A very unique book store. It's a bit hard to manage at first walk in. But if you know what you're looking for or if you don't. They have it labeled well for sections. If you give yourself the time and effort you can find some great things for a great price. I'd def. Go back.

An absolute charm of a store. Huge inventory of books at surprising fair prices.

This book store has a huge selection of books! I got several for just one dollar each!!! I really enjoyed looking through all of the options they had. It's kind of like a thrift store for books. Everything is thrown all together on a shelf with no specific organization (except for the category of book), but that makes the good finds so much more rewarding.

I found a lot of great books! Most were only $1.00! I'm 7 hours away, and I'd drive back just for more books!!

We had some time to kill while passing through Crossville, TN so we stopped to browse. This place is ok. There was a massive christian religious section; it included both fiction and nonfiction. That's not our thing. There was a decent amount of books that were non-christian books, but a lot of it was dated. It's great for browsing around, but don't expect to find a lot.

We had a pretty bad experience there. The high rating made us think it was going to be cozy and fun to browse. But it was very disorganized, and they don't keep records of their stock.I was disappointed that I couldn't even ask for certain books in stock when we finally gave up looking through the novel section that kept jumping around with author names.I don't know if we came at a bad time or if most people coming don't come to look for certain books. All in all, an unsatisfied visit.

Ah, my dear fellow readers and book enthusiasts, let me regale you with a tale of my recent visit to The Book Cellar in Crossville, Tennessee. As our weary family made our way through this charming town, we stumbled upon this literary haven, a place we were eager to explore. You see, we have a penchant for venturing into uncharted territories of used bookstores, seeking the thrill of discovering hidden treasures and embarking on literary adventures anew.Now, I must confess, while I do hold a certain fondness for bookstores, I find myself slightly disenchanted by libraries. No, not due to the books themselves, mind you, but rather the hushed atmosphere and the palpable discomfort that permeates the air. It's as if the mere act of uttering a word might shatter the delicate equilibrium, causing a cascade of disapproving glances and perhaps even an admonishment or two. Alas, my dear friends, The Book Cellar did little to assuage this unease, for it lacked the melodic embrace of music. Instead, we wandered through its halls, awash in an unsettling silence that resembled the mournful stillness of a funeral home, wherein ancient and forgotten tomes awaited their final resting place.To rescue myself from the clutches of this eerie silence, I hastily reached for my trusty AirPods, seeking solace in the melodious tunes that danced within their confines. Ah, the sweet salvation of music, like a lifeboat amidst a sea of unsettling quietude. Thus armed, I embarked upon my exploration of The Book Cellar's offerings, eager to uncover literary gems amidst a sea of old and forsaken volumes. It seemed as though the store's collection was divided, much like the proverbial wheat from the chaff. There were indeed charmingly worn books, their pages eager to be turned anew, awaiting their chance to grace a new shelf in an avid reader's abode. Yet, interspersed among them were the relics of yesteryear, neglected and ill-maintained, their fate seemingly postponed from the fiery pits of book hell.In fact, one could argue that The Book Cellar operates much like a noble institution—a No-Kill Animal Shelter, if you will—but instead of rescuing furry companions, it graciously bestows a second chance upon these forlorn books. Ah, such a noble cause, for every book deserves its day in the sun, regardless of its cover's wear and tear.Now, my fellow literary enthusiasts, if your heart beats with a particular fondness for the realms of science fiction, I must caution you to temper your excitement. At present, The Book Cellar offers but a meager selection in this esteemed genre. Fear not, however, for other literary domains appear to have found their home upon these shelves, boasting a more respectable array of options. Alas, if you find yourself yearning for Doctor Who adventures to grace your reading list, I must regretfully inform you that The Book Cellar cannot cater to your desires in this particular regard. Seek ye elsewhere, for the Doctor's tales lie dormant within other sanctuaries of literature.In conclusion, my friends, The Book Cellar presents itself as a charming stopover for the book-loving wayfarer. Embrace its quirks and idiosyncrasies, immerse yourself in the subtle humor that seems to permeate its very essence. Venture forth, fellow readers, and discover the hidden treasures that await, for in the world of books, there is always a story yet untold, and it is our duty to unearth these narratives, one page at a time.

I absolutely LOVE this place! What a Gem! If you love books, you have got to go! It is located in an old strip mall! This place is huge & loaded with all kinds of books, paperbacks, hardcover & even magazines! If you like Christian fiction, this place is a gold mine! If you are looking for a particular book, talk to the people at the register they are very helpful! If they have the book, they will show you where it is. If you aren't looking for a particular book, but lets say you want to explore the biographies or maybe the political section again, they will point you in the right direction. Its like a huge department store, so ask & they will guide you to the section you are looking for. However, if you feel like exploring, you will feel like a kid in a candy store! They also have DVD's, CD's and audio books. Their prices for used books are great & you will find many that are in great condition. Bring your used books with you, they will give you a credit to use within the store & as far as I know, it never expires! Their credits are based on condition & if they have other copies of the same book in the store. I've seen people buy shopping bags full of books, read them, then trade them back & use the credit to purchase more books. They also have bathroom facilities! My g-friends and I usually make a day of it, since we are 40 min away, we shop first & then grab some chinese for lunch, before heading back home!

Great used bookstore, with a good size selection of many different genres. Many books are well below retail.

Nice little used book store off the beaten track, at least for me. Only a few minutes off the highway. If you are hitting the local Buc-ees, they are just about two more miles down the street and worth the visit for any bookworm.

Larger inside than I expected. They have a lot of books in numerous sections. Great prices and very nice staff. Some sections had limited shelfing for books and so there were stacks of books placed in front of semi-organized rows of books. There is not a definite set system for organizing the books in each section. I was looking for a specific book title but the staff informed me there was no system used to check if this book was in their store.

Was seeking Europe history and travel guides. Found the selection incredible, prices low, most books $1 or $2. Found a copy of the Diary of Anne Frank, a travel guide to France ??, and a book on the German language ?. Excellent experience!
