We have a unique selection of classics and bestsellers in English and Spanish. Our book categories in both languages include art, cooking, fiction, non-fiction, pets, poetry, politics, religion, and self-help. We have children books for all ages including bilingual books. We sell new and used books reasonably priced and we also buy books from the public. If you're having a hard time finding a title, give us a call and we'll special order it for you. Besides books, we also have an ample selection of gifts such as hand-made beaded jewelry, silver & fashion jewelry, stationary, photography, art, & other knick knacks. Our purpose is to be involved in the community, help promote literacy, the arts, and our Latin writers. We will reserve items for serious buyers only and we mail out items if you like.
