Our Take
The 'crannies' aren't just a name — this used bookstore leans fully into its nook-and-corner personality with shelves that reward slow browsing. With only a handful of reviews to go on, it's a spot worth investigating if you're already in the neighborhood, but the jury is still out on consistency.
