When it comes to shopping for gifts, books can be an easy give. Around Manhattan, there are three places to grab a wide selection of new and used adult and children’s books.
The Dusty Bookshelf
The bookstore in Aggieville features a wide selection of new and used books. People with excess books can donate or sell used books to the store for store credit. There is also a children’s section for kids of all ages, and the store also sells coffee for those hoping to snag a table and work on their laptops during the day.
Books-A-Million
The chain bookstore is open in the Manhattan Town Center mall, and is open when the mall is open. The bookstore features new releases, so finding the newest bestseller is a breeze. The shop also sells children’s toys, and book accessories, like book lights and bookmarks.
Claflin Books
A curated selection of new children and adult reads in Downtown Manhattan. The books are hand-selected by staff, with only a limited number on hand. The store is open Wednesdays through Saturdays for the general public, but readers wanting books sooner can call ahead for a shopping appointment.
