A Destination bookstore for book lovers! A combination of used and new books on a wide variety of topics - you can tell that the selection is deliberate and thoughtful. I love the BC titles and staff picks on the front shelves. I want to give this store a 5 star rating but it guts me that it isn't wheelchair accessible. :( The bottom level is level entry and no step - but the technical and academic (anthropology, history, science etc) titles and study area are up large flight of stairs with no elevator. Main floor sections include mysteries, popular fiction, memoir, religion, self-help, BC books, travel, fantasy and sci fi and a nice children's books section.
