    On a visit from India, I accidentally came across this wonderful bookstore that has a remarkable collection of priceless books. The owners - Joel and Toni - are delightful hosts. Joel is so well-read that he acts as a mentor to anyone looking for books on their interests. And one of the best features is the prices! I bought three great books for a fraction of the price of the originals, all in the near-original shape. To all book lovers, I recommend this iconic store.

    (I'm on a used bookstore review binge) A used bookstore in the newly renovated part of town (still downtown), this place has got great deals. Every paperback is $3 and every hardcover is only $4. I found Carl Jung's "Man and His Symbols" a hardcover book from 1964, for only $4. It's usually $20 or more on the web. The website boasts space for spoken word, musicians, and artists. The owner and his wife seemed genuinely excited about what they can offer the town amidst this economy. If you stay and read they will give you tea! I imagine you will find what you are looking for at this place or a writing you were not aware of... will find you.

    I've been to Book Passage only twice now and had unpleasant experiences both times. Although it's…read morevery close to our home, I drive further to other independently owned small bookstores -solely because of the employees terrible attitudes here. It's sad because Book Passage has fantastic events, classes, speakers, and more. But the employees are SO useless and act like you're inconveniencing them when you ask for help to find things you'd like to buy. On my visit yesterday, I was shopping for some gifts for my former students and their parents (in SoCal). Naturally, this gift was to be special and I wanted to find the perfect thing for them. When I asked the woman (not sure of her name, but she has red hair in a long bob) where NorCal specific items were, she half motioned with her hand and said it was in the other building. When I went back to ask another question, she stared at me and then walked off. Another employee begrudgingly helped me. The two women working in the other building were deep in personal convo and looked SO annoyed when I asked about the gift items area. When I was rung up, there was no "thanks" or "have a good day", just silence. Wow, these ladies are so rude and such a buzzkill!! I debated leaving a review, but after I came to check other patrons experiences, I see this is their M.O and it should be a good warning to all that shop here.

    Nice independent bookstore that's in 2 separate buildings. They get a lot of authors and speakers…read moreso it's a nice part of the community. I saw Anthony Bourdain on tour right after kitchen confidential was popular 20 years ago. They have a decent used book selection too

It is small but packed with a nice mix of used books and the prices are really easy on the wallet. I have found everything from fiction to memoirs and kids' books here. It is always a fun surprise what you will come across. The store is super clean and well organized which makes it easy to find what you want without feeling overwhelmed. I love that the books are sorted by genre because it just makes the whole experience more enjoyable. They have two entrances you can use to get inside. One from Pine Street and another from San Anselmo Avenue. Town Books is located in the Courtyard building at the end of the hall so it is easy to find once you know where to look. The people working there are absolutely lovely. They are so friendly and welcoming that you instantly feel comfortable walking in. They are always happy to chat or help if you are looking for recommendations and you can tell they genuinely enjoy being there. Also they appreciate book donations. They accept gently used books during open hours in limited quantities about three boxes or bags per household. They also accept DVDs and CDs in their original packaging. They do not accept cassette tapes, vinyl records, magazines, games or puzzles. The nice ladies toward me that all profits from the sales go straight to supporting the San Anselmo Library so shopping here feels really good. If you are ever in San Anselmo and want to spend some time with good books and great vibes this is definitely the place to check out.
