The Book Worm is a local bookstore that features a large selection of used books, local books, and one feature that most bookstores don't have -- a cat!! I had been doing business with the Book Worm for several months when one day I came in to find the owners had rescued a cat from behind their dumpster. As a cat lover myself, I was quite pleased to meet this white fella named Casper. Most of the customers who come to the store ask first where Casper is, then do their shopping. This store provides comfortable chairs to sit down in with Casper, but many patrons plop down on the floor to read their selections. The store offers in store credit or cash for books that are traded, as well as an incentive card where a customer can earn a book bag after $100 of purchases. I have heard that the store is expanding soon, which speaks well of the owners. If you are looking for a business that is both local and very friendly, this is your place.
