Great Bookstore
by agaylor at Citysearch
I've had such great experiences going to Wallace Books. No matter who is working I always feel welcome. They are happy to help me pick out book for gifts (only if I want help), and my niece and nephew have loved their recommendations. The atmosphere is cozy and they have new and used books. I love the relaxed vibe and that the staff knows their books!
- Pros: Staff, Selection, Location
- Cons: What are the drawbacks?

For years now, I have asked Julie Wallace to select books as gifts for my grandchildren. The books have always been well received and recently my 15 year old granddaughter responded that the book I sent is now her new most favorite. And even though I have a "to read" stack of books at home, it is difficult to leave the store without making another purchase.
Amazing service, inventory and atmosphere!

Since it opened in about 1997 - Wallce Books has captured my heart and imagination. I have referred many readers and book store aficianados over the years who thank me repeatedly! Julie Wallace and her team are enthusiastic, in the know about the latest, and willing to go the extra mile to compile book lists, research gifts for a certain age or interest group, etc. I even ordered many of my graduate school titles through them. They are the best independent bookseller i know.
