Remember Twice Sold Tales at 7 Mercer St., which closed earlier this summer? We were just contacted by the shop’s new owner, Debbie Sarow, and it looks like there’s a new bookshop is in town.
Mercer Street Books is already open for business, though there’ s been no official kick-off event yet.
“I’ve been here since July 15,” Sarow said. “And there’s a few more projects I wanted to get done before having an official opening, like paining the letters on the front, which is happening today.”
The store is open daily from 12 to 7 p.m., and is holding true to Twice Sold Tales’ credo – it’s chock full of used books! The entire stock is used, Sarow said, and the shop also buys and trades books with the public.
With Abraxus Books at 524 1st Ave N, which moved to Queen Anne from Ballard in June, and now Mercer Street Books, it seems Uptown is reviving the used bookstore scene!

I think you mean “chock” full of used books. Or are they particularly dusty?

Glad to see we haven't lost this book location! I wish it success.
You've been running all over town lately reporting (I think I saw you a couple of days ago photo snapping) … it's appreciated keep up the good work.
Oh, and I used parentheses in the body of my comment, as it falls under the parenthetic guidelines of a personal aside.
And I am an huge ellipsis fan and use them freely and even incorrectly at times. Hallelujah. ;0

I recommend visiting this bookstore and suspect you will become a regular customer. It is clean, tidy, well organized, and light. Has a good feeling to it. Many categories of books and many books within each group to puruse. The books seem to all be in good-excellent condition. Debbie (the owner) is very friendly and readily helpful. I anticipate a successful business at Mercer Street Books. Best wishes!
