    They had so many books that I honestly haven't seen in a store in a Long time! A good portion of the books that I'm talking about are ultra expensive on Amazon and other platforms, so this is a breath of fresh air. Highly recommend you check this place out

    Guy who checked us out was pretty rude and off putting. Maybe train your employees to have better customer etiquette.

    Half Price Books is always such a fun place to explore, and my latest visit was one of the best yet. I went in hoping to find a few specific titles — books by Napoleon Hill and Dale Carnegie — and was thrilled to spot them both on the shelves. On top of that, I found two Xbox games in great condition at a price you really can’t beat. That combination of books, games, and surprises is exactly why I love shopping here. Every trip feels like a treasure hunt. The selection covers just about everything: classic and modern literature, self-improvement, history, cookbooks, kids’ books, vinyl records, puzzles, movies, and video games. You never know what you’ll find, but you can always count on the prices being fair and affordable. Their clearance section is a hidden gem on its own. I also appreciate that Half Price Books buys items directly from the community. It’s a great way to recycle books, movies, and games, while also getting a little cash or store credit to discover something new. The staff are always friendly, approachable, and quick to help with questions or recommendations. The store is clean, well-organized, and welcoming — perfect for browsing at your own pace. If you’re a bookworm, gamer, or collector, Half Price Books is a must-visit. Affordable, sustainable, and always rewarding!

    I didn't get to shop the store yet. They kept a book on hold for me. The staff and system were flawless. From the calI to the pickup in the store, I was in and out in 3 minutes. So incredibly helpful, on a busy Saturday. Going back ASAP.
