We love books! And of course, all who love them as well. Get more... We like to buy, sell and trade books at fair prices! We are independently owned and operated and have been open to the public for 15 years. Top Shelf Books is located at 47 E. Northwest Hwy in Palatine, IL. 847-705-9940 www.topshelfbooks.org
Our store is jamm packed with tons of great reading material! Combine the reasonable prices and relaxed atmosphere, and its the perfect place to hang out. You just might find that book that you were never looking for, but realize now that you have always needed!
