I am a book lover and overall had a good experience here. Don’t expect cheap used books though, they kinda ask a lot $ wise, but I did find a couple under a dollar in the children’s section so you can find some deals.

If you can't find it try McKays! They have books, yes, but they have collectibles of all kinds and eras. It's a busy place, but so worth your time. The check out is quick and the employees are friendly and knowledgeable. Prices are SO reasonable.

Great place to find collectibles. Beware: most customers lack any type of body odor repellent. It's usually busy, so don't expect a lot of room to walk around, but the check out process usually goes by fast
