She clearly knows the store very well and was able to give great directions of not only which aisle I needed, but the exact section.

Customer service is good, they are not overly friendly but very helpful when you ask them to help you find something. The place can be confusing as to how it's arranged but to me that's part of the fun. As for pricing, I think they're fair, about the same as the other more popular discount book store.

For the first time ever, Purple Rose: The Stars Carry Her Name -- Letters from Me to Her is now…read moreavailable in Washington State at King's Books just outside of Seattle. King's Books has an incredible atmosphere and a real appreciation for independent authors, poetry, and the arts. I had the opportunity to speak with the staff while traveling through the Pacific Northwest, and I'm honored to now have my book stocked in their store. Purple Rose is a collection of 33 poetic love letters written to one woman in Raleigh, North Carolina. You can also order books directly from their website and pay upon pickup.

King's is an absolutely lovely bookstore! I was hoping to pick up a couple of books used, but alas,…read morethey only had them new and one needed to be ordered. The employee was super friendly and even took a minute to look in a to-be-sorted pile just to make sure that they really didn't have what I wanted. The best part of the store?

The bookstore is sleek, clean and very well organized with a good selection of books. The staff member was very friendly and eager to assist me in getting a special order started for a book I was looking for. The special order came in a few days ago which is going to prompt a return visit and perhaps even additional books to purchase. Looking forward to continuing being a customer at this lovely bookstore!

This is a really cute local-owned bookstore. When I visited yesterday, I was pleased to see how…read morecozy and well-organized the store was. I appreciated that the different staff members had various books that they recommended highlighted throughout the shop. Service was great as I was greeted immediately and offered help while I was there (but not in a pushy/annoying way). The two paperback best seller's I purchased came out to just under $40 after taxes which seemed to be on par with/ slightly more than the big book chains, but spending a few extra dollars was worth it to me to support a local shop.

I was impressed by the special editions they carried and was impressed by their reasonable pricing. My favorite part was seeing all the local authors featured! We have a lot of literary talent in the PNW and it's even better when purchased from a local bookstore. Come when you have plenty of time! I had to rush a bit because I was fitting it in while in the area and I could spend hours here. Each genre is filled with options and there are so, so many. Great service, the staff is really friendly and welcoming.

What attracted me to this bookstore is the fact I saw Bluey on the display. I then came in…read morerealizing this was a bookstore. I usually don't go to bookstore, but I thought this place was actually very neat with all the selections that were available on that day. The upstairs is for children's books, but I really had to dig 'round in the different bins for Peppa Pig as the bookstore manager confirmed Bluey is a more popular character right now because I made a comment that Bluey was everywhere and had its own little display section around the store. Anyway, I was able to walk out with one book for myself to read and other books (Peppa Pig and Bluey) for my daughter to read. Oh, this place sells new and gently used books. You can trade in your old books for store credits from what I remember from my conversation with the store manager. It's a neat store to check out books in my opinion as it isn't overwhelmingly huge like Barnes & Noble. It's cute and quaint. I was rather shocked with the foot traffic that the store was receiving on that Friday morning.

Great selection and solid pricing. Most books fall in the $7-$20 range, with a nice mix of new and…read moreused titles. The checkout experience was smooth, though the space is a bit tight and there aren't many cashiers, so I could see it getting crowded during busy times. The reason I'm not giving 5 stars is the buyback program. I brought in 12 books that were new or in like-new condition (no damage, no markings and some hadn't even been read) and was offered just $0.50 per book, totaling $7 for all 12. This included three complete series and several standalone titles. Out of curiosity, I checked their shelves and saw some of the same books priced between $8-$15 each. Overall, it's a great place to shop for books, but I wouldn't recommend selling here if you're hoping to get fair value especially if your books are in excellent condition.

The gentleman at the main counter acknowledges your presence upon entering. I enjoyed wandering around the shop. More like zigzagging because I was trying to decide among which titles caught my attention. The humorous journals and cards elicited some smirks from me. Nice selection of titles in various genres. Even the kiddos will enjoy the children's section. Gift ideas galore. I ended up buying the graphic novel "Woman Life Freedom" edited by Marjane Satrapi. I enjoyed this French-Iranian author's previous work, Persepolis. A perfect purchase for International Women's Month. Highly recommended visit for bibliophiles!
