A variety of books, keepsakes and handmade gifts. One of the ladies and her son even design some of them. They had a lot of themed gifts for the Harry Potter event today as well. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Check it out.

This bookstore is the embodiment of all the reasons why we still need brick and mortar shops. Its adorable and has a great selection of books and gifts. I couldnt stop finding things I love and things friends and family would love, too.They have an INCREDIBLE Harry Potter section, too!

This place is amazing! Such a cool location and after buying a book you can go to the square and read it. Inside is so tiny and cute. Though once I did have a very rude worker and that’s really did deter me from ever coming back. I would rather go and spend my money somewhere that I enjoy going to than just going in and quickly leaving. I felt like I was being watched the whole time when there were so many other people in the store that she wasn’t even looking at. Other than that one time it’s been okay. If I see that worker I usually just don’t go in or leave right away.

They havent been opened long, but they are already a promising new addition. Ive found author signed books. A great selection of teen books. Yesterday they had 2 authors doing book signings and Mrs Claus in their lovely childrens section. Along with locally artisan created products, it is a great place. Lots of local lore and gifts. I think theyll need to do more advertising of their events, but Im excited to see whats coming..

My daughters and I love The Book Store! They carry all of my elementary aged daughters chapter book series that she loves. I saw the previous post in regards to not having enough books. There are plenty of books! You can spend a few hours going through them all. They definitely have more than three shelves...Also, they have bracelets, jewelry, key chains, etc, that can all be personalized if they dont have what youre looking for. Its a great store for Medinas square!!

If you are a book lover you must stop here. I appreciated the kids area in the back of the store where kids can color and look at their books. I liked the pillows with book quotes on them and other unique merchandise. The shop has great atmosphere on top of a great collection of books.

Really cute bookstore, love the style and layout out the store. Staff is really nice but their books are SO overpriced. I can get most of those books on Amazon or at half priced books in north olmsted for way cheaper and if I didnt have a gift card then I probably wouldnt of bought anything.

Wonderful local independent bookstore and gift store. Great book selection and online ordering too. Right off the historic Medina Square.

This is a very dishonest bookstore owner. She does not pay the authors who stock HER store. She also deletes the comments of hard working honest Americas. Do not trust this owner. She will sell you stolen books. Then play the victim in the situation.

Its a nice place right on the medina square, it fits in really well just because in medina the square is so small and yet it still has a little bit of everything in it, and everything goes together so well, definitely a great addition to the square and I would recommend 10/10

Honestly it pains me to leave a bad review of a bookstore or any store in general really. However after driving a half hour to visit this one i felt compelled to leave my first review. As we entered the store right away we noticed there were very few books and large amount of novelty items. There was a wall of key chains with beer bottle openers, pieces of wood engraved with pictures of Ohio and other souvenirs you might buy on vacation. Calling it a bookstore with only 3 small book cases is very misleading, both my girlfriend and i were extremely disappointed. As we were leaving i only half-jokingly turned to her and said, Wal-Mart has a better book selection.tldr: Very few books here Im talking 3 small bookshelves; Just an over priced souvenir shop.

Apparently the owners word isnt worth anything, stiffed an author for payment...how can you claim to love the written word enough to own a book store and have absolutely no respect for the people who provide that written word. This is an affront to the art of the written word and disgusts me.
