This place is amazing!! I could’ve spent all day in here and more. It’s a book lover’s haven. As I was browsing I noticed that they had used books mixed in and I was able to get two hard cover books for under $10 each. My biggest win of the trip! Not only do they have books but they have cards, stickers, magnets, art work, and so much more. There’s also a bar and trivia too! Such a fun place to be I would definitely be a regular if I lived here!

After years of hearing about this place I finally made it. Amazing! You would think all book stores are similar but I loved the way things were organized. I loved the "remarkable reads" and "employee picks" signs. So many trinkets and gifts that I'll definitely return when needing a fun gift for someone. The coffee shop/ bar is large and spacious. These two places together mean I could spend all day here!

There's so much cool stuff here! There's a bar. in. a. Bookstore. The first time I went was for a book signing with Ashley Flowers and her book All Good People Here-amazing book, by the way. If you do not listen to her crime junkie podcast, you need to get on it! There's a restaurant in the same building but it's separate. They have books signed by authors, too, which is cool. There's also a ton of cool knickknacks and snacks. I can get a glass of wine, smudge stick, and incense and a cute mug with my new book in one place, lol.

We have this scratch off game for couples that gives fun date ideas. We scratched off one this morning that said we had to go to a bookstore and find a childhood book we liked, read them to each other, then buy the books and give them as gifts. We found Changing Hands Bookstore near the restaurant we were going to for lunch. I'm so happy we found this store!! They have so much stuff. We found our books and did our challenge. We're going to donate the books during the holidays. We also found some gifts for our family. I feel like we spent a lot of time in this store. There's so much to look at. There's definitely something for everyone.
There's a coffee shop inside and dining area where you can read the books you just bought. Bathrooms are very clean.
Parking was a little busy. Also, as a side note, they have the Toasted Owl Cafe next door. I love the Toasted Owl's Flagstaff location. I haven't been to their Phoenix location yet because it's fairly new. They have a lot of vegetarian options.

Very quaint book store, with a dedicated space and seating to accommodate book signings. I attended a book signing by Alex Aster, with her new release, Nightbane.
The book was readily available, in hard cover, at a good price. The signing was wonderful, she spoke about her writing, about her journey to getting published, and her continued success at such a young age. Her social media presence played a huge role in her acceptance among the publishing world.
The store did a great job of hosting this event, it was a welcoming atmosphere. I'm looking forward to reading more of Alex's stories.

Love this bookstore! So many unique books, gifts, and other trinkets that you’re not going to find at barns and noble. Very cozy feel that also had a bar inside! If you’re looking for your next book to cozy up to snd read, looking for some informational books or looking for books on Arizona, this is definitely the place to go! 🫶🏼

The name is a little misleading, I was expecting more used books. While they do have an exchange counter they primarily stock new books. They have a fantastic selection for the size of the store, though it can be a little tricky to navigate when it’s really crowded. In addition to books they stock lots of fun little gift items. I have placed several custom orders and pre-orders and they have always been great on notifying me that my stuff is available for pick up. I’ve never had time to stop by the attached bar, but I’m always sad that I live so far away because it seems like it would be a great local hang out! The staff is friendly and overall shopping here is always a great experience. One of my favorite indie bookstores of all time and a must stop if you are in the area!

Love this bookstore! The employees were friendly and incredibly kind. Great selections of used and new books of all genres that are also well organized. They also have other goods perfect for gifts. If you are a book nerd or know one, I highly recommend checking this spot out!

New favorite spot. It’s a wonderful place to purchase books, other fun goods, and even just window shop. People who work there are incredibly friendly as well!

One of the coolest stores in town. If having a drink, reading or getting work done and going to poetry nights or meeting authors are your jam then this is your place. Tone of books, peaceful vibes and lots of room for creativity and connection.

I did some Christmas shopping at Changing Hands and had a fun time. Found some unique items by local artists that I will enjoy giving. I like supporting this independent bookseller... they are more than just books! Shop there as often as you can!

One of my absolute favorite places to go. They have a variety of different books you can find at your typical bookstore; there are a few that are marked down too. As an educator, one of my favorite spots to explore is the children’s book section- they have a selection that I don’t typically see in the regular book store. The staff is personable and knowledgeable, If you are unable to find what you are looking for they can either direct you to the right spot or offer alternatives. Love the vibe, the atmosphere, and it’s really just a chill place to spend the afternoon if you’re looking to just explore a place. It can get a little crowded but never to the point where I feel it’s packed.

We love going to this bookstore. In addition to it just being a bookstore and you getting some pretty good deals on second hand items and also a good selection of new things, there's a fun little things you can get too. Little pins and clothing and kitchen items and bags and socks and different things. Plus there's a bar there... All over a great experience. And we've never had an unhappy employee experience, everyone's always so nice and helpful and just down to earth!

Beautiful store and great selection. I love the smell of the flowers. I still prefer the one in Chandler because it's got easier parking and takes 40 books at a time. This place only takes 15 at a time for trade in. Still nice people can't speak for the bar though.

A neighbor friend of ours retired and we were invited to the party. Changing Hands Bookstore is a great place to do gift shopping for a thoughtful and inspired gifts including great cards and gift wrapping for most occasions. They not only have books but they also have lots of special gift items to choose from. Highly recommend!!

So I've been on the hunt for the perfect weekend spot to chill, relax, study & read for months now.
I've tried many coffee shops, Barnes & Nobles, and libraries, but I was never 100% comfortable. Most of those places that I tried were either too loud, too crowded or just didn't have that chill vibe. Ya know?
Luckily I finally walked into this place today and I felt at ease almost immediately. They have super cute & funny socks, coasters, bags, and other little gifts right as you walk in.
Plus, It's not too crowded at all, they have a BOOKSTORE, a BAR, nice comfy chairs & tables where you can READ, study, or do some laptop workin'. 😀
The people seem really cool! (One lady in the back by the books seemed a bit annoyed after I asked her a question...but other than that this place is so cozy) And I love the indie vibe.
This may be my new favorite place to come on the weekends :)

One of the coolest bookshops I’ve been to in a little while. If you’re in the Phoenix / Scottsdale area you have to check this place out. And author sighting - KC Ritter was there signing her books

Seriously the best book store. I walked in and was home! I spent so much money because I found so many books to add to my TBR. I cannot wait to go again! I wish they had one in the West valley!!! Please come to Surprise!!! I will work every weekend if you do!!!! Everyone was friendly, the vibe was awesome, and SO MANY BOOKS! They have new and used! Cute gifts, even a punch card so when you spend money, you'll save money on future purchases. Honestly, just go. You won't regret it.

Wonderful selection of books for adults and children plus helpful staff. Plus food and drink before or after browsing and buying! Not to mention a fun selection of gifts, regular and quirky. Love the place!

This was our first time out to this location. We usually go to the Tempe store. The employees here were friendly and helpful. The shelves are clearly marked to help you locate items. You can also put a book title in the search on their website to check availability or you can walk to the back of the store and ask an employee to check to see if they have a particular book in stock. They have a children's section, a small coffee shop, and many unique gifts.
