    It's a cute little used book store in a small strip mall off Blizzard Dr. There are three rooms to…read morethe store, with genre fiction in the first room, children & YA in the next room, and non-fiction/literature in the last. The general fiction leans heavily towards the Christian fiction and related genres, but there was some contemporary fiction like Saramago and DFW (I almost bought a copy of "Infinite Jest," but really, when am I going to have time to reread that?). Their sci-fi and fantasy collection wasn't too bad either. Prices were pretty good (the aforementioned DFW was listed at $7, and sci-fi paperbacks between $2-4). The proprietor let us know that everything is catalogued, so you could inquire about a particular title if you were looking for something specific. It looks like they also buy used books, which is good to know. They do play religious music in the store, but they also have Bible verses posted in the window, so I suppose that's fair warning.

    They have moved to a new plaza very close to their old location and it was a fantastic move. The…read morestore is: organized, clean, and bright. The customer service is great in that customers are greeted and help is always offered. When they opened the new location they also added board games. Oh did they add board games. It is now *the* place in the area to go for gaming. They have a killer board game library that can be rented to play in story or even rented for overnight. Their selection is bar none and the owner knows his stuff when it comes to gaming. If one is into role playing games they have that covered as well. They have a good selection of role playing game books that are outside of the basic D&D. This business is one of the major go-to places when one visits this area.
