Solid book store. Interesting books. I got aviation books. Descent selections.

I have driven past this place for years and decided I wanted to find it and go in recently. I had a hard time finding it online, but was able to ask around for the name and street (since I couldn't remember exactly). The books were greatly varying on subject matter, there is a large presence of history and art which was cool. Most of the aisles fit my manual wheelchair, but then I would have to backup to get towards the small center in order to turn since none of the aisles had enough space at their ends. There is also an entire upstairs, but I didn't get to see what it has since there's no elevator. It was cool, very much Inkheart feel, but I probably won't put it on my regular visit rooster since I can't move about easily.

One of the more distinctive, wonderfully labyrinthine bookshops I've been to–and I've been to quite a number of second-hand bookshops by now–where whimsy, rich variety, and organization reign. The proprietor is a colorful, friendly character–a truly charming Texan, with all that the compliment entails. Whenever you find yourself Downtown Fort Worth, do stop by and enjoy this rare gem; you're most likely going to find a book you never knew you needed, which you'll cherish greatly, and all for a GREAT price! Did I mention? The prices are very fair and not inflated, ESPECIALLY in the prime location this shop finds itself (I always assume a storefront in a downtown district will have gratuitously inflated prices; not this shop!)
