Lovely used book store in Cary, NC. I didn't realize it was here until maybe the 10th time I drove through the plaza haha. As soon as I noticed it, of course I could not resist going inside. The shop is larger than I originally thought. It has good lighting and welcoming, helpful employees. The shelves are well stocked and neat. It is challenging to look for a particular author or title. It is best to peruse the shelves looking for an interesting next read rather than something specific. The books are organized by genre and typically books written by the same author are beside one another. I could have spent hours looking around. I easily found more than enough options I wanted to read. I decided on a few to purchase. They were all in good condition and cost about $4-5 each, reasonable to used books. Any books you no longer want, you can bring to the store and they may buy them back. There is no guarantee that they will buy back any books. Overall, I had a positive experience here and recommend this bookstore to others!

I just happened to find this little book store by accident and I’m so happy I did! Customer service was excellent, she knew where everything was. I also learned that you can trade in or sell books you don’t need anymore and I have been searching for a place that does this for forever! I will definitely be a frequent flyer!!

A great used book store, clearly laid out, lots to browse through, and prices are VERY fair. The staff is genuinely friendly and helpful, and their hours are fantastic!

The bookstore has a solid collection. U Unfortunately, the staff were a little rude while I was there and when I asked a question about where a book was. I would still recommend them if you are interested in cheap resale books.

Fairly priced books ($1-$5), however their selection is quite limited. They don't stock very many well-known books & most of their books are somewhat dated (pre-2000). The atmosphere was somewhat stale as well, if you're someone that enjoys a book store for its ambience- this one was definitely lacking in that department (no music, overwhelming smell of mold & body odor, overall dirty feeling in the store). The staff was friendly but quite unhelpful, they don't keep inventory so there's no point in asking/calling in to see if they have a certain book in stock. Additionally, with no music or anything playing in the store, all we could hear was an obnoxious employee going into unnecessary detail about his "crusty & scabby tattoo", which there was no escaping because he could unfortunately be heard even in the furthest corner of the store... Overall, this store's best quality is the pricing on their books, but good luck finding what you're looking for-- & don't bother asking the staff for help.

This is a good no-frills used book store for aimless browsing, but it was kind of difficult for me to find books I had on my list because the Health section seemed a bit disorganized. Nevertheless, I'm very happy that this used book store is in our community. So many brick and mortar bookstores are no longer open.

Very very low prices, which is awesome, but inventory is very very little. Very small, "cozy" spot. I know they maybe can't control their inventory idk, lots of novels and fiction, if that's your genre then maybe that's 4 stars..I'd like a personal growth section.I recommend you go, but check inventory by phone before you go. you get lucky sometimes

So nice to go in a used book store so well organized. And books arranged alphabetically. So you can go with a specific list or just look around and be surprised.Staff consistently pleasant and helpful.Have found numerous books to read.Last visit saw quite a few Outlander and Game of Thrones pb. :)

Went to sell books, won't go back again. As other reviews state, older female clerk in charge of buying books was not friendly and laughed at me when I asked how long it would take for her to get to my books. At least 20 piles/bags/boxed of books were left all over the floor right at the front door, she told me to put mine in line, no explanation of process or timeframe, I felt like an inconvenience not a customer. I took my books, won't go back I'd rather just donate them.

Decent collection of used books. I'd love to have some seating so I could spend more time, but that is a luxury. If you're a reader, you must check this location out!

I like going in this store, it's clean and the clerk is very nice and helpful. A wide variety and lots of newer/best sellers too!

Great little bookstore, one of the few in the triangle. Good prices, but somewhat limited selection. About half the store is mystery and romance, but they have a good children's section.

If you're looking for cheap, good quality, older books this is the place to go! Most of the books were priced between $2-6 and seemed to be in pretty good condition. They have a small section at the front where you might find some newer releases, but aside from that you'll mostly find older books here. Definitely worth checking out from time to time as their collection is constantly changing as new donations come in.

Love going here. Great selection, fair prices, well organized, and super nice staff. If you’re selling books, come during the week when it’s not busy. They usually take almost everything I bring in to sell and you get a good amount of store credit, but if you want cash it won’t be a lot back. So, just something to consider.

This is a great store where I have found many good books I didn’t know existed that I loved. Great selection. However, I went in today and it smelled like someone died and it made me walk out not even a minute after walking in. I threw up outside and the smell stuck in my nose for 30 minutes after leaving. Wax melts do wonder's so use those.
