This is, by far, the best book shop I have ever been to. It has a large selection of well cared for and curated used books for every topic and genre, as well a number of curiosities for sale that cannot be found anywhere else. Everything is fairly priced, and Ive often found books for a fraction of the cost a used copy might cost me to buy online.All in all, it is a joy each time I visit, and I never leave without a new book or candle that I couldnt be more pleased about. I highly recommend Ye Olde Bookshoppe, and encourage anyone whos never been to drop by some time and take a look!

Beautiful downtown charm. Wide selection of books, crafts, knick knacks and keepsakes. Absolutely love the owner and her helper Payton...they are so generous and caring about their customers and their community. We are so blessed to have a Bookshoppe that involves the Arts, Theaters and gives back to our Valley. I suggest going in and checking them out, buying gift certs, a classic or a new read.

A cute little place for used books. Its bigger than it looks, but they didnt have what I wanted, so I was a bit disappointed. But still, she also sells cute bags and earrings and other things, and the store itself is really cozy, so Ill definitely busy again.

Wonderful spot to drop in to peruse their large selection of subjects, or even just for a friendly conversation and book recommendations! Also features a large amount of work and products from local artists and creators, from jewelry to art to stickers to all sorts of hand-made gifts!

What a used bookstore should be, wide assortment of titles; unique, quirky space; good prices; helpful staff.

Folks, let me tell ya, this is one of the best gosh darn tootin bookstores west of the Mississippi. I have been to many bookshops around the globe and many of them have been plagued by an infestation of bookworms. Bookworms can be detrimental to any local bookstore, wreaking havoc by tunneling through the books and creating numerous holes much like worms that find homes in apples. Never to worry though, the Ye Olde Bookshoppe has managed to avoid this issue and I can tell you with confidence that any book you purchase from this establishment will not contain a single worm.

When I first moved here, this place was called Read It Again Books. Then it became Amandas Bookstore. Afterwards it was Wenatchee Book Co. But Ye Olde Bookshoppe is, by far, the best version of this bookstore, and all the more appreciated since Hastings closed down. Ye Olde Bookshoppe has a very broad selection of books at great prices that cannot be beat ANYWHERE in Wenatchee, Cashmere, Leavenworth, or Chelan. If you live here or are visiting the area, I highly recommend this place.

We are so fortunate to have AnaMaree and the Wenatchee Bookstore in our community. If she doesnt have the book in her amazing inventory, she will order it for you. Her shop is a community gathering place of artists, healers, professionals, writers, poets, where you always leave making a friend. It is a time capsule where you lose time browsing the large variety of inventory in her many rooms, and exploring the various art, jewelry, and crafts displayed by local artists. It is much more than a bookstore. It is must see on your visit to Wenatchee. Be sure to pick up a brochure to see what activities will be going on.

If you could take the standard image of used book store straight out of your mind and turn it into an actual place, this would be it. What appears to be a *tiny* little storefront down a side street opens into a veritable warren of rooms once inside, the extent of the place is really quite amazing. They have a great selection, my personal favourite room is the WWII history / Fantasy / SciFi area, its like they took all my favourite books and stacked them in one spot for my reading convenience! Definitely worth the stop, you will be quite amazed at the variety of literature available, and the owner is really friendly and personable. If you are downtown on the Ave, dont miss this little gem! Be aware, the only advertizing for it is a window sign in the front and a couple of sandwich boards (theyre working on getting new ones) so youll have to keep an eye open the first time you go down that way. But its totally worth the effort!
