This store is TINY. But it's so cozy, I walk in every time I pass by here. They've got great selections of used books (and the smell of them is intoxicating) and excellent used records (33.3 speed) for less than one dollor. I think it's 3 for $1! How can you beat that price? Though as I recall, the records in the back (Stones, Beatles, and the like) are more expensive.

Despite the imposing threat of multiple Barnes and Nobles just down the street, Westsider soldiers on. Popular with local music students, UWS locals, and people getting ice cream next door (at the Broadway/80th location) Highlights include: - an extensive and authentic music collection. Yes! You can buy vinyl here. - the cheap used book carts groaning under the weight outside. Find your long-lost copy of Catcher in the Rye or a much-thumbed pulp novel. Or a boring old textbook. - the decidedly non-chain atmosphere This could be the real-life, less rosily-lit and spacious manifestation of Kathleen's shop in You've Got Mail. Take your purchases a few blocks away to read over dessert in Cafe Lalo (the cafe from the movie) and you've had an authentic UWS evening.
