Nah, more like a half priced books on steroids
We discovered this gem right when it opened. We love it and go there regularly. Yes, it is similar to Hastings, but more upscale. Although it doesn't have a coffee shop like Hastings did. The staff does a good job keeping it orderly... (I felt like Hastings often seemed like a mess.) Another difference is that Hastings had a lot more electronics. 2nd & Charles does have some, just not as much of a variety as Hastings did. There is a great section that has things like sliced agate keychains and rock scented soaps etc. Also, there are a couple areas to sit. Not a lot, but nice if you need to sit. If you like places like Hastings and Half Price Bookstore (with a B&N feel) you'll probably like 2nd & Charles.
Better place to chill than Hastings
Yes but cleaner and better
I like 2nd and Charles a lot better than Hastings
Classier joint.
Yes. Some more unique things than Hastings.
More stuff that's cool
RIP Hastings
More books, but be careful they over charge you if your not paying attention to your receipt.
Kind of. When i went in there were way more books.
Exactly.
