The layout is more spacious, there are a variety of cozy seating options to enjoy your new finds, and they have expanded their selection even more than the previous location. I'm happy they now have records available for purchase. The store has a cool vibe and the employees are very friendly, happy, and helpful. I adore this bookstore and recommend it to all my friends and family.

I had a specific book in mind that I wanted to look for, but I had to give up because I couldn't get into the section due to there being no space to walk around people. I didn't even get a chance to see what their prices are like, so I can't really comment on much aside from how adorable it looks on the inside and I wish I could have walked around freely!

The Book Room in Wilkesboro is a charming, pint-sized treasure tucked into what looks like a…read morehistoric tiny home--possibly older than the Wilkes Heritage Museum itself--and it radiates warmth and whimsy from the moment you step up to the porch. Inside, the space is packed with personality: shelves of new and used books mingle with handmade jewelry, stickers, stationery, teas and thoughtful gifts. It's the kind of place where you can browse for a cozy mystery, pick up a blind-date-with-a-book bundle, or find a locally made trinket that feels just right. The owners - sisters with deep Wilkesboro roots - have curated the shop with care, creating a welcoming nook that feels more like a community living room than a retail space. Whether you're hunting for a literary escape or just want a sticker that makes you smile, there's surely something here that fits your budget and your mood. It's a delightful stop that adds depth and charm to downtown Wilkesboro's growing cultural scene. [Review 1212 of 2025 - 4397 in North Carolina - 24764 overall]

My first visit here in quite a while. I had attended one of their huge Cons years ago. Since I grew…read moreup in the area and collected comics for over 50 years, I was curious to see their new (to me) location. After a dizzying trip through traffic and construction I finally made it. It is certainly impressive being greeted by Spider-man battling Doc Octopus overhead. Tons and tons of comics, magazines, books, games, etc. So much to see hard to take it all in. The only thing I missed were the displays of beloved titles from the 1940s to 1960s. So I was told of a huge comic show in Boston and large stocks were sent up there. A very impressive store. Everyone was very helpful and answered questions that I had. I even brought a small box of my personal comics for them to look over. They liked the books and the condition and we agreed on a price for them. Very nice people and very pleasant atmosphere.

Whenever we visit cities outside our hometown area, we always look for bookstores ... used books…read moreor new. On this visit to Charlotte, NC we stopped in at the Book Rack. Besides a focus on mystery and thrillers, they really had most genres covered. Most of the books here ... and they claim tens of thousands of books ... are used, and are generally on consignment from somebody. So quality varies, and you might find two copies of something in very different conditions and at matching price points. That being said, the selection was exceptional and well worth investigating. The Book Rack had an especially large selection of kids books ... which was great for us. The only downside of some of these large holdings is that they aren't all classified and organized. Sometimes a certain genre will just be stacked in crates or boxes ... but don't let that dissuade you. There are treasures to be found here. If you like books and enjoy the hunt, this place is for you. Recommended.

I brought two books on house plants and planting in containers. I couldn't find any pies making or pound cakes baking books that were on my list but I emailed them to today to ask if any of these are available. They replied right away. Even though they didn't have the books I wanted. The customer service was great. They're willing to reserve these books if those come in. The cost of all the used books can be $5 to $8 which is great.. And if you follow them on Instagram. There's specials sometime. Go check them out
