Love browsing through the old books ? & new ones at this store I can stay for hours just looking at all the variations of types of books and games, puzzles, bookmarks and other unique one of a kind finds. It’s a treasure trove of great books and items…..book related and not book related. Visit one! You will not be disappointed. I bought a Christmas gift ? card online Monday it was super easy and very convenient.

I always like visiting this store when I am in San Antonio. In fact, it is my favorite Half Price Books location. They always have a great selection of books and I always buy a book or two when I visit.

This Half Priced Books location is as good as the others with a large selection of various items. Always love it visiting these stores!The reason why I gave this location 4 stars is because of the lack of signage to direct where parking is. The parking spots are located behind the location, and it is hard to spot the parking entrance; it entrance to the parking spots is right next to a deli.

Had no idea I'd walk into a store that seemed to have so many books! I went as my sibling asked for old field guides for Christmas and found plenty along with other books about birds. I will definitely go back for myself soon! A good amount of books that I have on my to read list like Agatha Christie, romance, sci fi etc. (PS. I happened to be behind the last guy who reviewed actually-- the daughter was asked how she'd pay for the many books at the counter (obviously too young to pay) and the cashier didn't play along. I can't speak for the rest of the employees, but I think the cashier was caught off guard. Not his fault really.)

Great books, but the staff all wore scowls like it was a fashion item. My daughter tried to interact, be helpful, and make jokes to no avail. Absolutely not the place to bring a child that just simply wants to be friendly.

Huge selection of books, records and movies. Super friendly and helpful staff that will help you find the book you are looking for, even if they dont have it in stock, they will order it for you. I love the little gift options they have, journals, bags, pens, novelties and collectibles. I love stopping in to check out their revolving selection of books.

I was happy to find the book I instantly needed. I like the place and the design. It took some time to know how to enter the place, which was from the back. The book was very expensive compared to the price online. I bought it for 54 $ whereas my friend bought the same book for 13 $ online(1 star was removed because of this) the second star was removed because the book was missing a page and I don’t think half price books knew about it. This should have lowered the price of the book. It is a used book and not a complete one

It's always nice going to this half price, nice building, great selection of movies, books, games and comics but the past few times I've been the staff have been super rude and it's very Unsettling. When I asked the cashier for help she snapped at me and said "Give me minute" I replied "all good take your time" she replied again saying "GIVE me a minute" even more annoyed. When I was checking out I asked to use my coupon and she said "we don't take coupons here" but I used it last week at this location??? It's very sad when one of my favorite stores has only rude employees. I won't be visiting this place as much anymore

Recently, I came across a viral Facebook post showing this bookstore disposing of books instead of donating them. It's disheartening to see valuable resources wasted, especially when there are so many who could benefit. I hope they reconsider their practices, especially if they are benefiting from tax breaks related to donations.

Although small and old, I always tend to find good books here. The only negative would be the staff, especially nearing closing. They never fail to constantly remind how much more time you have left to shop and pay. If you wait too long they are extremely rude and curt with you. They REALLY want you out. I understand they want to close and go home, or wherever they have to go to, but there is no need to be rude with the customer who is taking longer to get what they want or find.

This is a great place to buy and sell books. The atmosphere is unique, making you believe that you've been transported to a world of books and memorabilia. Service is polite and helpful, especially since I was there to sell some books - cash offers are fair, as always. If you're a bookworm like I am, love comic books and graphic novels, and want to buy used books and other stuff, this Half Price Books has you covered!

Wonderful book-browsing experience! Two floors in a structure that feels like a PROPER bookstore. Excellent selection, competitive prices, and the staff was very helpful! Hope to shop again soon!
