The clerk (owner?) was a bit of a prick to me, tracking me down back in the aisles… Mon, 28 Jul 2008 14:20:04 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:Ftho0TZpiuGeaBnrYIc1HQ It feels more like a museum for books than a used bookstore. Everything is in neat order, in their categories, completely precise and concise. They've got fantastic books, especially in their… Tue, 08 Jul 2008 02:25:20 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:SSJ-QGdyjNCphtpJeYS3HA I passed by this place a bunch of times before I ever came in. And even when I came in, I didn't buy anything. Until last week. I had time to kill, so I browsed their selection for a long time.… Sat, 14 Jun 2008 19:07:29 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:ybTNoPTHeclVaZ7uRAUKxg Just went in here for the first time a couple weeks ago. I liked the lay out. I love my crowded and labyrinthine used book shops, this was not one of them, but there was something very comfortable… Tue, 04 Mar 2008 21:38:15 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:DiBukpFc0xqi63xU57-NaA I was on a mission in the Mission the other day (I apologize for the early bad pun). A friend turned me onto Haruki Murakami and now I'm voraciously searching out all he's written. But funds are tight… Sun, 02 Mar 2008 23:42:36 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:Fgqmun-3Y-iVDX8hJKcV4A A good, small, neighborhood bookstore for buying/selling both new and used books, including vintage and out-of-print options. Modest selection, but well laid out with enough space not to feel cramped.… Wed, 13 Feb 2008 21:00:02 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:bIZsjsbIoTY045FmbKBx6A Their selection is kind of limited outside the more "esoteric" areas ... and I don't mean math and chess. Nevertheless, it's very clean, well-lit, and well-organized. There's a nice children's area.… Fri, 07 Dec 2007 15:16:24 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:m49dFm6YxOl0h6zvWMKR8w wonderful oasis of great books and peaceful vibes in the heart of the hectic mission. great selection of books on many topics, esp. if you want the Buddhist words of wisdom, but lots of fiction and… Thu, 11 Oct 2007 14:17:22 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:jMpuPCb3AXxZvN2vuTQX7g Aweful experience my first time in this place. The middle aged guy working there, Jason, kinda talked down to me and TOLD me what to do instead of asked. Maybe that's just his way and tone of voice,… Wed, 19 Sep 2007 13:37:16 PST http://www.yelp.com/biz/forest-books-san-francisco#hrid:PgLjYmEck7gkTnOZ4HKQaw If I go into a book store, rest assured, I am spending money. I can't guarantee how much I will give the proprietor but something is coming outta my wallet and into theirs. That's just the kind of…
