There's also a counter where you can sell your used books. There's plenty of seating throughout the entire store and there's also a very big food court/cafe situation with multiple different businesses. Imagine reading with a side of Mediterranean food- such a dream come true! If Third Place Books was any closer to where I live I fear I would spend all my money here.

I had a chance to checkout this indie on a spontaneous sunny St. Patrick's Sunday sojourn (3/17/24). Easy peasy free Sunday parking. Warmly greeted upon entry. Wandered the entire length of the retail shop...well appointed seating, some new but mostly used book titles, counter to order menu items, a pocket bar, nooks for seating, try out a manual typewriter, make buttons, or play the piano. Did not buy anything, but thumbed through a French Canadian dictionary from 1958, and enjoyed the fascinating vibe while onsite.

I would rather pick up my coffee somewhere else and then go to the book store to browse.

Wow. Who would have thought there'd be a decent Boardgame store in a mall? I haven't been in a mall…read morein years. But I wanted a set of Chessex dice. So, I decided to head to the Everett Mall (I was meeting up with some friends in Everett to game that night), because someone told me about Wishes. I was concerned that it would be a toy store with a few games in the back. No way! This place is Boardgame heavy. In fact, I saw titles and expansions I wouldn't expect to see in any Boardgame store. Dice? Not much of a selection. At all. I wanted a block of 36 D6s from Chessex. They might have had a handful of Chessex polyhedral sets. I was disappointed. But I decided to walk through the boardgane section. Again, Wow! Lots of depth of titles. I think I saw Twilight Imperium from a row away, and I thought, 'Would they have any Cthulhu Wars expansions? Nah, not in a mall, right?' OMG. I was so wrong. I found a shelf practically dedicated to Cthulhu Wars and Dark Souls! I highly recommend Wishes in the Everett Mall! The two employees I met (Zack and John?) were both friendly and helpful. I ended up buying a Cthulhu Wars expansion - The Sleeper. I still can't believe they had it in stock.

It's what every neighborhood needs, really. Ridgecrest Books is located in the Ridgecrest neighborhood of Shoreline, which isn't huge, but has just what this cozy area needs. Among other businesses, Ridgecrest Books is one of the few businesses on a central street with plenty of street parking. My friends and I visited during the Seattle Independent Bookstore Day, so it was pretty busy in the small bookstore, but was still a welcoming experience. They even had discounted books on racks outside the store, in addition to the collection inside. They don't have the largest book collection here, but it's curated well. I also love that this bookstore is dog friendly! Anytime I'm in the area, I'll definitely stop by and check out what's new at this wonderful, neighborhood bookstore.

I stopped by for the grand opening (3/9/24), had a chance to congratulate one of the owners and sign their guest book. They've been working hard restoring the site.

There are also store merch like onesies, Tshirts, sweatshirts, tote bags, cards, and stickers. It was nice to stop by and get an overview of their offerings. It will be nice to be able to place bookorders in my actual city, in addition to my faves in Seattle and Lake Forest Park. There's ample street parking, located at 165th & 5th near Crest Theater, Cafe Aroma, and Drumlin. Nice retail area growing in Ridgecrest!
