Adrenaline rush. Any bookstore does that. Sometimes it's a tiny bit of excitement, others is more…read morelike an overdose of sugar and caffeine. Book Lover's Warehouse is closer to the latter. It had the aroma of books -- old books, to be precise. It's in a nondescript strip center and is very ordinary looking from the outside. It has a warehouse feel. Walking in, I could tell it wasn't what I was expecting -- a warehouse -- but more of a treasure trove of books, vinyl, DVDs, comic books, sheet music, and a few miscellaneous antiques. I can't say I figured out how it was set up, certainly by section, but there were hardcovers and paperbacks of many genre scattered. Or at least it seemed that way. Each section was roughly sorted alphabetically by author, so that made searching easier. I didn't see a lot of duplication in titles. I had only a limited amount of time before they closed. It was a kid-in-a-candy-store moment; too much to explore and limited to what I could grab in the short window of time I had available. It wasn't nearly enough to do the exploring I wanted. But, with that said, I did manage to pick up a couple of titles I haven't seen by authors I have and that was a win for me. As with most used bookstores, the price is about half of the cover price, except for the first edition, rare books, or collectibles. It's a good place to try out a new author or series without the financial commitment of a new bookstore; or if you want to try your luck with the comic books or vinyl. There's a separate display case of Elvis recordings and memorabilia -- this is Tennessee, after all, and I'd expect nothing less. Just a fun store all around.

From what I was told, the owner died and his son took over. Son didn't like the website, so down it went.

What rocket scientist thought it was a good idea to remove all of the comfortable seating areas…read morefrom the store? It used to be that one could go in there and get four or five books, order an iced coffee drink, sit in a lovely chair, and figure out which book or two one would purchase. Now, those seating areas are gone. I walked out without buying anything. If this is some sort of new corporate initiative, I will just stay home, curl up on my really comfortable couch, and get books on my Kindle. Stupid idea. Especially for a struggling industry.

Grade: A Atmosphere- Located in a strip mall, What you see with MEC is what you get. The store is well lit, reasonably clean with wide rows that are well stocked. The only major drawback is a strong musty smell that permeates throughout. This could probably be remedied with a good dehumidifier and carpet cleaning. Grade: C- Knowledge/Customer Service- while not as knowledgeable as other stores in the area, MEC is one of the more professional and friendly. Each staff member has been genuinely courteous, helpful and willing to go way out of their way to get what I need. One instance, the gentleman called a competitor to help find the book I wanted. MEC is also the best comic store in terms of price. It is the only comic store in the tri state area that offered a 10% discount for purchasing 5 or more books. Grade: A- Quality/Selection- MEC has a moderate to large selection of mainstream and adult comics. But if you are looking for Indy titles, this is your place. This section alone is larger than all new titles combined at their regional competitors. A small selection of games, toys and cards are also available. If you are looking for back issues however, I would try elsewhere. they have very little past 1990 and most is not in collector condition. On a side note, I would like to see a better display method for Marvel and DC comics near the front. Most comics in that space, on the other side of the counter are damaged along the spines due to over packing the comics into the media cases. Grade: B- Overall: This store has one of the largest selections of indy titles in the tri state area. Their customer service is second to none. However, if you need back issues, I would look elsewhere. Overall Grade: B-
