2nd visit: Back again. Can't get enough of this beautiful, awesome bookstore. Something for everyone. Can't wait to come back!

1st visit: Great store! Tons of book! Huge variety. This store doesn’t have an electronic inventory system (which is fine). You just have to search a little more to find the books you are looking for.

Unexpectedly, placed location, but what an incredible find.

With a large selection of a variety of books, within many categories.
Also has many other interesting items, including a nice film collection.

Exceptional size, considering the small entrance way and unlikely great expectations.

However, absolutely, recommended.
Please, do enjoy. The hidden treasures of reading. 😊🤙💜💙💜

A wonderful collection of books graciously donated by the community. Gives a classic used bookstore ambiance without being as intimidating or commercialized as Bookmans. Overall, just a lovely, serene place with fantastic prices on both hardback and paperback books of all generes and styles

THIS is the ONLY store of it's kind, as we in Synnyslope surely appreciate. Information,... alot. All in one place . The Atmosphere is so unique..a great outlet for doing new and different things. Every year represents.,. as far back as the paper can maintain. Outside, are racks loaded with free books they simply no longer have room for. I visit it on my lunch break often and have never been a "reader", believe it. .. its surprisingly opened my eyes to whole other world., THANKS

It looks like a warehouse from the outside (am I in the right place?). Inside, the large space is loaded with books, books, and more books! It's exactly what you remember from a pre-internet local bookstore. Dimly lit, shelves everywhere, that old book smell, and a helpful clerk at the front counter.

We love this place. Tons of books to choose from and I found a adult coloring book I was looking for.

Was really disappointed, I get they have a lot of competition and I'd love to shop local. But I'm a single mom and when books here cost the same as new books online it just isn't worth it.

I have an avid reader at home. If we swapped books with this shop would be more worth it. But we pass ours onto her school to teacher libraries.

Good selection just not for us.

I could spend days in this book shop! A wonderful selection with great prices and the woman at the counter was a delight to talk to! Will be back!
