Very chaotic, no idea where to check out, constantly having to move racks to get where you’re looking. It’s for some people but not for me. I’m not picky but this was way overstimulating and too sloppy for my ADHD.

Floor to ceiling books! Probably a fire hazard & not assessible. But a book worm's fantasy. I was so happy when I walked in. Found treasures. Will go back.
