That first review was accidental...I was at the store this week and found exactly what I was looking for! And at a great price! The gentleman who waited on me was super high helpful and very personable. I always have a good shopping experience here!! Apologies for the first review. I highly recommend this store!

Loved this bookstore! They were very helpful and fair in their pricing for my books that I sold to them. Has a great feel to it and a great set up for teens and young readers! I wish I would’ve gone sooner! This will definitely be a place my kids and I visit again!

Sadly, this store closed in June ☹️Nice small used book store near my neighborhood. Nice selections. Has great program to turn in your own used books for credits to use against future purchases. The store also offers a meeting room for community use.

Love this little book shop. Return you books and receive credit on your purchase...great way to read and be ready to hunker down for a relaxing day home or away. Not a big box book store, friendly and helpful if need be, take your time and browse. Lots of selection including LARGE print. Lucky to have this gem in DE!

I liked this store because it had great 80s paperbacks and stuff and its sad its gone cause there arent many book stores no more and i like an actual book not online stuff im sick of online and why isnt anyone sick of it yet is beyond me . This store should have stayed we dont need another star bucks or nail saloon or ANOTHER royal farms. Boo

They are closing. This was to be their last week, so I went looking for the promised %70 off. But now they have extended their last day for several more weeks, so they are still working on %60 off....but still got some fabulous deals!

This is a good place to trade in books for store credit and browse books. They usually have some of the most sought after items for less. Staff is very helpful and friendly.

Loved this little place, sadly its open mainly the hours I work myself but I love going here for a good deal on books on the weekend or an odd day I get off early, feels like such a treat. Everyone here was very nice, and the store is very large. The only downside for me was knowing where to start!
