Simply the best

by scotsgirl940 at Citysearch

I've been frequenting this place since about the day it opened. And it's just gotten better as the days go by. From Art History to Music Scores and Criticism, Barbecue, DIckens, Childrens' Literature, the funky and the fabulous, this is bar none the best used book store I have ever found and I have found a lot of them up and down the east coast... Used bookstores in college towns tend to be pretty fabulous, and this one, betwixt Drexel and UPenn is just the right mix of sci-fi and scholar. It gives you everything you might possibly need and then some. Thank you, thank you, and thank you.

• Pros: overflowing with books
• Cons: overflowing with books to the point of exhaustion
