Part of summer vacation is visiting used bookstores. Found this place two years ago and returned today:

*Solid education section, with good histories as well as a number of good teacher books. I bought a $4 copy of Louis Menand’s book on universities (Louis Menand, The Marketplace of Ideas: Reform and Resistance in the American University, (New York: W. W. Norton & Company, 2010).

*Good literary criticism and poetry sections too. I liked his novels so for $4 I bought this hardback collection of essays: 1. J. M. Coetzee, Stranger Shores: Literary Essays 1986-1999 (New York: Viking Adult, 2001).

Many fine dictionaries in good shape that I would buy for school if I didn’t have to drive them home and lots of fiction. If I lived here all summer, I’d be in and out of this store.
