    First time visit since they moved! Enjoyed the selection. Maybe it is not as big as before? But still wonderful!

    Book-hounds is a hidden treasure for avid readers. Gently used books are reasonably priced. Book hounds has a small town feel with the friendly store manager, the cat, walking around supervising and coming up to customers to say hello.

    My daughter loves the books and I love the pricies!

    I have followed them for years for all my used book needs and have not been disappointed. From the location off Fruitvale Ave, to the Rosedale location, to the current location it's always worth it. While this latest location is really far from my house and not an area I travel frequently I'll will gladly make the trek when needed. They always keep the books organized within organized making it easy to fine the genre needed. Is it hot during the summer months? Yes but I try to go early and beat the heat and get the deals! I'd definitely try them out especially for any new teachers trying to build their classroom libraries since they have discounts for teachers with ID!

    Excellent used books and great prices. They also pay very well for slightly used books. Great experience every time!

    Do you accept book donations?

    Yes they do! I believe they even buy books depending on what they are and if they need the genre.

    I had a good experience here. Everything was nicely organized and not overpriced. I found a few…read moregems and it was not crowded, I got to take my time and browse. The employees were very kind, I even broke an item on accident (I really wanted this glass jar too) they were concerned if I was hurt. I would definitely revisit when passing through again.

    Just went in for a visit today, first time and so disappointed. I was excited to explore and look…read morefor some cool finds. Sadly it was ruined by one of the workers. As my boyfriend and I were browsing through their selection we decided to stop to take a picture at a mirror near one of their sections. I don't know if the employee knew how loud she was but we clearly heard her comment, "Every time people pass by that mirror they stop to take a picture. It's stupid. It's dumb." It dampened our moods completely. We didn't get to even finish looking at the front of the store. We put the item we had in our hand back in their place and left. Really saddened about the experience and the fact that we couldn't enjoy the rest of the store as we could see they had lots of variety and the prices seemed reasonable from what we did see. Here are some of the pictures we managed to take before leaving. Update: upon further review a lot of recent reviews seem to be about the same women with the same common factor. She only provides terrible atmosphere and service to people of color. Which is very disappointing to see that so many customers come excited to come and explore to only leave feeling worse due to something we can't change. Especially in this climate and day of age, it's saddening to see such hate being spread.
