Amazing spot tucked in the middle of printers row. Great selection of books and competitive pricing.

This is a nice bookstore. I enjoyed browsing the aisles. We couldn't find a history section, though. I ended up picking a fiction book that I am excited to read. It was $18, which was less expensive than I expected. The lady at the checkout desk was friendly and helpful. I would recommend coming into this bookstore.
