The only difference was the expansion of games, toys and other "stuff" non-book related. But instead of diminishing the books it actually complemented them very well. I profoundly hope this model sticks around just a little longer.

Black literature is important and I'm so glad this store is able to showcase just that. The owner is super sweet and very helpful. The prices are reasonable and your purchase comes with a dope bookmark! They have a wide selection of books so there is certainly something for all! Reading more is a personal goal of mine, so I'm going to make it a point to stop in regularly to re-up.

Kinokuniya is a great, authentic spot for those who love all things Japanese. From manga, anime,…read moreanime goodies, anime soundtracks, art books, CDs, novels, gundams, language books, and even cute stationary. If you like to collect manga and want to see a huge variety of selections, this is the place. I really like that they also have a selection of manga in Japanese! The art book aisle is awesome. It's hard to find art books in other bookstores, and even places like Barnes and Noble won't have a selection as varied as Kinokuniya. Despite the endless aisles of manga, I've surprisingly noticed that they're missing a few decently known manga. Unless I keep missing it, I've never seen The Case Study of Vanitas in their aisle, but they have the author's other work, Pandora Hearts, in there, for example. I would also say Kinokuniya is limited with their selection of anime goodies. I like that they're all very much authentic and different from your typical anime store selling pop figures and easy to find Bandai/Banpresto stuff, but their blind box selections are also becoming easy to find in other places because it's all the mainstream shows. Overall, if you're looking to expand your collection, this is the place to go.

I've spent hours in here over the years perusing the isles in amazement. If you're interested in a certain topic,they have a book or two for you.

The vinyl department is nothing to sneeze at so, go get that Englbert Humperdinck Christmas Album for the holidays. Antique or first editions? Got em. 1960s Life magazines? Check.

Who doesn't love a book store at bargain prices! There are many Harold price book stores in Dallas,…read moreand I happened to go to my nearest one to my house. I went for a simple date book, and yes they had them in stock. Lovely ones might I add. But you cannot go into these stores and buy just one thing. I found more than I needed, but when buying books I'm never upset with myself. The young man cashiering was delightful. Great personality and welcoming. Even though there was a line, he didn't rush my purchasing process and made me feel seen in the store. Hats off to this half price book store!

I have also always been impressed with the service in their stores. They hire true book lovers and those people are great stewards of the books they represent.

This particular store is a lot smaller than most of their other stores, but it has all of the quality and charm of all their others.

As a huge book collector, this place felt like a treasure trove. There was truly something for everyone, and the prices were fantastic. One of my favorite finds was a beautiful collection of Mark Twain stories -- such a gem. I also picked up a few books for my daughter, and we had the best time browsing together. The kids section was so sweet and welcoming. She was getting into everything (as toddlers do!), but everyone was so kind and understanding. The rest of the store has a bit more of a library feel -- lots of readers quietly flipping through pages, sitting on benches and tucked-away desks -- which I think is wonderful. I was mindful of the more relaxed, peaceful atmosphere outside the kids area, but it was really heartwarming to be in a space where people clearly love books and value time spent with them. You can tell this place is run by people who genuinely care about reading and community. I just want to see this business thrive. We'll definitely try to stop by again before heading home. I absolutely loved it here.

Fellow K-Pop collectors please read! I brought in the albums…read morepictured - six had everything and the rest had everything except the photocard - and was offered $6. I asked about the albums they sell, which often don't have photocards, and they said those were "mistake offers" or donations. I wasn't going to post a review, but after getting home and opening one of the albums I noticed they damaged the photocard. It was wedged as far into the crease of the page as possible, causing the top left corner to be bent, so I actually lost money since a damaged card lowers the value of it and the album! So, PSA to anyone looking to sell K-Pop albums: they must have photocards or they won't take them! Also, please check how they place photocards and other inclusions in your albums before you leave in case they damage something! Finally, please dm me on Instagram @gp1117.trades if you'd like to buy any albums. Photocards are included in Frequency (damaged), No Labels, Play Hard, Face The Sun (Mingyu and Vernon) and Oddinary. They're around $2-$10 plus shipping, and I also have photocards for sale and trade :)

I visited here with a friend and honestly didn't know what to expect at first. I thought the name…read moremight just be a cute gimmick for a bookstore, but the selection completely surprised me. There was a huge variety of books and an impressive selection of games as well. The overall atmosphere was what really stood out. It wasn't overly "designed" or fancy, but it had such a warm, welcoming vibe. Everyone seemed relaxed and happy--almost like stepping into a little utopian pocket of calm. Even the staff were incredibly friendly. The cashier chatted with us about different sections and recommended a book because we looked like we were enjoying ourselves. It felt playful, social, and genuinely fun. The store was very well organized too. Nothing seemed out of place, which made browsing easy. There were maybe 15-20 customers while we were there, but because the space is large it didn't feel crowded at all. At the same time, it was nice that there were other people around--sometimes being the only customer in a store can feel awkward. The pricing on games was another pleasant surprise. Some were as low as $6-$7, and a few were even sealed, which you almost never see at that price. I'm not sure exactly how their inventory system works, but the deals were great. Location-wise it's super convenient--right off the highway with plenty of parking. Overall, it was a top-tier experience and a genuinely fun outing. If you're visiting Dallas, especially with kids, this would be a great stop. It looks like a chain, so I'm curious if other locations have the same vibe, but based on this visit I would absolutely recommend it and would definitely go back.

I showed up here with a huge duffel back filled with brand new books- I've been cleaning out my closet and decided why not get some money for these anyway-- I read on my iPad now (I know, I'm sorry.) The guy at the desk was super nice and helpful-- explained the process of how it works: -They scan each book in their system and the computer basically tells them how much each book is valued. I didn't wait that long until they called my name and I'm thinking "ok, I'm at least gonna get like 90$ for these..." NOPE! The huge duffel bag filled with books was worth to them... Ready for it? $12.87!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Insane. I'm sorry but that is such a scam. I will always love half price books, I spent a lot of time in the one off Northwest Highway as a kid and got all my books from there. But this was just extremely sad. I know for a fact if I said ok, that's fine, they would turn around and sell EACH BOOK for AT LEAST $9.99. Don't waste your time lugging a heavy bag filled with books. Just keep them or sell online. So sorry.
