Reviews

It's a neat place, but it's kind of hard to navigate your way around the store or try to find a specific book. Shelves and sections often have no signs or labels to indicate what kind of books are there. The few labels that do exist are small pieces of paper written in small black ink. The piles of books that sit next to the shelves (one of the things Eclipse is known for) make it even harder to find specific books. You either have to lean really far down and try to read the titles in the book bindings, or go through them one at a time, and you have to be careful where you step or you risk knocking one of the piles over.

If you've ever been to Henderson's Books downtown, it's kind of like that--a maze of shelves, with books lined up to the ceiling. Henderson's felt a little claustrophobic but somehow this place is even more so, possibly because of the book piles taking up floor space.

Price-wise, it's alright. About the same kind of prices you'd find at other used bookstores, and definitely cheaper than Village Books. But honestly, you'd have a much easier time shopping at Henderson's.

My favorite bookstore in town. There's so many books here that they're on the porch and in the floor. If you want to find a book, they'll tell you exactly where to find it. Beware of the books by the register, for they are signed and priced accordingly.

I like it. I think the piles should reduced, but it's a nice place.

Feels like I'm walking into a personal library. Extremely homey

Not a new-age shop. Almost skipped it because I thought it was. This is not a place to be missed if you like used bookstores. About a jillion books of all kinds from assigned-reading nonfiction to genre paperbacks from 60 years ago. A book person will not have seen all of Bham without stopping here.
