Accidentally found this place close to our hotel. Variety, prices are great. Spent two hours there without even noticing. 30 dollars for 10 great books. I wish we didn’t have a weight limit for our luggage, otherwise I would have bought much more.
I love this place. I could spend hours in here just roaming the aisles. So many different genres and topics and the largest antique book selection I have ever seen. My daughter also loves the children's section. Everyone in there has always been so nice to us, and we love coming here, to browse or to buy. A hidden gem!
They had an insane selection at this store, so, so many books. I was confused though whether all books were 50% off though, only some shelves were marked—this needs to be clarified or I’d prefer if an employee notified me when I walked in. I would’ve purchased much more had I know the marked prices were not true.nnAlso, there were so many signed books or first editions so the price was $20-$30–who cares? I wanted several of those books but there were only the special editions and I didn’t want to be paying such a high price for a used book.
Have been a customer for years and have purchased thousands of dollars worth of books from them. Recently I had to return something I bought from them online and Dylan (sorry if I misspelled your name!) handled it professionally and with ease. Great store and staff. You have a customer for life, here.
This is one of my favorite bookstores ever. I visit bookshops everywhere I go, both nationally and internationally, and I am so thankful that this bookstore not too far from where I live. The selection is huge, although a bit cluttered at times. Sometimes it can be a little difficult to find what you're looking for, depending on exactly what it is that you're looking for, but still, you undoubtedly will find something interesting if you spend a little time looking around. I can easily spend hours here and not realize it. I always leave with at least a few books.
