Small bookstore that has been around for a while! I liked their local selection and hiking resources were front and center. Lots of kids books as well! Not as many that caught my eye, but came out with some books for me kiddo.

It's *VERY* curated, almost sterilely so. Whenever I walk into a local book store I want to feel like I'm going to discover something awesome, and yes, have an organized system, but also have a certain level of casual ambiance. While I was there I felt like I would get "the look" if I or my child accidentally knocked something over.
If you've been to Poor Richards' downtown COS you'll know what vibe I'm talking about that I wish Covered Treasures had: A good representation of all walks of life and interests, more shelves to get lost in. I felt like I was in someone's personal collection of what the feel is popular and/or relevant. Now, I'm sure since they've been there a while, they know their regulars and what they like, so if it's working for them, kudos! But I'll probably not be back. The place feels like a time-warp back to the 90s. This is someone who has grown up around books and worked in libraries, so if you're a fellow bookish person, I'd say it's worth the one-time visit to decide for yourself.
Wide selection of new and used books. Friendly and helpful staff. Great small town bookstore!
A really nice little bookstore. Always stop by here with my mom to find new adventures to read!.
Lovely little local bookshop with a small but thoughtfully curated collection of new and discounted books. What they don’t have in stock they can order for you. They were very quick to provide some suggestions based on my interests. As an added bonus - they’re in a historical building and walkable from the nearby bars and restaurants! Great place to stop at while you’re in Monument.
This is a great bookstore. Staff are super friendly and helpful. And, they have most everything.
It wasn't crowded and check out was fast.
We parked close by...it was an easy walk to the store.
