Capitol Hill Books

Minimal organization , maximum snarkiness. I can't wait to come back to explore all the owners random comments peppered on the shelves. A chronic book reader's dream used bookstore .

Wonderful bookstore with plenty of charm. Smells like old books and glue with things in every nook and cranny. Has its own organization but might take a couple visits to appreciate it.

This is a place you have to see to believe. Books piled anywhere and everywhere. I especially love the quirky and clever labels (e.g. a pile on the floor labeled , "George Washington rests here").

Worth a stop just to see the insanely tall piles of books and labels . A bit overwhelming, honestly.

This place is a fire hazard. Books stacked to the ceiling , even in the bathrooms . But, there's a good selection, and sometimes, tequila from plastic bottles.

Excellent titles and witty labels . Worth stopping in just to look. Truly an original bookshop

This place oozes charm. From the oodles piles of paperbacks almost neatly lining the walls to the elderly cashier this place will not be soon forgotten. Your tab is also calculated by hand.

Amazing books and tips from the owner. Fun for a day off.

Floor to ceiling books . Quirky labels . Vintage everything else. This is a quintessential bookstore .

This place is as magical as harry potter's world -- can you find books you are looking for? Friendly staffs too

Smells good. Don't bring backpacks else you have to leave them at the front desk. Explore every room and floor.

This is the best used bookstore in the District -- huge selection, good prices.

Wall to wall to wall with books . The owner buys his merchandise from auctions... that sell dead people's stuff. Spooky. But neat.

For a delightful surprise, be sure to open the cabinets in the kitchen and bathrooms .

Books , books , books , books .

Games! ???? ???? ???? ♟

Densely packed with good stuff, if you can get past the curmudgeonly owner.

So many books , so little time.
