The quick read
Your kind of place?
Go if
you love the hunt, if you are a teacher, or if you want a bookshop that feels like wandering through somebody's personal collection rather than shopping.
Go elsewhere if
you need a cafe, easy parking, wide aisles, or air conditioning in August.
The complete review, raw reviewer words and all twenty scores live there.
