A good place to chill and study. A wide selection of books with a nice staff to match it. One time though I tried selling like 4 books and they only gave me 7 dollars in return. Still 5 stars though.

very nice atmosphere and the staff are friendly, HOWEVER the prices are extremely high. Like used books around $15-20 and new books around $30. If price doesn't matter to you, it a nice store. But for me, this is a deal breaker. I'm not going to pay $26 for a used book that I could buy for $14 new online. I like those used book stores with $5-10 each books. Too pricy

Third Place Books Ravenna is a classic bookshop. Set in a pleasant Seattle neighborhood, Third Place has an ambiance that exudes both a great emphasis on quality customer service, and a passion for books. The shop is a wonderful setting for browsing titles. Its a great place for children, with a tremendous age-appropriate section guaranteed to delight kids of all ages, and bring smiles to parents' faces. The book keepers do a fantastic job of curating popular new titles, and making certain that there are plenty of all-time favorites to flip through as well. Enjoy your visit and the meal you can get in the adjacent restaurant - Cafe Arta & Pub.

Are they pretty picky with the books they will buy or does it just depend? Also what time is the cut off for getting there with books to sell, a lot of places have restrictions like certain times and days they won't buy books.

They buy books they can sell. They're a business, not a social service. The selection is very good and the staff is helpful and knowledgeable.

Why is it called “Third Place”?

Sociologist Ray Oldenberg suggests that each of us needs three places: first is the home; second is the workplace or school; and beyond lies the place where people from all walks of life interact, experiencing and celebrating their commonality as well as their diversity. It is a third place. In his celebrated book, The Great Good Place, Oldenberg discusses how the cafes, pubs, town squares, and other gathering places make a community stronger and bring people together.
