The atmosphere of this bookstore is absolutely adorable. They have little vintage trinkets and antique furniture splurged around the store. It is very aesthetically pleasing. The staff is also very nice and it is pretty well organized. There are a LOT, I mean, a LOT of books but the selection is not as great as I’d hoped. I know I may be coming off a little picky(It IS a used bookstore, after all), but compared to others I’ve been to(like Big Apple Books), there is not as much variety as I’d hope for. The sections are organized off but still a little difficult as some of the smaller ones aren’t as separated and kind of overlap each other and the big ones are… well…big. Like there is a HUGE mystery and HUGE romance section which is great and I understand that they can’t pick and choose what they get sold, but I just wish there were more variety of other sections. Also, I noticed that there are a LOT of repeat titles, which means they get a lot of the same books. The way some of the books are stacked looks really cool but at the same time, I’m short, and wasn’t able to see a lot of the titles. I stayed there for a long time and only bought one book that had caught my eye and it was pretty random. I found it by chance, but a lot of the books I was actually searching for, I couldn’t find. They have some titles but not the most popular ones. I was looking for more of the classics. That being said, they sell and buy books weekly, so the selection is probably constantly changing so I’ll definitely be back to look for more! Happy Reading :)

As you can see from the pictures this shop has a fantastic atmosphere. Vast selection of books of all genres. Friendly staff. It’s a really cozy discount book store. You can find newer books as well as older books at a great price. All of the books that I have seen from this store have been in great condition as well!

This is such a unique and wonderfully cozy bookstore in South Florida. The selection is always changing but the lovely atmosphere always remains the same. As does the adorably sweet Catsby that wakes up in time for a good scratch behind the ears whenever you go to pay for your finds. Perfect place to stop after I have my afternoon tea in the plaza’s equally enchanting English tea room. Perfect ingredient for a relaxing day!

In terms of atmosphere, this one cannot be beat. Mixes the feel of a trendy or chain bookstore with the local used book store well. The used paperbacks are sold at ½ of the cover price, regardless of year or edition. For this reason, perhaps, there are barely any collectibles or rare editions(or much vintage stuff altogether). I was interested primarily in used sci-fi and fantasy, of which the selection was poor, but still much better than you’ll find in chain stores. The prices were indeed the cheapest I’ve found, though, and there are many other sections to peruse. Volume One Books down the street has easily 20 times(no exaggeration) larger selection of vintage and used sci-fi and fantasy, but they do charge half of current market(amazon), not cover, price. In summary, for the latest mystery, romance, or thriller at new or lightly used condition head on over to Second Edition. For collectors of and/or sci-fi and fantasy(and most other categories) Volume One down the street.
