Get a donut next door and come sit and read at this place. It's lovely.

Whoah, I was shocked by the collection at this little tiny bookstore…read more They sell used/donated books and the proceeds go to the local library. I've been to other bookstores that benefit local libraries, and normally the collection is so sad. I'm an avid fiction reader, and pretty picky, and in their fiction section they had tons of great books published in the last couple years that I have loved (for around $5 for most books) In the travel section I found a fairly recent guidebook for Montreal which will be awesome for our upcoming trip. My husband couldn't stop raving about the 4D? John Wick DVDs he found for cheap that he said would easily go for 10x the price on Amazon. We also found lots of cute books for our toddlers that were 2-3 dollars each. Overall, very small shop but some great finds!!

The kids' section is in front -- bright covers, dragons, detectives. But fiction is the draw. Novels lined like soldiers. Quiet covers that hide big stories. You take one down, read a page, and know you'll need it. The layout is for browsing. The kind of shop where the table displays are edited like good sentences. Bezos would cry here. He'd ask why they don't carry toasters. A bookstore should have a pulse like this one. I might join the book club, if they'll have me.

It's great to have our lovely downtown community, and I love supporting our local businesses.

Recently, I found the whole Dream Harbor series here, that I've been meaning to add to my collection for the holidays. And I also found the Windy City series, in all of it's glory, also in stock here! I was pleasantly surprised to say the least. I always have such good interactions with the booksellers here too. Check out at the register is always pleasant and easy, and I've even had one of the employees reach out to me about joining their monthly book club! They hold a meeting for their romance, fiction, and nonfiction (maybe?) picks of the month. So cool! Will hopefully be joining in on one of the book club meetings soon!

The selection here is really great, and so is the service! We were greeted right when we arrived, and employees checked in with us throughout our visit. It also seemed like they were set up for an event that afternoon, so a portion of the shop was blocked off for it. Nice to know that they host readings, classes, and community programs in-store throughout the year! They have an attached cafe inside, which I have yet to try. But wow, convenience! And they have a second shop toward the back of the strip mall that houses a lot of second hand books at great prices! Definitely worth a look if you're in the area, or wanting a charming bookshop experience that makes you want to stay a little longer.

It is small but packed with a nice mix of used books and the prices are really easy on the wallet. I have found everything from fiction to memoirs and kids' books here. It is always a fun surprise what you will come across. The store is super clean and well organized which makes it easy to find what you want without feeling overwhelmed. I love that the books are sorted by genre because it just makes the whole experience more enjoyable. They have two entrances you can use to get inside. One from Pine Street and another from San Anselmo Avenue. Town Books is located in the Courtyard building at the end of the hall so it is easy to find once you know where to look. The people working there are absolutely lovely. They are so friendly and welcoming that you instantly feel comfortable walking in. They are always happy to chat or help if you are looking for recommendations and you can tell they genuinely enjoy being there. Also they appreciate book donations. They accept gently used books during open hours in limited quantities about three boxes or bags per household. They also accept DVDs and CDs in their original packaging. They do not accept cassette tapes, vinyl records, magazines, games or puzzles. The nice ladies toward me that all profits from the sales go straight to supporting the San Anselmo Library so shopping here feels really good. If you are ever in San Anselmo and want to spend some time with good books and great vibes this is definitely the place to check out.

I took my husband here for his birthday for a book, as we've done since we met. We are bookish, believing in the quiet power of a well turned page, obsessed with learning new things, exploring the lives of others through biographies, reinforcing our compassion and empathy with fiction, staying curious through sci-fi, immersing ourselves in history, and enjoying the beauty of well written words. My husband picked a sci-fi book from a British author we have enjoyed reading in the past. I found nothing. Lots of TikTok girlie/booktube titles. I almost bought a cute birthday card but changed my mind. There are a couple of big chairs to sit in, a modest amount of carefully curated offerings, and friendly service. It was good.
