Neat little place. Very cute. Had a decent assortment of books, and some whose genres are pretty uncommon. No pricing on a lot of books, so my wife rang up a children's book for $23. Felt compelled to pay, so she did.

Surprising amount of tarot and oracle cards, and spiritualist books. Highly recommend
