I always stop by this bookstore when I am in New York. This is a great place to replenish your stock of current general fiction and non fiction. The problem with the bookstore is that it does not have a great selection of more academic books. This is not the place to pick up books for your dissertation. The Strand also has a section downstairs that sells reviewers copies for a cheap price. There are two locations and they have a website if you can't make it in to the city.
