Great store large selection low prices

A very charming used book store with a pretty good selection.

I walked into the store and no one greeted me at all and I wasn't 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 wasn't a pleasant interaction like everyone else was having. I didn't 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, I'm a paying customer just like the rest. I really didn't 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 didn't get that experience.

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.

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!
