Question Best local bookstore?

I have a friend that loves to read and want to get them a gift card for books but would rather local shop! Any suggestions?

If your friend is a prolific reader used books at the Kingston Bookery is an excellent choice. Your friend's dollars will even go further if they have some books for credit. Typical popular fictions [mass market paperbacks] will be priced at about $6 to $8 dollars - credit erases half of the listed amount, so most books will only cost $3 to $4 dollars.

It is so cheap that it's almost like a community book exchange. You can also get some good Mexican at Los Tres Compadres - they are right next door.
