As someone who's recently rediscovered Isaac Asimov and is filling in the many gaps on my…read morebookshelf, this place was a GODSEND. I scored the majority of the Empire and Foundation novels for around $4-$5 a pop (and thank you again!). While it's a small store, it's WILD how many books are packed in here.

Plus, the experience of flipping through the mass market paperbacks while treasure hunting is the best! Every sci-fi/fantasy fan wishes they had a dedicated bookshop. I'm incredibly thankful that we have this one. It's so good!! Check it out!!

Me: Is the material here in the store? Paper Moon: Sure. It's in this box. (Reaches out and touches the box.) Me: Could I look through it right here, in front of you? I'll be really careful. Paper Moon: No. Me: Could you look through it, and see if you have any XYZ in it? Paper Moon: No. You'd have to go online. Me: And if I find something online, could I come and pick it up? Paper Moon: No, you'd have to buy it through the mail. Me: But I'm here, with cash. Paper Moon: Shrug. Me: (I went to their website later. There was nothing there. )
