Welcome to "The Last Bookstore" in Los Angeles, California!
Ok, so it's not literally, "the last bookstore" in all of LA. Some of us Californians DO still read books! But it's certainly the most visually stunning bookstore I've ever seen.
Fanciful decor, book sculptures, plenty of corners with windows and cozy seats... you really can kill a few hours here and not even realize it.
I was even impressed by the background music playing. An interesting mix of classic Christmas carols, Johnny Cash, Frank Sinatra and Alternative.
Yes, The Last Bookstore has something for everyone. If your visiting group includes someone who is not an avid reader and could really care less for books (as my group did), never fear! The second floor is full of miniature art galleries and little gift shops with all manner of glistening and grungy paraphernalia you never needed, but will enjoy admiring.
Nothing about this place is conventional. The aisles meander in mazes. The bookcases are of various shapes, sizes, colors. There are tunnels sculpted from books. The books are generally organized by topic... but then you come upon a "Red" section, where you guessed it...all the book covers are "RED."
If Alice in Wonderland owned a bookstore, this would be it.
It's such an awesome place that you can even bring your TEENAGERS and they will be happy, entertained, and declare it a "pretty cool place."
