The selection was great and they had a variety of different kinds of media. The bookstore has a lot of character, and I am already kicking myself for not swooping up Dave Grohls autobiography that was in the window. I may pop back over and snag it before my flight tomorrow.

Great prices on used books & a huge selection! You feel like you're in a library, such good vibes.read more

The merchandise is equal parts books and products from local artists (and local beekeepers and Kombucha brewers!).I purchased a used book that I'd been wanting (for $2!), a jar of local honey, and spent some time speaking with the charming owner about the history of the building. It's a former bank, and the mystery section is located in the bank vault. Look a little closer at a counter where books are displayed - that's bullet proof glass and gun portals from another era. The Book Teller is definitely worth a visit, even if you're not much of a shopper - but if you are a shopper, you will love the handmade jewelry and textile products found here at very reasonable prices.

I like this place! It's a small shop in the middle of town that offers used books, new books, and…read morethe wares of local artists. You can also find some nice coffee there as well. The shop is in an old bank building, and the building's features - teller wall and vault - are in use. The shop is organized well and beautiful, and is a comfortable place to visit. There is a children's section, and there is interesting availability in other genre's, considering the size of the store. Most of all, I think I appreciate the genuine community focus and the non-pretentious feel of interacting with others. I understand that they host community gatherings, which I hope to experience soon. Otherwise, I will be there on the next day that I'm ready to read something new and have no idea what it should be.

Inside, the store gives a nostalgic feel, with a few old Underwood typewriters displayed to give even more an old-timey punch. I easily navigated my way through the store, seeing the different genre sections clearly posted (Poetry, Non-fiction, etc.). I bought two books at $17.95 ea, but found others that interested me at around $24.95 ea. Not all books are sticker price labeled...on older books, they write a price in pencil inside book on front page! As a local (Wisconsin) writer, it's nice to find a bookstore that offers selected writings in an atmospheric way that big chain-stores just cannot duplicate!

Rare Vision Books is a fantastic find in the quaint town of Genesee Depot! Everyone should take a…read moreday trip to this tiny town with great things to see and do. This small shop on the main street that cuts through town offers a glimpse into literary magic. They offer beautiful vintage and unique books that you won't find anywhere else. It was like a treasure hunt, looking to discover special books you didn't know you wanted - and some you have been looking for, for ages! The owner is just as special - so friendly and welcoming. It felt like I was visiting their home. They chatted about their love of books and easily assisted us on our hunt.

Books are great. I mean I don't read them all that often, admittedly, but what can you expect when…read moreNetflix just got the full catalog of 'The L Word' and regular bookstore prices average $16.95 a book? I can't afford that ish... but that's where The Green Spot comes in. Budget Used Bookstore? I'm in! Sure, it's teensy tiny and hidden in the very far back corner of the Woodstock "mall", which isn't your traditional mall, more like just a big building (that would still pale in comparison to your average mall) with a vegetarian restaurant, a sewing store, a bathroom, a karate dojo and this bookstore. It's kind of like a more vertical strip mall, actually, but that doesn't really matter I guess. When I first walked by some of The Green Spot's outside book-stands and saw religious books, I almost turned around right then and there, but then I saw a nice little ole lady with a kitten purse who looked so inviting as she was working in the store, and who explained the sections to me and that's where I officially figured out that it wasn't at all a religious place, they just had a ton of those types of books priced to go, go, go... Inside, I saw one book for $3.95 and nothing else over $2, with most being in the $1 to .50 cent range. Not a bad deal. I found a huge 10+ lbs almanac of animals for $1 - ONE.SINGLE.DOLLAR. The selection wasn't half bad either. I mean, you likely wouldn't be able to find a specific title, but if you walked in just wanting to peruse, you'd have no problem finding *something* to pique your interest. They even have a nice selection of pretty classic DVDs (Big Lebowski, Eternal Sunshine and more) all priced at $1. I can't even rent DVDs at the library that cheap. Such a steal. The woman also mentioned that they often have large book sales where a literal truck load of used brooks is brought in, and they take over the entire lower level of the "mall" and everything is $2 or under. Can't wait to head back for some good ole fashioned book bonin'.
