This bookstore is great! If you had every been to the old store (I guess it would be several years now) this is nothing like it, though it had it's charms then too. It is now a beautifully open space,...

The employees are always unbelieveably friendly. Some of the prices are a little high, but overall everything is reasonably priced. Definitely a place you can go for hours just to browse.

Not much of a fan of reading and such, but they did have this book that is incredibly hard to find! So, 5 stars for that.

This is what an independent bookstore should look like. Wooden shelves. Books I've never heard of...Most of them aren't by Tom Clancy or Dan Brown...oh well. I also like that even though there's a...

The nice thing about Time Tested is that their name is more than just a sign on a store front. Having opened in 1877 and not actually sold a single book (on purpose. In reality no books are for sale...
