A decent selection of books, mainly secondhand. Prices are good, but not great. The books are mostly of recent vintage, so you wont find much in the way of quirky or under-valued books. But, if youre looking for a recent used Penguin in very condition by some moderately obscure Russian novelist, you might well find it here. The area in which this bookstore really does shine is in its selection of remainders: a great, well tended selection, usually including a variety of books published in Britain.

A smallish independent bookstore with a comprehensive collection of just about all the titles youre looking for. Magazines & greeting cards & calendars. (Dont miss their once a year New Years Day calendar sale, 3 for $12) Located near coffee shops in a neighborhood with a diverse selection of goods & very walkable.

A real neighborhood treasure, the place to find wonderful books old and new, greeting cards, books for kids, specialty maagzines (including foreign publications). Super-helpful staff, and they will order items for you as well.

I just love it here. Great, helpful, passionate staff (and patient with kids to boot), great selection, and a bright and airy atmosphere. What more could you ask for in a local bookstore?

John Heylin

Great local spot for books. Love their calendar sale too. If you need a book, call them up and have them order it if they dont have it, support your local book store!

Lee Rosen

New and used books, friendly staff. Selection somewhat limited by space, since they dont specialize in types/subjects choices are shallow across a broad range.

Kyle Chatman

Good size and selection. I never find everything Im looking for but I always find something Im looking for and something I was not looking for.

Great discounts on interesting books. Great collection of used books. Lots of interesting niche items. Just be careful you dont overload!

Sylvia de Trinidad

Independent bookstore. Many used titles. Excellent choices among remaindered books. New book selection is very good. Childrens books too.

Emmalee Carroll

Cozy, small bookstore with a chill vibe. Calendar sale at the end of the year is a must. They carry local artist zines, too.

Joshua Sleutel
