We were impressed with the variety and curation; often used bookstores have a lot of crippy crap but these shelves were filled with great options. The space was cozy and had three levels to peruse. Most of the used books we picked up were $8-12 for paperback and $12-20 for hardback. The shopkeeper was so kind and also gave us a tote for our purchases. Hopefully we can wander the aisles again soon.

I was looking for a good used book store since moving to town and I loved it at Ophelia's Books! I thought it was very cozy, organized, and it contains a great selection of books with great prices! They have 3 floors of books which I was not expecting since it looks small from the outside. Employees are very helpful too if there's something specific you are looking for!

I loved this bookstore!! The books are all used books which I love (sustainable!). It is also incredibly ORGANIZED, which does wonders when looking in a used bookstore. Most of the ones I've been to it's hard to find books when they are all mixed together. They have an upstairs kids section AND a downstairs room with sci-fi and more. They also had a nice collection of books of interest like photography, art books, graphic novels, and many vintage books. There's a lot to love packed into this place. PLUS the price was good! (for used books).

I love stumbling into bookshops and this was a fun place to explore.Ophelia's Books is located in the Fremont neighborhood of Seattle. With three floors of books, one can find themselves spending a ton of time exploring here. Books are well organized and decently priced.Really loved the spiral staircase that leads to the basement. Cozy, independent bookshops like these will always hold a special place in my heart.5/5.

This is my favorite bookstore in Washington. The woman who runs it is so friendly and kind! The shop itself is cozy and feels like a hidden gem. It's a hipster book-lover's dream. The prices are good, too. Highly recommend checking this place out.

What an adorable little bookstore! It's a lot bigger than it looks from the outside! There's a basement and an upstairs little area as well! They have both used and new books at reasonable prices and so many cute little things here and there to browse. Would definitely come back again to browse their selection of books!

Super cute store! Popped in while waiting on the bus. They have a decent selection relative to what I expected looking at the outside. There's a loft and a basement area and they maximize the space. Helpful and kind staff - I plan to come back some time to browse more thoroughly. Seemed reasonable in price for used and new options.
