Susan's Books & Gifts

Stopped in and shopped with my mom. It was a “Norman Rockwell” experience visiting the town and the bookstore! The selection of books and how well it was organized was fantastic. The owner was so kind and caring. We will be back!

This is my happy place! A beautiful set up of books (and cozy places to read!), hot drinks, wonderfully educational toys, handmade gifts to buy for others or yourself and consignment items for your little ones. Susan's upbeat and caring personality fills this one-of-a-kind shop. I absolutely love this place and feel that anyone who stops will quickly feel the same!

This is a delightful little store that is filled with all kinds of books very reasonably priced.

Susan is an amazing human with wonderful stories to tell. I highly recommend visiting, it will not disappoint.
Her store is a perfect place to donate the books you no longer need and pick up a few new titles to take home.

Susan’s store is beautiful and she’s so nice. I’ve found lots of amazing books at really generous prices here. Thank you, Susan!

A wonderful bookstore full of used books, fun gifts and friendly people!! Everyone gets their first book FREE and all other books are $2!!

I love the unique toy selection for kids! Friendly staff and can spend a long time looking at all the toys and books.

The staff is beautiful and care about the people that shop there. Would highly recommend this place.

Such a great store filled with so many treasures! I'm from Iowa so each time I'm in town, visiting family, I always stop in and do a little shopping. See you next time!

I Love this store an Susan. She always greets you with a smile and her inventory of books is fabulous 😍. Now she has added these awesome children's toys and games. I could and have spent lots of time just browsing as there is so many things to look at. Susan’s is a must stop and check out business if you are ever in Aurora Nebraska

Me and my family had a wonderful time. A nice layout of books, games and puzzles. Susan is very friendly and welcoming, it felt like home. Thank you for the wonderful talk and showing us around... Till next time

What a lovely book and toy shop in the heart of Aurora, Nebraska ❣
A tire gem! A large selection of all kinds of used books!! Susan is a windfall shop owner. Very accommodating and helpful. She gives awesome discounts to people driving to her shop!
An awesome shopping experience.

My favorite store! You cannot beat $2 books! I search the site for the books we need for school and save so much money! The selection of toys and gifts are great! I love buying things that make the kids think and keep them entertained. My kids love getting to pick out a free book at each visit. Susan is so kind and always ready to help.

I stopped in thinking it was a gift shop, and realized as soon as I went in that it was a book store. So I turned around to leave and Susan stopped me to welcome me to her store and tell me all about it! She was so nice, and so passionate about her book store, I ended up spending quite a long time in there, and left with 2 books. I think we would be great friends 🙂 If you haven't been there, your missing out! Thank you Susan!

Absolutely love this fun and adorable shop in small town Nebraska! Susan is an amazing woman and brings so much joy into her work and town! It’s so nice to have an awesome used bookstore, small gifts, and kids toy store so close in the smaller towns! Definitely one of my happy places and would recommend people to stop by and enjoy the experience!

It was so much fun and so relaxing to go to her book store. I got some unique gifts for my grandkids and of course some books. I found 2 Pearl Bucks books...old books!! Sweet treasure!!! What a great road trip and definitely coming back!!

If you get the chance take a trip to Aurora to Susan's Books and Gifts - Aurora, NE Used Bookstore and Toy Shop, it’s a MUST! My daughter got to pick out 20 free books for meeting her AR reading goal. They are able to do this by donations of books. So, if you’re wanting to clear out your book collection Susan’s is a great place to take them! Worth the trip I promise! To top it off you won’t regret meeting Susan who is such a kind, loving, energetic soul! Thank you for all you do Susan. My family will be returning soon and often!

AWESOME EXPERIENCE! Couldn't ask for better service or a friendlier owner! So many books of all genres in hardback and paperback. There's even a Nebraska Author section!
Incredibly low price on all books plus she takes off 10 cents a mile for your trip from home to her shop! Who does that, Susan's Books!

Aurora is beautiful and Im so glad that we stopped to explore the town and came across this bookstore. Susan has created such a warm and welcoming space. It was so great meeting her and getting to hear her philosophy about spreading knowledge and love through books never knowing who will end up with one at the exact moment they need to hear something.

This store is so much fun - we took a couple of boxes of books in to donate and the owner Susan is so friendly and amazing. My husband and I enjoyed looking at all the fun toys and activity kits for kids that are not electronic. We bought some fun stuff for the grandkids and the pop-it selection is awesome. We dro
ve over to Aurora from Gibbon and it was definitely worth the drive. This is where all of my book donations will go from now on. If you want a happy and cheerful feeling - just walk into this store.
