Rabbit Hole Books

Absolutely delightful bookstore! Stopped by because it was within walking distance of our hotel and we love visiting used bookstores wherever we travel. Plus we happen to love rabbits. This bookstore was one of our favorites of all time! All the books were a dollar and they have a wonderful selection. The spouse has a large library plus we regularly stock over a dozen Little Free Libraries near our home, so it was like hitting the jackpot when we entered. We bought so many books we had to come back with the car because we couldn’t carry the two boxes full all the way back to the hotel near the stadium in almost 100° heat. The store is very welcoming with bright colors and lots of seating. And they have teacups for sale! (Very Alice in Wonderland!) Some cute gifts, too. I bought a nice brooch and a metal ornament.

This book store is pure perfection! Bargain prices, well located, beautiful decor, friendly staff, all the books are $1 each!!! isn't that amazing? They have a kids' corner, with small couches to sit, small chairs, and tables. Tons of kids' books. There is a notebook and "rock crayons" area where kids can hang out while you shop. By the way, the quality of these crayons is amazing, and the perfect size for toddlers and bigger kids too. I took some pictures of my kids while checking out some books, and they turned out beautiful. I guess if you ask for permission from the owners, this place would be amazing for a photo shoot session. This store is that charming. Even if you are not looking for a book, but for a gift instead, I highly recommend this place. The store is full of original and unique products such as cards, jewerly, scarves, pins, stickers, decorative pillows, mugs, candies, notebooks, ornaments, stuffed animals, toys, house decor for all styles and ages. I could stay here forever!!

Added Rabbit Hole Books to Google Maps. 🙂 So glad I got to visit The Dayton Book Fairs shop their second day of being open! All the books in the store are one dollar each and the staff is very friendly. The location is accessible and the store is tidy. Great soundtrack too. The store is growing as well, soon there will be an ice cream (and more) store right near it! Very excited to keep coming back and happy to say I found some great affordable books. Thank you!

My partner described this place as having "the best books money could buy... in 1985". To their credit the people who run this place know that what they sell (all donated) is worthless, so they only charge $1 a book. It's a tiny place, which made it a bit awkward with other customers. There are some chairs - God knows why -and there was a customer reading, which effectively blocked off an entire wall. I guess he couldn't commit to the $1. I'm a serious reader and even I would say this place is only worth a visit if you are in the area anyway, which you won't be, because it isn't near anything else of any interest whatsoever. The cashier was (appropriately enough) reading, but even though they greeted everyone who entered in a perfunctory manner, I got the impression they would rather have not been bothered. I can't say I felt welcome. Street parking is free on weekends. Weekdays, don't bother. It's not worth paying to park.

This is an adorable little shop within walking distance of metered parking. Every book is $1, the staff is very friendly, and there is SO much more than just books! History and book-themed trinkets and collectibles can be found throughout the store. Although the shop isn't massive, their collection is so immense you could probably spend hours in there and not see everything. We visited from Cincinnati after shopping at the Monroe Premium Outlets. Highly recommend!

This is a cool little shop. All books are $1. With that being said, you likely won't find the most desirable books as they are all donated. I still found a good stack to take home and read

Wonderful little second hand book store. Every book was a dollar! Also has really neat little handmade items that were priced reasonably.
