Awesome book store. Very nice inside. Great selection- all genres represented, fiction, nonfiction, used, vintage, new sci-fi books, lots of graphic novels too. Most trade paperbacks priced from $5-6. I got a couple of Heavy Metal magazines there, too.

I love the old book smell of an indie book shop. There is a good variety of sections and even a vegan cookbook area. Lots of romance and horror and also vintage pulp. The staff are very helpful too.

This is such a cute little local place. It reminds me a lot of Half Price books. Where you have books, records, cds, and little toys. I enjoyed browsing through here and picking up a few books that they had outside for free. This is definitely a great local place to come visit sometime, there's something for the whole family here. They have very fair prices on everything as well.
