Prospero's Books
What people are saying
This place was so cute! I don’t know if I just couldn’t find the romance book section or if it’s just small but next time I will try again. So much to look at. 3 floors STUFFED with books. If you like book stores THIS is the place to stop!
Such a wonderful bookstore with very friendly service! Classic titles in many different subjects. Neat, relaxing spaces in which to browse and read. Chill vibe from both patrons and the space. Cool t-shirts are available as well. (Posting pics I'm thinking aren't too oft-posted as opposed to the more standard fare.)
Such a VIBE!!! The amount of selections and the 3 stories of books to look through is incredible. This is a must stop if you love a unique used bookstore.
This was a great little bookstore. They have books of all genre's and there's definitely something for everyone. The wood floor, the old building, it was a step back in time for sure. The ladder to climb up to find a book was pretty cool. I didn't know there was a 3rd story or I would have gone up and looked around. This store sits in a busy but quaint shopping area, old historic homes, close to KU Med, and a walk friendly neighborhood. Parking was easy to find right down the street. I managed to find a few books that were reasonably priced and affordable. But most of the genre I was looking at that day were way over priced. I'll be back looking for bargains and affordability. If you're looking for an out of the way bookstore to find something unique I'd definitely recommend them.
What a treat. Real books. Real good books. Real humans with whom to interact about bookish matters. Some day i hope live music of local artists is re introduced. The venue is simply awesome in everyway.
