The only reason I went inside of this store the first time is because of the cat that lives in there, and that is pretty much still the reason. I do always pick up a book or two while there. :)

Recycle Bookstore has a much larger selection than most used bookstores. It's clean, well-lit, and nicely organized. The staff took the time to help me locate several books.
