To me, finding a new bookstore is like greeting an old friend. My heart gets very happy and I could sit there for hours spending time with the books(I’m kind of a bookworm). So when I found out this bookstore was right by where I live and I had never been there before, I drove straight there. It. Was. Wonderful. It has such an adorable set up, and such a wide selection of books for being such a small bookstore! The people who were working were SO nice to me and so welcoming, which I appreciate, since I’m THAT bookstore customer that sits around and reads for long periods of time. It was such a cute local bookstore, it made me happy.

This is your quintessential neighborhood bookstore. You aren’t going to find the variety you find at the big box stores, but they can order just about anything, as long as you are willing to wait. It’s a charming little store with wonderful customer service. They have a wonderful selection of children/youth books.

Joe Hight just bought this bookstore, and I can’t imagine anyone who could do it more justice. He’s one of the most fun and friendly guys I know, a former newspaper editor, and a long-time advocate for the OKC metro area. I stopped by for their 30th anniversary party and it looks like a seamless transition. We had a ton of fun with our boys, ate cookies, drank hot cider, listened to story time and bought some books. A great asset to Edmond.

Well established, long time local bookstore. They have a good selection of books and will order for you anything they don’t have in stock. The staff is more knowledgeable about books than I could ever hope to be. I always feel a twinge of guilt when I order off Amazon or thrift at Half Price when I know I could be buying local, and supporting local business. This is my go to place for buying a gift-especially for children, as they have an excellent book and toy section for children through young adult. My nieces and nephews like coming here. I’ve also enjoyed the local and out of town authors they have come through for book signings, speaking and storytelling!

I wandered in this bookstore a few weeks ago while christmas shopping. If you’ve ever seen You’ve Got Mail, you understand me when I say it reminded me of The Shop Around the Corner. It is small, quaint, and well organized. I spent about an hour wandering around and reading. Best of Books has a great selection of children’s books, toys, and trinkets. But it is not a store for solely for children. Half of their space is dedicated to books for adults, too. I found more than what I was looking for. One complaint: they didn’t have P.G. Wodehouse. But he is not really well known by the majority of readers, so I won’t dock the store’s rating for that. I definitely recommend this bookstore.
