Mine sells every book for a buck, but everytime I looked there was nothing that interested me. No classics, mostly just some third grade crime stories or young-adult fiction crap.

Your neighbors are plebs for not checking these out enough for the library to hang onto them.

One of my local thrift stores always has a lot of great books, and they even manage to organize them to a degree. Its the best bookstore in my city.
