but they can order any book you need so it isn't really an issue. Knowledgeable staff and lots of author events so this place is always fun to stop by. Can be pricey, but I don't mind spending a little extra on local business every now and then.
