A fantastic small but surprisingly large selection of every genre of books. Amazing prices. Smells like books inside. Gave me a Nostalgic feeling like how bookstores used to be before they became chanin conglomerates. The book store owner was lovely and we got chatting and I didn't want to leave . Spent a lovely 3 hours just browsing and talking and taking a much needed me day . Plus I got some great books and other items and can't wait to go back.

Lots of little book nooks to find some hidden gems. Well worth the trip for any book lover! Found a few out of print books during my visit and prices were reasonable. Spent the afternoon at the little town green around the corner with my latest pickups. Highly recommended!!

Absolutely lovely book store and lovely people! Excellent SciFi/fantasy section. I was floored when I asked if they had any deLint books and they quickly came out with 3 of his books I haven't read. Loads of little nooks with surprises everywhere. They have some cool dragon pins - and all kinds of little trinkets and tchochkas - very glad I found this place. You can bring in your already read books and will receive a decent store credit towards your purchase. Books aren't hard to find - separated by genre and in alphabetic order (mostly) although I'm sure people browsing disturb the layout at times. What more could you ask for? Highly recommended!

Secondhand Rows is a great place to find so many different books! The owners are very friendly and helpful! They have a huge selection of used books. They also sell new books from local authors as well as fun bookmarks and other bookish gifts! I love that they take some used books for store credit on certain books.
