Something horribly wrong with the man behind the counter. I bought eighty dollars worth of things and he was downright furious. He scowled at me and ripped the cash out of my hands. He did not offer a bag. I asked for one and he said, "What?" I said, "Sir, a bag; I can't possibly carry all of this stuff." "Oh my God," he said, and actually got on his phone. he called someone and asked what a bag was in, and if they had one. Meanwhile, he owed me two dollars and fifty cents change. I asked for my change and receipt. He turned away from me and started reading in a corner. I stood there for about fifteen minutes not knowing what to do. Eventually someone came in and gave me a grocery bag they had with them, a spare. The man would not look at me and kept grumbling. He all at once bolted up screaming, and gave me two fifty in quarters. I feel sick now from the whole situation.

This is one of those book stores I hope never closes. These aren’t your run-of-the-mill books but rather a carefully-curated selection with a heavy leaning on poetry, mysticism. You aren’t going to find John Grisham or Nora Roberts or Harry Potter here. It’s meant for people who appreciate more obscure and classical things. They have a nice zine collection, as well. It’s the kind of place where I find myself wanting to buy every single book I pick up. Also, Daniel Higgs played here a few years ago. Automatic A+
