Los Angeles, California
WeHo gay adult shop with toys, books, jocks, and an art gallery.
Circus of Books West sits at 8861 Santa Monica Blvd in WeHo's Rainbow District — a recent second store carrying the Circus of Books name, the brand made famous by the original shop a few miles east at 8230 Santa Monica. That original, run for decades by Karen and Barry Mason, was the subject of the 2020 Netflix documentary made by their daughter Rachel; the brand later passed to new ownership under Channel 1 Releasing. This West location opened in the early 2020s in the space that previously held a ChiChi LaRue's adult store. Inside it's a full adult shop: toys, lubricants, magazines, DVDs, plus cards, coffee-table books, and tees. The Gallery @ Circus rotates work by local LGBTQ+ artists, giving it a foot in the neighborhood's creative life as much as its adult trade. It keeps notably late hours for a shop, latest on weekends — useful to know if you're browsing after the bars let out.
