Check and check and check. It's on Wall Street, the street behind Main Street in Waynesville, so don't sleep on it and do take the small alleyway down to Wall and into the underground feeling bookstore. There, you'll be in the labyrinth of literature, a veritable hallowed hall of hardbacks, a perfect little palace of paperpacks. The shop is very reasonably priced; I found a title from 1953 for just $4 and added it to my read-while-traveling library. I also had a lovely conversation with the owners who have stewarded the shop in its current iteration and who really love what they're doing. Worth your time to step away from Main for a moment, you'll definitely discover something when you do.

The prices of books in the store were nicely priced and like most other book store prices around.

There's a real focus on local titles from the practical hiking/outdoors to the regional cuisine; you can really explore the WNC through books and they've got exactly the right setup to do it.
