Cute local bookstore with new and used books. Also a great place to look for gifts! They have games, puzzles, journals, stickers and totes. Make sure to visit the room upstairs too!

I had my book launch event at Letters Bookshop with Carter Sickels, and it is one of my favorite bookstores. The booksellers are all so kind and knowledgable, and it's located in a lovely area of downtown Durham. Check them out!

The style of this place was amazing. It was quite frankly one of the prettiest and esthetic bookstores I have been in. They had really cool copies of tons of vintage books that were just gorgeous and only 9$. I did find their fiction section to be a little lacking, but I might have just not looked long enough. The upstairs was really cool and the ceiling and doors up there gave old timey glamour vibes. Overall a cool store.

Neat bookstore in downtown Durham selling both new and used books. Most of the books are in the ground floor, but they do have a second floor for some more books and games. The pricing for the used book is fair, not extremely expensive or cheap, but selections can be limited in several categories. The staff members were friendly and helpful. Definitely recommended!.

Such a great bookstore with a huge selection. I love that they offer new and used books, as well as discounts on new fiction. It was all well organized and labeled with some cool tables with interesting topics as well. Love the upstairs area too. So cool!
