This place is heaven on earth if you enjoy looking for or at books of any kind. They are all second hand and range from literature and art books to children's books. It's a really special place and the prices are very reasonable. Make sure to bring cash. It's a bit of a ride to Hillsdale, but worth it if you like unusual bookshops.
