One of the coolest little book shops I've ever been in. I was on my way to Barnes&Noble when I saw…read morecardboard signs on Hackberry heralding a sale at 'The Book Rack'. I swerved in, intrigued. Inside were quirky people, talking about all kids of books and their favorite authors, who you could tell spent more time reading than interacting. Then I remember that was me... The have three separate chambers walled floor to ceiling with books of every genre. All the books are used paperback, which is more than awesome--they're creased and vintage, perfect for the bookshelf. They have an entire wall of Star Trek and Star Wars books; they have all of Tolkien's books (a major plus); and thousands of other. The place isn't big, but they pack in the books. And the prices are reduculously cheap: $3.00 for Lord of the Rings! Easy five stars here. Although on most occasions they have two to three books in a series and not all of them, and sometimes only carry one of an author. Otherwise, this is the coolest book shop in town. P.S. they don't take credit/debit cards so bring cash.

This quiet and claustrophobic little bookstore is located adjacent to a brewery in a strip mall…read moreparking lot. The books are mostly mass market paperbacks, but dig around for a few minutes and you can find a few decent ones hidden under the harlequins and westerns. The prices seemed to range between $3-$8. We were the only people in here on a Saturday afternoon. The owner was intently studying a real estate brochure at the front counter and actually squealed in surprise when we approached her with a book to buy. You get the impression from her reaction and from the boxes and piles of books everywhere that most people come here strictly to trade, sending the owner into an oppressive cycle of never turning a profit or making any space. It might explain the amusing notes scattered throughout the store: "Classics exchanged for classics only!" "No restroom - don't ask!", and my favorite, "Don't touch the light switch!" She seemed positively thrilled with our $3.50 purchase (maybe to run along to the brewery as soon as we left?).

I picked a sweatshirt out of the back corner where the sale racks were because I didn't need to spend that much money. When I picked the one I liked, it didn't have a price tag on it but I figured it'd be an easy fix. Once I got to the front, I guess, the ladies at the front just assumed I was trying to jip them I guess because she made sure to correct me by telling me that I probably found it on the last chance rack and not the clearance rack. She went to find the price for it and came back telling me it was $75. I wasn't expecting it to be cheap but I felt like I had to go ahead and get it since it was such a hassle for them to beginning with. The sweatshirt even has a snag on it. The interaction wouldn't have been that big of a deal if they would've tried to find the price and then told me what they found. Just frustrated.
