"Each time we return to this perfectly wonderful bi-level shop we are impressed by its collection, particularly strong in mystery, cookbooks, travel and general fiction. The books here, we believe, are a true bargain and the quality of the collection is quite high." David S. and Susan Siegel in The Used Book Lover's Guide to the Mid-Atlantic States
