Old time hangout when the kids where growing up. It’s an institution in Arlington

Great selection of books, very nice owner and employees and they buy books on a simple and straightforward way. Whats not to love!

Store has many good gems and if you have time to look through all the books I have you might find interesting books you never thought of reading, or books at a discounted price. Ive been very happy with the service and even have read it in books to use for partial payments on new books I bought from them

Great locally owned book store for all ages. Friendly knowledgeable staff.

I love the way this store is organized. Prices and selection are excellent. My only suggestion is to include additional shipping options on the website. I would love to continue to support you from out of town!

Ive been a customer for decades. Great selection and good prices. They sell new and used books and can order books for you. You can bring in books for store credit. Parking is at meters on street.

Wonderful local bookstore with great people. Mostly used paperbacks (lots of children’s, science fiction, mysteries, classics, history., cookbooks... ) and nicely curated selections of new books, games, local authors, and some markdowns. They make a special effort to get school reading list books. You can trade in used books for part credit or donate the credit to a classroom teacher! (check first; their space is limited so they are selective about what they take).

Great bookstore and owner is way nicer than Jeff Bezos.

An amazing place to get books for children and adults. Plus its great to be able to send books you are done with to find a new home!

Very friendly owners and great selection!

Great little used and new bookstore. Right in Arlington Center. They ask you to pause at the door but they will let you in to browse. I have had no trouble getting in or having to wait in line. Go check it out and support local business during this down turn

Great selection, great pricing. Online order process was efficient. They even held my order for me an extra day or two when I couldnt make it in immediately. Can schedule a browsing appointment if desired.

Very hip helpful staff. Many of the books are in very good condition.

Very kind person, very cute book store

Friendly people offering lots of used books and a small but good selection of new books, plus they take orders by phone or email too. As of November 2020 they offer curbside pickup and a small number of people can go into the store. Support your local independent bookstore!

Walking in - cant wait to peruse and read more.

I love Book Rack. Everyone there is so helpful and friendly and whenever I email they always get right back to me! It has been especially great during this time to be able to drop by and my books are all ready for me. Thank you, Book Rack!

A fantastic gem

This is our favorite local used book store. We trade in books for store credit and have found some nice gems for new reading.

Such a great, friendly book store chock full of books. Now you can order online and pick them up. Theyll order books for you if they dont have them. A good find.

Theyre just the best!

I love this place so much. The prices are amazing, the staff in great, and you can get credit for books. 5 stars all the way

Boutique bookstore with comprehensive collections. Great place to spare a few hours if not during the pandemic COVID-19

One of the great bookstores. Terriffic selection of both new and used books. Be sure to take advantage of the trade in credit system.

Love this book store, a true gem in the community.

Its an amazing place - they can tell you whether they have a book or not, & usually can find it in a few minutes. Used books are half off the cover price - even if that price was set 20 years ago! They carry new books as well. Really fun place to go & hang out.

My favorite local book store. You can get credit or money for your used books if theyre in good condition (and not the millionth copy of something they already have or something no ones likely to want). Mostly used books, some new and discounted, some cards and games. Very helpful people + they track what you buy and have saved me from re-buying books

👌

I think of this place as a favorite, local gem. There are lots of used books, especially for the younger readers. It’s perfect for when you are waiting on lunch (la taqueria is right across the street, or woori next door). I like to drop off my books, rack up a credit, and offset future purchases. I think you can offset up to 50% of used book prices. In any case, if you love books, you should stop by!

Been going here for years. Best place to buy and sell actual books. Used and nee. Will even special order any they do not have. Helpful friendly staff

I havent ever come in looking for a specific title, but I always find something interesting. Good selection of board books for babies and options for early readers and young adults too. Theres a good variety of fiction and non-fiction for adults as well. And the staff is very friendly!

Friendly staff. Good place to find used books, although it is a small store. Trade in your own books for credit.

I absolutely love the place. You can turn in books you own for credit and buy books with that, and also, its just a fun place to hangout. They have such a late variety of books there, of all different genres.its great!

I really like having a local used book store. The range of books is a little limited, hence 4 stars, but that is to be expected with small stores I think. Instead of going there to find one specific book, expect to have a fun search for hidden gems

Great bookstore. Nice folks too

What a fantastic bookstore! It defies description. It is a used bookstore, a new bookstore, cozy but with a wise selection. A great kids selection from easy readers to you adult. I spent an hour with my four kids, and we walked away with a nice selection of books for each of us, from Fancy Nancy to Journey to the Center of the Earth and the Once and Future King. The booksellers are knowledgeable and helpful. I only wish we lived closer!

