1. I love Skylight Books! The cutest local bookstore! My friend and I decided to get each other mystery books as gifts for the first time, and it was such a great experience. They had everything and Kayla was so helpful! Thank you! (Anonymous)
2. Wonderful little bookstore. Next to skylight theater which has great shows. (Anonymous)

4. Kayla was so helpful was able to find a book I’ve been looking for for years. The best bookstore in LA. (Anonymous)
5. I adore this bookstore. I’ve found some true gems of books here, and for that, I’ll always be loyal. It’s on the smaller side, but it’s well curated. I really enjoy the well lit atmosphere and well-spaced bookshelves. Love how easy it is to find what you’re looking for. 10/10 would recommend! (Anonymous)

9. I bought a book here Sunday, and when checking out, the employee Jack was aloof and dismissive. While I was paying, Jack began a conversation with the customer behind me without saying anything to me except for yawning. I had been excited to purchase this book but left feeling regretful about supporting this store. I even went back to Jack to try to explain how I felt, but I am not sure they can comprehend good customer service. I will be finding other book stores to make purchases and hope Skylight hires better people in the future (Anonymous)
10. The most beautiful book store. The space, the tree, the light, the books. A must. (Anonymous)
11. Beautiful space with so many incredible books. The staff is always helpful and the store is clean. If you call ahead, they will go pull a book for you and hold it for you till you arrive! I really appreciated that. (Anonymous)
12. This store is amazing!!! Employees can be hit or miss. Jay has a bit of an unwelcoming vibe to her but everyone else was nicer. Bookstores really need to tighten up and give customers a reason why they should still buy books, and the finds in skylight do just that! Love this place!! (Anonymous)
13. Great independent bookstore. They don’t always have the books I’m hoping to find, but the selection is decent and the store is a good size. I prefer to support a local bookstore. (Anonymous)
14. They have amazing events here, the staff recommends where great. Love hearing the staff’s honest opinions. They have great little knick-knacks too - perfect gifts!! (Anonymous)
15. Wonderful events, staff, and staff recommends. Friendly reminder to order your books through the store instead of online. Support your local bookstores!
