Best bookstore around! I stumbled across this shop while walking my dog one day. I stopped to browse the books outside and one of the kind employees opened the door and told me to come in and to bring my dog too. They have a plethora of options, all for a great price. I would definitely recommend checking this bookstore out!

I loved this place. They had a great selection of books in all categories and everything was in great shape. (Even a great selection of comics and graphic novels). The staff was very nice and welcoming as well. I stopped by while in town visiting family and I already plan to stop by again next time I am in town. Highly recommend them!

Great bookstore for used books of all genres; fiction, non-fiction, and anything in between. Great prices too! They have 10 and 25 cents book outside, but there are also great quality books at great prices inside as well. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. Parking available. This was my first time visit here and will definitely be coming back.

Do you recommend that people need to make an appointment to bring in 1-2 boxes of books for potential resale, or do we just show up?

Looking for book on loom weaving for beginner (12 year old). One that was recommended was Weaving On A Little Loom by Fiona Daily. Do you have copy or something comparable? If not, any suggestions where I can find a book like this?
