Under Charlie's Covers News

Like us on Facebook and take 50% off all hardback books. One time only!

We will be closed on Monday, May 27th for Memorial Day!




IMPORTANT CHANGES: We are open 7 days a week! Mon-Sat, 10-6 and Sun 11-5. We have also increased our trade fee to 50 cents a book. If you have trade credit from before 2/1/12, you will continue to pay 25 cents until you use it up. While we love your trade books, due to our rapid rise in inventory, we can only process one box of trade-ins at a time. Please come down and browse our stacks for lots of exciting new books to choose from.

Attention sci-fi/fantasy lovers: We have been opening many boxes of vintage 1950s and 1960s book club hardbacks and paperbacks. The cover art is awesome and so are the prices!
