    Cross Street Book Shop - Dropped in the other day because this place sounded like exactly the kind of cute, hole in the wall shop I was looking for. I'll be back!

    The store has flaky hours, rampant clutter and mediocre prices but an eclectic offering of used…read morebooks in a unique space. Overall, Cross Street Book Shop is worth a visit, but be prepared for it not to be open when you think it should be. It wasn't until my third visit that I found it open, and even then, the owner said he'd been about to shut the shop up for a few minutes while he ran errands until he saw he had potential customers coming in. I could barely get in the door because books were piled everywhere. There are uncategorized books in the aisles as well, though the books on the shelf are in some semblance of order. Literature is grouped together, and non-fiction books are grouped by subject, though they aren't rigorously alphabetized. I have shopped at Friends of the Library shops where paperbacks in really good condition are 50 cents and hardcover books are $2 or $3, so I find the prices at Cross Street Books to be a little on the high side for used books which aren't even all in great condition. Some books are indeed in great condition, but in other cases, paperbacks are yellowing and curling around the edges and are still marked for $2-3. On the other hand, there was an outdoor bargain table the day I visited, and the owner said he often will haggle if you buy a large batch of books at one time. There are some pretty obscure out of print books here, so it's worth a look if you can't find the book you want elsewhere.

    I have no idea how this place is still in business. No one is ever in the store because it's almost…read morenever open. For a while back in the day the building was condemned as a fire hazard because it's literally packed to the rafters with books, and the aisles are packed with books. 17 years ago I gave him my number and asked him to keep an eye out for Tolkein's Histories of Middle Earth. I saw him write it down on a sheet of paper. Still haven't heard back.

The shop is small but stocked with a nice variety of books for the casual readers and those readers who want to dig into some deeper, intellectual, or political material. They also have art, apparel, jewelry, music, incense, and body care products for sell.

For Charmaine to give a three star review based on the fact the book store is purposefully not catering to those outside of this is an issue to me. More than not things are catered to everyone BUT us. We have someone who opened a store to do this and you get someone non melanated who wants to criticize. Do like we do and MOVE ON, it's not catered for you, accept that and keep it moving. I LOVE this bookstore and the owner, Carlos as well. I find what I need/want, and also can grab body oils that smell so nice. In fact seeing Charmaine's review makes me know I need to get my but in there this week and make a visit. This store prospers just fine without you Charmaine. It has been around for years. We know where to go. KRS-One and J Prince found it great enough to come visit, and drop some knowledge. Had you bothered to ASK you would have seen, what you were looking for wasn't there he can order and get. Instead you leave a mediocre review.......darn shame. I guess the name of the book store did not give a clue...BLACKstone Bookstore and CULTURAL Center. Did you really think it was your culture that he was speaking of with this name?

    Best. Esoteric. Bookstore. Ever! I vow to never visit Ann Arbor without coming to this bookstore…read more It's not huge, but it has awesome sections like psychology, religion, spirituality, magic, healing, even nutrition. It approaches life from a holistic, metaphysical but still grounded approach. It also has some oils, candles, and cool decorations like ankhs and things you can hang in your home for protection, like the evil eye, and what not. Upstairs I think they have tarot readings or something along those lines, I've only been up there to use the restroom. They also have a small discount section, oh and a little bit of jewelry! At least some of it is handmade locally. I find the staff to be very kind too. Give it a try!

I was able to purchase some stones for my collection. Some really beautiful items as well as some fun stickers and much much more. There is something for everyone in here The woman working the counter was so friendly and engaging. When I told her that we were just visiting she gave me some wonderful information about the store. She seemed to have a bit of positive pride and enthusiasm for the store that I real appreciate. Upstairs they have created a space for artists to showcase their work. Highly recommended.
