I appreciate being able to support my reading obsession by returning the books after I've read them and receiving credit towards others. As a small business owner, she is vested in making our community a wonderful place. Just a couple of examples: WI authors receive support by book signing events, her store features beautiful homemade greeting cards supplied by a local crafter, and cat toys are sold with the proceeds are used for caring for cats in need. My cats give them two paws up for entertainment value! Please stop in when you have time to browse and shop; you won't be disappointed

The place is huge, and they have an amazing selection. I always leave with at least 2 or 3 books. All the books are used but in excellent condition, which means prices are lower than at many other stores. The employees are both friendly and helpful, and -- most importantly -- they have friendly bookstore cats. Need I say more?

Love this bookstore. It's one with nooks and crannies of books throughout. It's in an old…read morebuilding, the character of which lends itself perfectly to a used bookstore. It's narrow, or perhaps seems that way because of the shelves of books, but it extends into a back room. It's easy to lose track of time exploring. The aisles are decent, I suppose, but might be a problem when perusing the stacks if other people need to get by. There are two cats that roam freely, meowing loudly when they want attention, but do not otherwise bother anyone, unless they sense a kindred spirit. They kind of give this place a home-like atmosphere. I only had a few moments and that didn't give me quite enough time to figure out the layout, but things appear to be sorted by category and then by author, like most bookstores, but with some cross-over sections. The general fiction is in front. There's a nice mix of books within each category, and not many duplicate titles. Thimbleberry Books is a winner.

The selection here is HUGE and well organized. I was shocked at how terrific and well stocked the kids section is. From picture books to Chapter books, they have it all. I can't wait to show my 9 year old all the treasures here. The prices are outstanding. There is both a regular price on the inside cover and a "return credit" amount. You can read the book to your hearts content and bring it back for a credit toward a different book. How awesome is that? Also, there is a puzzle exchange at the back. I got two books to help me learn Spanish (a pandemic project of mine that is ongoing) for $7. Did I mention how much I love this bookstore?

Still, I don't go to sell books there often. It's more about the thrill of the hunt. What will I find? Will it be a cool, British-cover edition of a Terry Pratchett novel? Will it be a Japanese import of an ELP concert? Will it be a cheap mug with a kitty on it? The only way to know for sure is to show up and look...

Looking at the sign on the door, I realized I was making this discovery 13 minutes before closing. I was greeted when I walked in and assured them I just wanted to poke my head in, as I saw they were getting ready to leave, and was told I was welcome. I made a quick lap around just to check them out, and stopped by their merch counter to grab a quick souvenir. I love a local bookstore, and grabbed a coffee mug to remind myself to come back. They had a cute setup and a table dedicated to my current favorite obsession, Dungeon Crawler Carl. They had signs everywhere informing everyone of their planned move, apparently out of the basement. I am not sure where they will be next, but I will make a point to search them out the next time I am in Madison. And come in plenty of time to peruse.

The owner told me she made them from recycled cabinets- so creative! The store has a huge mystery, horror, and romance sections. There are some smaller self-help, history, sports, and biography sections. There is also a great clearance section with some blind reads near the front door. I also recommend you checkout the selections of bookmarks and stickers near the cashier. The bookmarks are made by local artists.
