I’m completely blown away with the amount and selection of books! I couldn’t take it all in in one trip, I must come back!

I have been to a lot of bookstores but this one could be top 3 - give yourself at least an hour!

I could have spent all day in here but unfortunately my kids were not as impressed as I was. I did end up finding a cool old collection of Percy Shelley works, wish I could have stayed longer because I'm sure there were many other treasures to be found. The gentleman at the counter was very pleasant too. Would definitely go back without the kids next time I'm in the area.

Quaint family run used book store with large selection over wide variety of subjects. Something for everyone with many mainstream titles along with eclectic, hard to find items. After purchasing, review your treasures over ice cream across the street

What are the Covid safety practices like here?

Wear your mask if you feel unsafe and wear gloves if you feel it's needed. Store will be closing in several months. My father has sold the building and will be going online and by appointment only sometime after summer 2021. Big changes are coming. My father has been at Wells location since 1980. Stay tuned, the second generation is coming!

Do they buy or just sell old and rare book?

Call them to check inventory. Not sure if they monitor questions here at Google Maps or not. Just the owner and his daughter running a giant inventory. But you are asking the right people, they might actually have your rare book.
