A nice and quiet shop full of your favorite classics, popular authors, and new releases! There is a $1 cart out front, a retail selection, and a chair here and there, if you want to stay awhile. The staff is friendly, and it's nice and clean inside. I could spend an entire afternoon here whenever I don't have plans.

this is my go-to bookstore in south sacramento ! Crawfords's has given their store a major upgrade (i.e., richer curation of new & used books / genres, new shelves, knowledgeable & engaging staff (though that's been a standard :) their fiction collection is a treasure trove & they also carry a lot of newer titles likely relevant to local bookclubs and reading groups. i haven't sold books at Crawford's in a while, but need to soon !

Today they had a sale where it was $5 for a bag books, I went in to pay but my card wasn't working but then after multiple attempts to try to get the card to work the owner stepped in and just gave me them for free and told me they were a gift! And even after when I came in to buy another book a few minutes later and offered to pay her back, she told me it was alright and just told me to come back another time. The employees were just the kindest and so cool! I'd highly recommend because this made my day after a rough morning. 100/10

A small bookstore with a solid selection (both new and used). They mostly specialize in fiction (a hearty selection of general fiction, sci-fi, mystery, horror, romance, etc) but have some non-fiction as well (history, biographies, etc). I usually come here if I need something in the "Classics" category because they tend to be well-stocked. Staff is nice, and it looks like they do book clubs and small events as well. Parking is easy (shared lot with Little Caesar's and Hollywood Hardware) and overall it's a place every book lover in Sac should check out at least once.

I have seen this place many times but never once thought about going inside until today.In the last few months I have been getting into reading books more. I have been to Barnes& Noble and it is really hard for me to find books that peek my interests. It takes me a hour find something. (My husband hate it so much ? lol). So I wanted to look for more used books or small shops. To see if I can find some good books.Walking in I loved the atmosphere it was cute and welcoming. I made my way to the part of the store where my type of books are. (Cough, cough romance.) My husband began to hand me book after book I might like. And everyone I am like I want to read this. Less then 5 mins I had 7 books.I told him I need to leave because I will buy more! ?? The lady checking us out was really nice. She told me I made her day at oh many books I got less then 5 mins. Over all this is my new favorite place to get books.Atmosphere ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Price ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Finding what I came for ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
