Very cool book store. It had they small town feel when you see it on the street corner and continues with small town hospitality when you walk in.
I like the selection and the sections are really easy to navigate. Sometimes I feel I can get too lost in the big chain book stores. Great variety from kids books, to all the personal niche genres; even some used movies on DVD.
Staff was super friendly and helpful and didn’t hound you all around the store. Great peaceful book shop.

It’s a beautiful store. They have nice selections and I always find something there.
Their prices are great, too and they will give you store credit for your old books. It seems like they always have some fun events going on, especially for kids. I heard about knitting class (every Wed. pm?) and I’m dying to visit. How cool is that! Oh, one more thing. The parking is super close, just across the street!

Wow! I wished I’d had more time to look around, but I’ll be back! First of all, both staff members were very personable, helpful, and seemed happy to be there/​help… I really value customer service. Second, I found a book I was looking for and it was $ 4! Everything there was SO reasonably priced! Moleskin journals were even insanely inexpensive! I can’t wait to come back to spend much more time browsing this really neat shop!

Have been here a couple times now. It never fails that what was just meant to be a quick pop-​in turns into an hour or so visit! So many cool books. We love art, and the collection and variety of art books at The Open Book is really impressive! Today Erin was working at the store, and she might possibly be the most friendly, helpful person I’ve ever come across. Not only with me, but with everyone I saw her engage with. Please visit the Open Book and prepare to be delighted!

When I moved out to Santa Clarita, the first thing I needed to find was where all the bookstores were. While exploring the outdoor part of the mall, I found The Open Book. I walked in an I was in book heaven. I am a major bookworm and I am always looking for a book to read. The store is clean, the staff is friendly and are always willing to help you find a book, and it is a great and quiet place to hangout. Don’t hesitate to take the time and roam the shelves of the store. You can find so many treasures from rare books to cool journals. They even have author events, kids reading time, and a book club. I will never stop going to The Open Book.

An independent used book store, in Valencia of all places, that has good prices, a surprisingly wide selection, and doesn’t try to force feed best sellers and mystery books down your throat? The only good reason to go to the mall. Well, people watching and Five Guys might be good reasons too.

My family and I have only been going to this store for roughly 6 months. At first I was unsure of what to make of it. Over time though, the uniqueness of this shop has grown on us. It is intimate and eclectic. Though smaller than its competitors you have room to stroll and really enjoy yourself. The staff are very helpful, attentive and courteous. We will continue to come here.

Been a fan of this book shop for years now and so pleased to see they are still in business. The new (well, probably not for residents but I just got back in town) larger location is great although I feel like the old one had a bit more charm.
Book selection is excellent, books in excellent condition and prices are very reasonable. I’m especially partial to their cookery section, I’ve got so many great recipe books from baking to vegetarian to smoothies. I’m excited to start coming back here and enjoying this little book heaven in the heart of SCV!

I absolutely adore this little book store! They have a great selection of books and cds. I don’t know if all of the books are used but most of them look new or gently used. I especially loved this one stand near the vintage books called bind date with a book. The books are wrapped in brown paper so you don’t know the title or author but a two point bullet point list gives a brief vague description of what you will enjoy. How adorable! The prices are excellent here. I am so happy we stopped in to check it out.

This new and used books, CDs and DVDs store has a great selection at very reasonable prices in a spacious setting within a fancy shopping center. The young, hip staff are knowledgeable and very helpful. It has a good selection of graphic novels.

In a desert of corporate book stores shoving preordained «bestsellers» down your throat, the Open Book is an oasis.
Oh, how I wish more stores were like this one. I am SO glad that they’re here, especially in Santa Clarita where everything is so so so corporate. This store has it all: personality, amazing books, great selection, superb staff, wonderful atmosphere, great prices, awesome location, and events that encourage and delight new and older readers alike.
If only every book store were like this one!

Santa Clarita needs a used book store like this!
This place is great! Gently used books, DVDs, and CDs, of every genre line the shelves of this place. And at great prices! Books for $ 5, DVDs for $ 4, CDs for $ 1! I love this place!
There’s even little random knick-​knacks and games and whatnots like other big chain book stores stock too. I found a fun little wine tasting board game, retail $ 35 but sold here for $ 10!
They’ve also started a book exchange program, where you can sell your used books you’ve already read to them and get store credit for new books (new to you at least)!
One final stroke of awesomeness, this place hosts fun book related events like book signings by local authors and princess story time!

Initially, I was surprised to hear that Santa Clarita had an actual used bookstore! I expected it to be overpriced as it is Santa Clarita.
On the day I discovered this gem I ended up buying three great books for less than $ 15. Woooo. It’s my current go-​to to look for the next book to read. They have some popular novels for $ 3 and $ 5, I’ve haven’t seen any paperbacks yet labeled over $ 5, except for really thick or new ones. They also have a better variety of novels than the used bookstores in the city, in my opinion, and they also have Barnes-​And-​Noble-​esque kits and sets like origami, sewing, scrapbooking, etc. These are labeled ‘used’ but the ones I’ve bought so far were complete.
I’m rooting for this place! Please stay!
