FREE CONTENT: For $1.50 books, head to Dollar Book Swap in Dayton
I love buying used books, so naturally this story grabbed my attention like it may be grabbing yours right now. Kailey Bree writes that “The Dollar Book Swap is a thriving community space dedicated to the shared passion of reading, knowledge and lifelong learning.” She has great photos and information you need to know about this family run business here, describing the location as “a sprawling warehouse filled to the brim with books that only cost $1.50 each.” Consider me intrigued, as I plan a trip there myself.
