If you like used and vintage styled books, this store is perfect for you. This store is definitely not like a Barnes and Noble, but overall they have a decent selection of books. They do have a really cool rack that highlights local books from local authors in the area. Read more

It's a smaller store, but very well curated. They are on the higher end of things, but again these are rare and out of print books. The historical/military maps were really cool as well. I could spend a fortune just on those. Unfortunately I didn't plan for that kind of book spending having bought so many on my other recent travels. I found a rare print I've been looking for and stubbled on it just laying on the floor. I instantly knew it was more than I could really spend and still teased myself. Now that I know, I'll have to save up and cross my fingers it's still there. This is definitely a good place for a hardcore bibliophile. Read more
