BOOKSTORES ARE INTEGRAL TO LOCAL CULTURE This place is fantastic! A great selection of collectable books, comic books, cd's and records. My favorite part is the comic book section, which has some amazing indie comics from the 90's (as well as current issues and more). In the summer the AC is not too great, so if you plan to browse for long, come in the morning or in the evening. I recommend this place to everyone I know.

I was referred by a friend in the early 90s to this Oasis. Life happened for several years but BDFAR remained my Family. So Many Treasures ... PRIMARILY the Staff. Books, Music, Comics, Cards, Novelties .... and True Magic in Real Time If you open yourself to Their Experience.

Quirky place. Minimal ambience but plenty of books. Great selection well organized. Reasonable prices.

Time does not exist in this store. You walk in to browse through comics, or vinyl, or used fiction. It could be 1998, or it could be 2008, or it could be 2024. You just don't know, and it really doesn't matter. What you're looking for is in here somewhere. It always has been and always will be. If you're really lucky they'll be a little dog waiting for you inside.
