18 Miles of Books
![]() |
Strand |
Address
828 Broadway
(at 12th St.)
New York, NY. 10003-4805

This amazing bookstore has many levels to it, on every level is such a vast/wide selection of books from very old collectibles to very new ARC's (YES, you read it right!) They have a pretty big selection of ARC's. And they are practically giving them away. I just got lost in the basement, I have never seen such cool, old books. I was in heaven. If I had to guess, I would say it is FIVE TIMES BIGGER than any B&N or Borders. I haven't even started on the YA section... IT. IS. AMAZING!!! Not only can you buy a brand new book fresh on the shelf for way cheaper than Borders or B&N, but you can buy a previously read copy for about five bucks .

First Place - First choice of four books!
Second Place - Second choice of three books!
Third Place - Third choice of two books!
Fourth Place - Fourth choice of one book!

I've been going to The Strand every year for about 6 years now. It is one of my favorite bookstores in the US :). I went this summer when I was in NYC and I searched high and low for the fabled ARC section. Didn't find it. And I admit I was too shy to ask :#! Anywho, I still loved it :D!
ReplyDeleteKudos on your anniversary and I'm glad you enjoyed your trip :)!
xoxoxo,

Wow you have some great books! thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI'd like living there. It's incredible the bookstores so huge there are!! I like all the books. Once I was in Dublin and I went inside a bookstore, I don't remember the name, and I got excited. so many books!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, this store sounds like heaven! Unfortunately I'm living in Europe, no chance to go there next time:(
ReplyDeleteI am so into this contest! GREAT! Love your prize choices. I want to read Hex Hall, Infinite Days and Before I fall so bady. Make me the 3 books winner, haha:D
Happy Anniversary. Sounds like a wonderful bookstore. Thanks for the giveaway.

ReplyDeleteNow I'm interested to see Remember Me...and I have to say I think Rob looks much better without all the pale vamp makeup. lol
Thanks for the awesome giveaway :D Do I come back and link my tweet everyday? Just wondering :)
ReplyDeleteActually, I'd LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE (did I say LOVE?) to go to The Strand, but winning stuff from there would DEFINITELY be the next best thing. Thank you for the chance...and happy reading! ^_^

ReplyDeleteWow. I SO want to visit there! Why don't they have a bookstore like that in Australia?? Thanks so much for the awesome giveaway and making me incredibly jealous of everyone living in New York. Happy 18th anniversary! Hope it was amazing :)
ReplyDeleteHave to tell you again how much I love this giveaway, your giveaways in general and of course this piece of heaven in form of a bookstore!:)

ReplyDeleteThat bookstore sounds amazing. it would be awesome to be able to go to NYC just to see it.
ReplyDeleteOk...So I have lived in NYC for almost SIX YEARS and never knew that bookstore existed. Clearly I need to get out more.
ReplyDeleteWow, awesome giveaway! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the giveaway!
ReplyDeleteUSA is such a heaven for book-lovers!!!
ReplyDeleteI can only order used books online and the shipping cost is way more than books' price. Wish I could come there someday :)
I'm soooo jealous!!! I want the same bookstore here in my little french town!!! With Tyler if it's possible haha =p
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for the contest!
I've always heard such good things about this store but have never been lucky enough to go to NY City. Someday though... *sigh*
