Editorial Review for Transitions Bookplace – by Citysearch Editors
The Scene
This sanctuary in the trendy and traffic-snarled North/Clybourn/Sheffield triangle offers patrons inspiration and healing through an abundance of personal growth and self-help books, calendars, tapes and greeting cards; a peaceful atmosphere is created by New Age music and the calming sounds of an indoor waterfall. Area loft-dwellers, empty-nesters, grown-up hippies, students all coexist happily here.
The Goods
The store has 30,000 titles in categories ranging from Eastern and Western spirituality to alternative healing, psychology to creativity. Display tables featuring works by authors scheduled for readings/signings are placed between short rows of bookshelves, making browsing easy and enjoyable. A good selection of greeting cards, a sizable and comfortable cafe, and a friendly and helpful staff attract customers from neighboring stores, as well as from all over the city, who know this is the grooviest bookstore in town.
Editorial content is independent of paid advertisers. Any expenses are paid for by Citysearch.
