Skylight Books is as good for people-watching as it is for discovering new authors. The airy, high-ceilinged loft-like look of the store lends to the comfortable aura and draws an eclectic mix of readers and writers. Skylight is renowned for the attention it pays to literary fiction and alternative literature, as well as local authors. The store often has autographed copies for sale and features an impressive schedule of book readings, panel discussions and festival events.

I recently went to Skylight books for the first time with friends for the Harry Potter Book Release party. I am so glad we went there because it is such a fun and funky bookstore that it made the whole experience ten times better. There is a real sense of community and a love for reading and knowledge. I loved their card/stationary section and their shelf of locally published zines. Plus, it is located in a really interesting area. I will definitely be going back!

A small yet charming independent bookstore on the main drag of Los Feliz, sandwiched between a delicious Greek cafe and the Los Feliz 3 movie theatre. I love their publications section, as Skylight carries a variety of independent arts and literary magazines that are difficult to find elsewhere. The gift section also yields high-quality cards, notebooks, and Japanese stationery. Looking for a new book to read but are unsure of what to choose? Scattered across the store are the "staff's picks," books recommended by those that know the stock best. Be sure to pet Skylight's resident kitty and check out the store's schedule of author readings and book signings.
