This place is amazing. Great selection, awesome prices. While there, I was getting books and the store rep showed me the complete collect in one book. Saving money and space.

I love the vibe of this place. The employees were having interesting conversations and planning a Rocky Horror production. They have reasonable prices on vinyl and books and a well organized selection. So happy I walked in here.

I felt like I should say something about this store. I went a while back, and I was really pleased with my experience. I didn't have much time, and I have trouble reading really dense and closely spaced books, so I did my best to make the best of my time. I was really happy. Teenage boy with a beard that needed to be trimmed, usually that kind of person is looked down on. Especially when they spend most of the time with the cds and manga. But I had a great time. I got to decompress for a bit (being autistic this is really important to me), and I got to look around without any side eyes, and with talkative, but not too talkative staff. Bought 'Look Back' manga (manga about moving on from a harsh childhood past), and I got the hunger games because it was 10 cents (the 10 cents wall was pretty cool). This is dragging on, so I'll finish it up. I'm a collector, and I really respected how well their second hand material was (aside from the 10 cent wall of course, but that's why they were 10 cents), and how respectful they were to niche material. Really loved it. Thanks guys

The Reader’s Corner is a nice place to hunt for treasure books. They got wide varieties of categorized topics and the books have different prices, from 10 to 25 cents for the books outside, but the books and cds inside ranges from a dollar to more than 20 dollars. Just check out that they charge your credit card for a fee. They also buy used books to sell. 4 star for me.

Great bookstore for used books of all genres; fiction, non-fiction, and anything in between. Great prices too! They have 10 and 25 cents book outside, but there are also great quality books at great prices inside as well. The staff members were very friendly and helpful. Parking available. This was my first time visit here and will definitely be coming back.
