Very little in the world is as good as a small, local book shop which is larger on the inside than you would give it credit for by looking at the outside.

I was disappointed to learn they did not offer cash for used books. They offer credits which can be used to purchase books at 50% off. I think this system is not as good as competitors such as half price books.The store otherwise seemed nice.

They have a great selection of gently used books. I bought one that looked like it had never been opened it was so new. Then I spilled my coffee on it. The staff is friendly and helpful. Some great deals if you want to get away from the electronic books.

Cosy book store that offers both new and used books. They also engage in consignment on books allowing you to trade in your old books for store credit. However, the credit for books you have traded in is only valid towards used books. I really like the personable environment and staff and also the fact that there is a cafe discretely attached that you can access from the book store.

Best used bookstore in the area. They take almost anything in for trades and pay cash for current best-sellers. They will also order new books for you at a big discount and will even call you when they arrive, which in my experience, was just two days after I ordered them. They also offered to order a book that was no long being printed for me, but I decided to wait to see if I really wanted it.I didnt get a chance to try the adjacent coffee shop, but will on my next trip.

This is my favorite used book store. I think my family and I have more than 600 book points here that you can use for coupons. Its comfortable end cozy with seating and a coffee shop inside, this is like a coffee shop from a cute book or movie.

Great book store, they have a decent trade in policy: store credit. Bring the books and theyll give you a certain amount of store credit for them. There is no limit to the credit you get, nor is there an expiration on it. I have been doing this for years.

The bookstores appearance is nice, the coffee shop staff are nice, the bookstore staff is a little rocky but okay none the less. My biggest issue, being a college student, was the fact that I ordered a textbook I needed, and the only reason why I ordered it was because it would ship in 2-4 business days. I paid $70.00 and shipping and my book was never delivered. I ordered it on a Wednesday (09/07/16) and today (09/15/16) my book has not arrived yet. This would not have been an issue had the staff kept me up to date. When I called earlier this morning, I was finally informed that the company the book was ordered from itself was NEVER even shipped. I was Told I would have my book on 09/10/16 and by Tuesday 09/13/16 at the latest. Needless to say I will not be ordering any sort of book from this store again. Very disappointed with the entire situation.

Didnt quite come through... I ordered two of the same book on a Monday and needed them for Saturday. I had to pay in advance and was told they should be in by Thursday. One book came in but wasnt in the condition I thought it would be and the other book didnt come in until after a week later. I told them I was not happy with the transaction and they were very good about giving me a refund.

I agree with some of the other reviews they censor a lot of the books. They also made a comment of burn books which I think is a little ridiculous. Its theie right but they censor a lot.The staff is somewhat friendly but look at you like you have two heads if you ask for books they dont allow in the store.They also have a bunch of loud kids making the coffee.Nevertheless, the books they do allow you can get for a cheap price.

Some of the reviews appear to be created only to improve overall score.Staff is polite but a little condescending if you ask about books or genres that the management has decided to censor. Censorship of the stock they carry is certainly their right but not expected in a used book store.Not sure if they literally *burn the books* they do not approve of or what.A lot of the stock is stale - people who are serious about books are probably going elsewhere - Staff advised that they only have what people bring for trade for used books.

Liked the gimmick- books by weight- but there wasnt much in the way of selection. A miss for me.
