A bookstore will stop me in my tracks. And this one did. My boyfriend and I are both booknerds, so when we saw a 2nd hand bookstore, we both knew we had to stop in. We had to peruse and spend time within the delicately scented pages that lined the walls. We did purchase from the merchant too! I got a book that tells all the ghost stories of the city and he picked up some post cards to send to folks since this was his first trip to the city. I will certainly come back to patronize this place as long as it’s here.

This is a terrific second hand book store with a great selection of used books. I tend to gravitate to the metaphysical & spirituality sections and they have some really awesome titles from some of my favorite authors. Very organized, amazing selection and friendly service.

On a family trip to St. Augustine my sister wanted to make sure we stopped in here and I’m glad we did. The woman working at the desk was extremely kind and helpful while referring books to read. Although the bookstore was quaint the service and overall organization made the experience one to remember.

Love this place! Ms. Evelyn suggests a new book to me every time I’m there. The Shack and A Year of Wonders have been two of my all time favorites. The store has a good collection of books.

It’s been seven years since I’ve been to Second Read books and I still tell people they need to stop there if they visit St. Augustine. I used to sneak off to Second Read about twice a year when I couldn’t handle Gainesville for another second, and they always had a stash of Margaret Atwood books that they’d held for when I came back next. I’d buy half of them, insist that I not be not be allowed to buy any more… and come back in two hours and pick up the rest. Very fond memories of hours spent waiting out rainstorms, talking about everything and trying to make the gumball machine obey us.

Stopped here while visiting friends in St Augustine. Nice selection, and everything is in very good condition. Paperbacks are 50% off the cover price, I believe, so you can get a good deal, even compared to buying used online, once you consider the shipping costs. The woman running the store was very helpful– once I had paid for my selection, she wrote the name of another book she thought I would like, that they didn’t have in the store just then, on the receipt. I thought that was very thoughtful :)
