This is my favorite bookstore in southwest Missouri! The pricing and atmosphere are both great and I visit routinely to see what’s new 🖤 the owners are helpful and friendly too!
I was in town over the holiday and my dad took me to this gem of a bookstore. I scored a first edition of a Hunter S Thompson collection for next to nothing. Later that day I returned with an old friend and we both found a handful of collectible editions by Tom Robbins, Ezra Pound, Ernest Hemingway, and Henry Miller. The only possible weak(ish) link was the lack of a philosophy section. I’ve visited bookstores from coast to coast and in Europe. This place holds its own with the best of them. I’ll be back.
