Leigh's Favorite Books - Sunnyvale, California

Such a BIG little bookstore! I wasn't prepared for how far back the store just keeps going. And the selection is fabulous. Lightly used books mixed with tons of new releases. Love the big readable section signs. The cartoon in the back entrance hallway is hilarious! Really nice e.ployee checked us out. Think I've found two new series to love. And I can sell them back for a 50% store credit. Win win!!

One day, I just wanted to buy some wrapping paper, and while looking up nearby bookstores, I stumbled upon this one: "Leigh’s Favorite Books." It was a beautiful surprise.

As I walked into the store, I was amazed—it felt like stepping into a book lover’s Instagram haven. Every book on the shelves was so beautiful, some adorable, and others had titles that just made you want to pick them up and browse through. The thoughtful arrangement and decor of the store were palpable.

There were also many cleverly designed gifts, stationery items, various cards, pencil cases, and meditation books, all laid out for leisurely browsing. Stepping into this shop seemed to stop time, bringing a sense of peace and calm to my heart.

The shop was small, but I was delighted to have explored every corner, leaving with a sense of spiritual fulfillment. I, who seldom read books in their original language, ended up buying four or five books, including the classic "Pride and Prejudice." The ambiance of the store subtly transformed me...

At the checkout, there was a seemingly earnest young man with a friendly and welcoming demeanor. My initial purpose was to buy wrapping paper, so I asked if they sold any. He mentioned they only provided wrapping services but not the paper for sale. After I told him I wanted to wrap a gift for a friend, he kindly cut a piece of wrapping paper to size for me, so I ended up buying books and also got the wrapping paper I needed.

Oh, and the books purchased in the store can be sold back once you're done with them.

Such a wonderful shop, if you have the chance, don't hesitate to visit!

I love this book store in downtown Sunnyvale. They have an excellent selection, curated picks, and a great buy back program. The staff are always friendly and helpful. We’re lucky to have such a gem in our city.

This is a nice bookstore to go to. They don’t seem to have every book that you need or want, but you can open yourself to going through any books that you see from the shelves. They label different genres in every shelf for us to search for books based on them. The place may not be as neat, but that doesn’t really matter. I’m pretty sure that they will add in more books in the future.

I love this place. They carry a good mix of new releases and older titles. I can spend an hour just browsing the fiction. Very welcoming staff, and they let you bring back some books for credit toward new purchases. This may be my favorite business in the area.
