Welcome, book lovers! 
 

Established in 1991, our store has an ever-changing collection of used, rare & out-of-print books on two floors. You can find everything from paperback Mysteries to SIGNED First Editions, Leather bound books, Scholarly Non-Fiction, Cookbooks, Children's Books & much more. We're located in downtown Lincoln - just a few blocks from the University of Nebraska's City Campus.
                                         
Come explore our labyrinth of books! Our staff is friendly, knowledgeable and can help you find books you'll love. Padric & Eddy, our feline staff, are likely to be lounging on the rugs or sleeping in the windows. Pictured above: Eddy, Cinnamon Dokken (owner) & Katherine Bergstrom (manager).

Current news: 5/14/13: This week, we acquired a SIGNED first edition of Barbara Kingsolver's Animal, Vegetable, Miracle. We also have SIGNED books by Jeff Corwin, Dorothy Allison & Jim Butcher. Tomorrow, Katherine & I are going on a book hunt - into a garage - for some vintage Science Fiction books. Cross your fingers!

We are pleased to announce that while staffer Rebekka is interning at the Kennedy Center this summer, Matthew Eggert will be filling in. Matthew has worked for us for many years - with a hiatus to Seattle in the middle. He is back for what we're calling his 'third tour of duty'! Expect to see him next week. Isabel, my 10 year-old daughter, will also be helping out as a junior staff member this summer - you'll see her when school's out!

Book Signing: Gaynell Gavin, author of Attorney at Large

Sunday, June 2nd
1:30pm - 3:00pm

In this novella, the protagonist fails against a legal system that give short shrift to women, children and minorities. Emotionally authentic & darkly funny.
