| - Rob. W. and I stumbled over this place when we first moved to town a couple of years ago. We had a bunch of books that we'd been given and didn't have a real interest in reading most of them. I did a quick search of our new neighborhood and found a place that we could try and sell them at. We lugged all the books with us, and we ended up selling about 6 of them (the ones in good condition and in demand). For having purchased none of them, we were psyched. Needless to say though, after exploring the shelves for about 15 minutes, we ended up spending way more than the value of the books we sold.
Date Night - with or without your SO: If you like to read, or enjoy looking at pretty little things, this is the place for you. They have books for everybody in a wide price range, and cute knick-knacks. This place is also full of beautiful journals near the front door that inspire you to write.
Service: I wouldn't say that everybody is approachable, however, the people I've interacted with have been incredibly friendly and so kind. For instance, the middle-aged female cashier who helped me out today was the kindest person. She was genuine and caring.
Special events: They do book-signings here and special speaking events. We'd stumbled into the store one evening and knew from the packed parking lot that there was something happening that night. The event area was completely full of people, both sitting and standing. The speaker was a constitutionalist. You can probably guess what he was speaking about given the day and age we're living in.
Whenever I have a chance, I'll come here. I don't need to buy anything. Just wandering around the books for a bit lifts my spirits.