Great little place! Love to get books here they have a selection of new and old stories...staff could be a bit more kid friendly. But, all and all I adore this store!

Huge selection and you can get credit for books you bring in. Very good mystery section.

Good variety of books, staff very helpful

I walked into the store and no one greeted me at all and I wasnt asked if I had any questions or needed help. I noticed that all the other customers in the store were being greeted, helped or having a pleasant conversation with staff. I bought some books and even then it wasnt a pleasant interaction like everyone else was having. I didnt get a thank you, did you find everything okay or have a nice day nothing. This is my first time ever writing a review for anything and I am only doing so because of how disappointed I am. Mind you this is not my first time there and not the first time I had the same experience. What really makes me upset is that all the other customers in the store including employees were Caucasian except me and that makes me scratch my head a little. I understand we are in Arlington but come on, Im a paying customer just like the rest. I really didnt want to make it a race thing but I could only help but wonder how the interaction would have been if I were Caucasian as well. Despite that its a cool little bookstore, the employees seem sweet and great unfortunately I just didnt get that experience.

Excellent used book store. Great selection, great prices. Urban fiction sometimes wrongly classified as romance novels, but thats a minor gripe. Store credit offered in exchange for books. :-)

I love this place. Have been going there for, 30 years. They have a great selection of books and magazines.

Great little book store. Friendly and knowledgeable staff

Good local bookstore

A cute little nook of a used book shop. Prices are great, especially with store credit from bringing in your own books to sell. They do prefer fiction to nonfiction when youre selling, so keep that in mind when clearing off your bookshelves.

Myself, my mom, daughter and aunt have been frequenting this place for years. For a cozy local shop, the selection is surprisingly thorough. Stock is constantly replenished and always au courant. And everyone working here is so kind, honest, and diligent. Prices are more than reasonable. Oh, and theyll order anything you request, on the rare occasion it is not carried or in stock. The Book Rack is a rare gem in which I have always felt quite grateful to spend my money.

Great selection. They know everything about books and they have every kids book you could ever want.

Nice charming secondhand book store. You can exchange your used books for store credit for up to 50% off used books and 25%off new ones. Decent selection of sci Fi, fantasy, action, historical fiction, romance, mystery and childrens books. (They have some cookbooks, art books and graphic novels but fairly small collection of those)

Very quaint charming little bookshop! The owner ladies are friendly and helpful

Excellent store to reacquaint you with the old school joy or reading books at very low cost (including trade ins!)

I get the best deals here!!! If you read a lot, this is the place to buy (and swap) your books at great prices! And, the staff is very friendly!

A nice a d cozy book store with new and used.

This is basically the book store from my childhood. Reasonably priced books, great selection. You could wander around in here for hours. If you go to the Aeronaut beer garden and bring your bracelet, theyll even give you a free book here!

Such a great family owned business they deff treat everyone kindly and are so knowledgeable on past and present books and history etc never had a issue such a relaxing place to escape to very rare gem to find a place like this where they make you feel like family I come for a distance when I have other places closer because its such a wonderful place to visit!!! 5 stars keep up the good work!!! I feel the person below me is making false accusations Agunest a small business shame on you I had to post this!!!

One of my favorite local places to visit with kids. Great selection of used books, most of which are in very good condition.

For the most part, the books were in good quality, but it doesnt have the nicest smell

This is the best book nook in the area, and brings together used and new books along with games and activities for littles. Books for all ages. Sell your used books too.

Beautiful store, no used books though just FYI!

Every square inch of this place is filled with used books, most in almost new condition, at very low prices. Trade in policy sounds like a good deal, going to try it out after I finish the ones I just picked up.

Lovely shop, very tidy and well-stocked. Reasonably priced, good selection.

Good local spot with frequent customer trade-in credit program.

Great place to get books for all ages. Amazing deals on used books.

Great bookstore! They almost have what Im looking for, used or new. Or, they order whatever I need!

Staff are all very knowledgeable, sure cool little shop!

Friendly, knowledgeable staff. Cozy shop well-stocked with books books books.

I love this place! Time breezes past each visit while perusing the expansive selection of science fiction and fantasy, two genres woefully lacking at most other book stores.

Great used book store with lots of titles, even recent releases.The staff is very friendly, if not a little quirky, but not unusual for a bookstore.

Very cool book store with a buy back program.

Nice folks, good selection, good prices, whats not to like? Nothing!

A treasure trove for readers! Theres a wonderful and wide selection here of everything: fiction, non-fiction, for the young and the old, and everyone in between.
