Victoria is a cute little town and Chapter One is a lovely addition. There is a large section for younger readers and the adult section has many of the newest popular reads. The service was friendly and welcoming, making this a great stop if you're looking for a friendly bookstore!

I stopped here looking for a particular book & to kind of just browse. I did find the book I wanted…read morebut the price was bit more than what I wanted to pay, especially for a used book. I did find it cheaper online and ended up getting it elsewhere. I like that they sell a variety of other items as well. I like seeing what games, video games and sometimes movies they have. They are well stocked up w/ items but the store can feel a bit cramped when busy as the aisles are a bit narrow. I will say the staff weren't very friendly. When checking out the cashier rang me up without saying a word to me- which is weird. I feel like if that's the case just have self checkout. The parking lot is a bit hectic but usually no issues finding a spot.

I stopped in on a Saturday morning looking for some time to kill. I've been in the market for new…read moreboard books for a nursery. The store has a lot to offer, but the children's section needs some work. I couldn't quite grasp the organization method. I also found a lot of books that were in the wrong section Which made it hard to know if I was the problem or if there just wasn't a rhyme or reason to the organization. Prices seemed a little higher than other Half Price Books. A couple of the items that we were interested in were pre-condition to say the least... Yet they still wanted 7 to 8 dollars. I did end up, leaving without purchasing anything this time, but I'm not opposed to coming back and checking out the other sections of the store. It seems like they have a really good system for buying books and there were a lot of other patrons taking advantage of this. If you have some time to kill and you're looking to browse some books, definitely stop in. Just make sure you know that you'll be there for a bit because it's not super well organized.

This is a wonderful little corner bookstore on the west side of Central Park. For such a small…read morelocation they have an incredible amount of inventory. In addition to books there are magazines, comic books, calendars, and puzzles. The owner is very nice and he's almost always the person working there. Like myself, he's a big history fan, and has given me several good suggestions when I've been looking for a new book. I would expect him to know a lot about books, but when I mention a title, he speaks about it like he's read it. He probably has. I've been buying books here for years. Typically I use Amazon to research titles and reviews, and then go to this store to buy it. It's rare that there isn't a copy on hand, and if not they will have it there quickly. These small bookstores are need to be supported.

My medium has all the flavor and just a hint more. They nailed it. This is a neat little whole in the wall place that also sells books. My co-worker snagged one up for some reading later.

It's a used bookstore (also has rare and out of print books), and the prices of used were reasonable. The books were organized by genre, and had some displays (such as all Stephen King books).

My grandchildren would just love to spend time looking for that perfect book. And the rest of the store, you could get lost looking at the selection for all ages. The homey atmosphere brought me back to my childhood library. I went there to see if any of my older books would be of interest for them to buy. The service fit the atmosphere of the bookstore. Very down to earth, very helpful and she quickly went through the boxes and executed a transaction of very fair price. I love books, happy to know my books would go to a good home. I will be back to experience leisurely checking out the bookstore more.

Get ready for used books at Paperback Exchange!…read more When you first walk in, the piles of used books are a tad overwhelming, but it also lets you know where to spend a few hours book-hunting. The small space is filled to the brim with books of all varieties and all conditions! The girl working the counter was friendly and helpful. She also let us know about the discount/credit customers receive when they sell books to the store. When looking for cheap used books or trying to get rid of books you no longer need, Paperback Exchange is a great place to try!

The selection is a little heavy on the romance, but my mom took plenty of those off their hands. Don't worry though, there is plenty more to search through and it's very well organized. Organization is key with these kind of stores or it's just too overwhelming. Helpful staff, street parking, great selection. The pricing is a little confusing on trade-in stuff, and the prices in general are a little high for used books, but that won't stop me from coming back. It's in a great neighborhood with a coffee shop right next door. Grab a book and then go grab some coffee. Perfect.
