Beautiful bookstore with a wide variety. You will definitely leave with a book!
Honestly, this is my favorite local bookstore. It strikes the balance between cozy and crowded, and you can spend forever finding little treasures. Definitely worth checking it out!
The old fourth avenue is here. The smell when you walk in is fantastic — that old book smell, a little musty, nostalgic, wonderful. Exclusively used books, usually in decent condition. Fair prices. A lot of out-of-print stuff. And if you poke around you’ll find other treasures too. Topo maps, posters, postcards, otherwise nearly lost media. Enjoy and support this local place before it is another student housing tower with vacant storefronts beneath. Keep Tucson, Tucson
I love going to any bookstore around the country in my many travels - I can be particular. This is a nice one with a GREAT selection of unique categories: their history and native sections are outstanding. The prices verge on too much for for a used bookstore. Harder to find a treasure for cheap. I also found their fiction section a bit old-school. Very nice owners and employees.
Great book store with a lot of categories to look through. Huge art and photography sections that we spent a lot of time looking at, as well as a books on book section. Just Love it when we discover this about a book place.

Tucson's treasure trove of used books, where every page holds a story waiting to be discovered.
