I liked visiting this book store. It is huge and very easy to get lost inside as there are many rooms filled with all kinds of books. The staff is helpful and friendly if you are in search of a particular book.

A fabulous used bookstore (with a small new books selection as well) that's more expansive than it looks upon first entering. The staff were friendly and helpful, and we encountered perhaps too many fun finds. We will be back to check out the updated selection next time we're in the area!

Nice bookstore with new and used books. You can get credit for your used books. The place is jam-packed full of books. It's like a maze with all the shelves.
