Very disappointing visit. The clerk didn’t speak clearly and didn’t stop playing a game on the computer to help us.

This store is my favorite treasure hunt. I always plan to spend time and money in this store because I always find what I want but I go to spend the time hunting for the priceless gems. Worth the trip!

I had super high hopes, I love to support small book places because I think it’s adorable. However, my brain could not process the mess that the books were in. They were organized by genre, yes. But they were not in any order and they were ones hiding as well. I really feel like some organization to the way the books are displayed would help a lot. It’s just whatever you can actually see you can buy.

Excellent selection of sf. If I'm ever back in the area, I'll be stopping in again.

I love used book stores, esp if I'm not searching for anything in particular. This one is quite charming and well stocked, with some new books as well. They also have puzzles and CDs and DVDs. Next time I am in the area, I will have to remember to bring my old books for their trade in deal--50% off a used book.

Quite the variety of book here with super great prices too. They have a book trade too that gets you half off a used book.

Paperback Place has an interesting and vibrant selection. She thoroughly offers an array of items across all genres of fiction and a solid collection of nonfiction. Used books are also available and she is very mindful of the quality and condition of such items.In my experience, she is more than willing - happy even - to order items for customers and the prices are competitive.Perhaps not a Meg-Ryan-warm-and-bubbly-bookshop-proprietress, the shop owner listens to her patrons and makes every effort to meet their needs with future stock purchases.Though I do not buy nearly as many books as in previous years, I always look forward to browsing the shelves and strongly encourage shoppers to support this small business over Amazon and big box stores. Paperback Place is a sorely underrated gem in downtown Canandaigua.

This is a charming used book store that I only recently discovered. There are some new books for sale as well. A trade-in policy is quite generous; for each book you trade in, you get half off one of the $5 books. Most of the paperback and hardcover used fiction are priced at $5, and in very good or like new condition. There is a very impressive mystery section, also a lot of fantasy/sci-fi and romance. The general fiction section is good, as well. There doesn't seem to be a lot of children's books, but the ones that were in stock were unique. The nonfiction section is only a small fraction of the store (15-20%?) and has a well-stocked biography collection. I'm now planning a visit every time I go to Canandaigua!
