Testimonials
New books are rotated into the stock regularly. Recent reorganization of the store looks great. If you like piles of books, searching for treasures, and people named Bob – this is the shop for you. Every time I am in Joplin I pick up a stack of delightfully used paperbacks.
Always Buying Books is the ONLY bookstore I go to. Best selection, best prices and best service.
What a lovely spot that we found. We spent a good time looking through all the books. The owner was there and very kind, as he was able to point us to books. We found stuff for us and our kids. If you live close, you are lucky. If you are traveling close, it’s a fun stop! Keep reading.
Quaint little book store. Owner was fun to talk to.
Today was the first time going to this bookstore and I would give it 100 stars. The place is so organized and the people that run it are so helpful. I don’t know their names but the owner knows what he is doing and the lady that helped has been there 18years. They had all the hardback books of John Grisham I needed to complete my list. I will be going back next Friday to top off my list. Thank you so much for being there and helping. CHECK IT OUT……
