Vroman's is not only a great bookstore, but also a Pasadena landmark in its own way. The selection of books is also expansive, and the staff is always very friendly and knowledgable. I love browsing books at Vroman's. It is the sort of bookstore you want to get lost in. The wide variety and high quality of knick knacks and books gives Vroman's that comfortable cozy feeling of a small bookstore that beats out Borders and Barnes and Nobles hands down.
Pros: cozy atmosphere, variety of selection, classy and classic
