I saw the recent advertisement about friends of the Johnson County library bookstore in the Johnson…read moreCounty magazine. This is a hidden gem that is staffed by volunteers only on weekends and I believe Tuesday evenings. They are welcoming and friendly and very helpful. We were greeted at the door and handed a price list and shown to where the various genres or items were located. They have a nice children's book room with a table for children to sit and read at and a wide variety of age levels of books for very reasonable prices. They also have a good selection of all types of books and I even saw the woman in front of us purchasing puzzles. They have media and music as well for sale. The address listed on this post is different than the one in the magazine, so I will post a photo of that. I think the address in the review is right next-door where they might store books. I will definitely be going back and we bought a good size box worth of books!

For decades, I have only bought my books at the Friends Of The Library Bookstore. They are mainly…read moredonated by the public. Most are current, brand new hardbounds. They generally sell for $1.00 soft bound and $2.00 hard bound. I can't imagine finding books at these prices anywhere else. Plus the money earned goes to supporting the library. Win/win for everyone! The Johnson County Kansas Friends just moved into a much larger space. They have puzzles and an extra large sections for children's books. I especially like the antique books. I always leave with a full bag. If you are clearing out your shelves, also consider donating.

Stopped in to this unique book store while in the area and was greeted warmly by the owner. She was…read morevery helpful in looking for requests and was good about letting her customers browse. I liked the cute shop and the various seating to browse through the books. The store has a nice relaxing atmosphere and quiet playlist. There was a variety of categories of books but a smaller selection. The prices were about the norm for private small bookstores. She has some new and mostly used and also sells local author's books and items. There was coffee available also which was a nice touch. The only reason for the 4 star is some prices on certain items were quite high in comparison to being found elsewhere.

Great selection with cheaper prices. Owner is nice and store is clean. Would for sure go back.read more

If you're anything like me you'll purchase a book, read it once, and then it's just collecting dust in your house. A few times a year we tend to go through our books, create a box and take it here to sell back. Usually it only earns us 5-10 dollars but you can put that towards a new book or game, which is often fun. I feel like this location always has a really good assortment of offerings, and the folks working are kind and quick going through what you bring in.
