    This store is in our family buying history. There is the wonderful scent of paper dust. It's…read morecurated books broken down by genre. There are art books, foreign language books, references, sci fi, mystery, romance, kids books, and more. It's not necessarily cheap, but the selection is eclectic. Their discount books bring me in, too, but I inevitably leave with a stack. My father did this. I inherited volumes from him, and added to it, refining the collection along the way. It's plainly stunning to see the variety of content available here. This store is a magnet for the mind. As I mentioned in my prior review, it's not as large as Powell's in Portland, or has the karma of City Lights in San Francisco, but in a way, it's close the same magnetism you feel in a really good used bookstore. Plan to spend time, and go oomph when you carry the stack when you leave. It's a dangerous place, with dangerous ideas. Go there.

    The owner is a thief. I took books in to sell; it was well over 150 books. The owner looked at less…read morethan a quarter of them, then offered me a small amount in cash and some in store credit, Then he told me to look around the store. I decided not to take the offer and then when I loaded up the books I noticed that there was a rare valuable book missing. When I confronted the owner about the missing book he played dumb and then when I started looking around behind the counter and stated that I saw him with it and told him the title, he conveniently found the book tucked under his desk right next to his leg. He tried to steal the best book and was going to let me pack up and leave. Luckily I noticed. The owner is a thief.
