My boyfriend and I are obsessed with bookstores. We can't go anywhere without finding a local…read morebookstore to poke around in for a few hours. I knew about this place since I grew up in the area, so on one of our trips "back home" to the area I brought my boyfriend here. Now every time we visit, we grab a coffee from next door (Templeton's) and pop into Books in Stock to peruse the many, many, MANY shelves of books for at least a couple of hours, and always leave with a stack or two of wonderful finds. Apart from the vast selection that spans every genre you could possibly think of, the atmosphere in this shop is the true soul of this place. Two floors packed full of books (and that comforting old-book-smell) with chairs here and there should you care to plop down for a literary adventure. We've frequented many bookstores in many states, and this is still our favorite one. You'll almost always find what you're looking for - and probably leave with several books you didn't know you needed when you walked in.

I found an absolutely gorgeous set of His Dark Materials from 2008. Just stunning books. Great…read moreprice on them too. This place is really great if you're looking for "their type"...which seemed to be Christian definitely, nationalist maybe...so if you're into that you'll love it. There WERE sections for diverse topics-they were just either empty or nearly so. Maybe a bunch of witchy liberal first peoples recently came through and they haven't recovered? There were whole aisles devoted to Christian books. All in all, not diverse but they do have nice books if you are looking for what they carry.

I don't think you understand how much I LOVE finding new-to-me bookstores…read more I was in the area for a market and I wondered around the area. My subconscious knew and it led me to this place. It's not a terribly large bookstore but it has all of the basic categories you'd expect and I'd say they're pretty well-stocked in those categories. From what I saw there weren't really secondhand books but so it goes. Did I come out with books? Of course I did.

Very cute and quaint bookshop in the middle of Hudson's shopping district. We love stopping by…read moreevery time we are in the area, it's located next to the Open Door cafe where you can take your book you just bought to read! Or vice versa, take your coffee you just bought and browse books lol. It's inside on old house that's nice and cozy. It can be a bit crowded in holiday seasons due to lack of space. I do want to mention that this book shop and the whole downtown reminds me of Gilmore Girls in the winter time!

It's got a decent amount of stuff here. I wish there was more food/drinks here personally. This store has everything else at decent bargain outlets that lm impressed on.

The lady manager with no teeth thought it was appropriate to approach a four year old child in a very nasty manner accusing her of something she did not do. I tried to explain to her I am her mom and the proper thing to do is approach the adult that's holding her hand. She proceeded to yell and scream typical defensive behavior when your in the wrong. So she the start to follow me through the store yelling because I walked away from her. So I told her " get the hell away from me". She get upset and try to hide behind CFPD due to her disrespecting my child. The store was also very unkept someone brought a dog in the store where it was poop all in the aisles. If this is what represents Ollie's I would never shop here again. They should find employees who might care just a little bit. Worst experience ever

They also only do cash under $5, venmo $5+ and credit card $10+. It was my first visit so the woman allowed me to venmo her for my 2 books.

First off I'd like to say that it is awesome that Meadville even has a bookstore. In an era of…read moredigital technology bookstores all over the country are harder and harder to find. I love bookstores and have been to many throughout the country. Tattered Corners is very average. Mostly paperbacks here with an alright selection. The pricing system is very strange. Tattered Corners sells their books for half of what the publishers listing is. This leads to some either great or awful deals. For books produced in the 70's and before you can get them for a couple bucks. But anything from the 90's onward is between 8 and 12 dollars, and for a used bookstore that is kind of pricey. I understand that this is a small business and there is only ever one person working. So to expect employee reviews placed throughout the story (great bookstores always have these) I guess is a little too much to ask. Also, there are no collections of literary journals or magazines, (something I love about independent bookstores) so that is also a bit of a bummer. But as I said, I'm just being picky and maybe even a bit pretentious. I'm glad Meadville has a bookstore and I hope Tattered Corners stays in business for a long time!

They've closed the basement level and are sorting through the large inventory, curating what's on the shelves, and selling most of the used books for only $1-2 apiece. There's no longer a cat there, which is a little sad, but it does feel like a healthier environment and no longer a deterrent for folks with a cat allergy. I'm excited to see what's ahead for this friendly local business.
