    Thanks to Yelp, I found this super cute hole-in-the-wall book store! At first look it doesn't look…read morelike much, but don't let that fool you. This is the perfect spot for any major bookworm like myself to offer up trades and revive a decent store credit. Majority of their books are between $3-$5. They have a decent selection and lots of collections/sets available. The book tender is super helpful and a writer herself, how cool right? One thing I thought was pretty neat is they put out a monthly newsletter, full of the up and coming books, daily sales, prayer chains, local and community news! It reminded me of the College Daily News I used to check for each month, but set for all the book savvy readers. They also have an AMAZING sale on Wednesday's and Sundays, all books $5 and under for $1, score! I personably found three Jodi Picoult hardback books for roughly $9, all in excellent condition. They also have little nick knacks and random items available for sale (jewelry, bookmarks, etc.) My son was with me and of course he found four trucks that he wouldn't put down, but for .50 a truck, I couldn't pass them up! He's been playing with them non-stop for the past few hours, best $2 I spent in a long time, haha! For roughly $11 I have things to occupy myself and my son, win/win in my book!

    Will I ever go E-book? Perhaps, but not for the foreseeable future. My many titles are a big part…read moreof my home, they give more soul than it already has, a source of conversation and comfort. Three hardcovers from the outside Sale Table for a dollar is not to be passed upon. Learning or enjoying from some words, costing just a few cents is music to my ears. Gradually graduating from hinged arm to basket, to box to cart, I had my fill --- for the day. And to think, I was that close to driving by and missing the posted sign reading BOOK SALE, clearly the reading gods were on my side once again. Now at the checkout desk, I spoke with the owner just for a few moments. The woman before me allowed me past, I believe she was asking for credit -- credit for books, immediately making me both happy and sad. I wanted so much to give her money but thought better of it for the possible embarrassment aspect. This store is a special place, a return to the good and simple things in life that I hold dear. Rows of books, writing implements, candles and a peaceful easy feeling you can not get just anywhere.
