If you like to read, and especially if you like to browse, this is the place. This Pasadena bookstore is a one of a kind place that has been around for over 100 years. Make sure you have time to look around because there is a lot more to see then just books.
The store is two floors, with a special area for kids and lots of gift ideas. Of course, whenever I go to look for a gift I usually find I can't leave without something for me. It is a bit 'pricey' than Borders or Barnes & Noble, but you can find so much more.
Another plus is the little cafe when you can curl up with a coffee or maybe some lunch and enjoy the books you just purchased.
