From the outside, Books of Interest didn't look especially promising--but step inside and it's a well-stocked, welcoming bookstore with an owner who is just a lovely human and a true bibliophile. Human interaction 10/10. Thank you, Leo! I only had a couple hours to browse, but already looking forward to my next visit. Hot Tip: Their selection of art books and New Mexico interest/history is well curated.

I really enjoyed this book store. I could tell the books are selected carefully and there is a personal touch. I bought several very interesting books and the prices are reasonable. The owner Leo is very friendly and helpful and he shared his story with me about starting his business which was inspiring. I will definitely be back. Thank you!

Love this book store and love chatting with the owner just a great guy who you could tell what you were looking for and he would point you in the right direction. They have a wonderful southwestern rock art and ruin collection. Also lots of great art books in general. You could very easily spend a couple hours here just browsing. if you need a non outdoor activity it's a wonderful way to spend some time with fairly easy access and parking in the front.

While passing through town, we noticed this business because we found the name of the store amusing! Happened to then look it up on Yelp and found the strong reviews, so the next day, we stopped by and unexpectedly dropped nearly $300 on used books (and had to restrain ourselves to even get it to that amount). Fabulous inventory, very well curated. Not a lot of schlock. Heavy on art, design, architecture and regional history. Everything I picked up was VG+ to Like New quality -- the owner is selling quality books. He also has a lot of out of print books, so it's also quite fun to browse.

I love used bookstores, and this one is one of the better ones I've been to. It's well organized and reasonably priced. The owner was friendly as well.Others have mentioned the fact that the stock leans towards art books. This is true, and I suppose it's because of the location. However, I would have liked to see more literature/poetry.

Very nice bookstore with a focus on art (surprise surpise). The locale is a converted house and is bright and cheery. There is ample parking in back. The inventory selection skill of the owner is excellent and prices are reasonable. It's heavy on the cookbooks, but that may be acceptable for Santa Fe.I do not collect art books. Thank god or I would have spent $2500 and had to rent a truck. If you are looking for art books this shop is an excellent resource. In fact, the art collection was so good I had to deliberately ignore it, lest I ended up buying to the exclusion of subjects in which I have more interest.There is a small, but interesting collection of music CDs oddly layed out flat on a table in the foyer. Way too much jazz for my taste, but considering the density of unrefined bohemians in the environs it is understandable.The owner is facile with mail order and he sent my books to me very well packed.
