    Really nice people. And you can actually browse real books, with pages and covers and all the rest that Gutenberg had in mind. When you buy, ask for a book card so you can earn a discount in future

    Buy ten books, get one at average value free. Join the frequent reader club. Card works at other outlets.

    Books Inc features a great magazine section but an unfortunate selection of Metaphysical books. Shop Borders for more choices on astrology, tarot and such.
