Looks can be deceiving, and that’s definitely the case with Book Rack. From the outside, the bookstore doesn’t look very big. However, it actually houses one of the largest selections of used books in the state. Nearly as impressive as the quantity are the prices – all of the books are half price or less! Take a look:

This is Book Rack. Pretty hard to miss with its bright orange awning, it’s located in the Canton Mart Square shopping center in Jackson.

The massive selection may seem overwhelming, but don’t worry. The books are neatly organized and divided into sections, which are clearly labeled, making it easy to find exactly what you’re looking for.

Though impressive, quantity isn’t all Book Rack has going for it.

The shop is also known for its incredible prices, which are usually about 50% lower than retailers’ prices. And in some cases, the books are even more than 50% off.

You can do more than buy books at Book Rack, though. You can also trade in your old books for store credit.
