This is a review of just the VINYL RECORD selection at Bookworks...The record collection here is very nice, particularly the classical and jazz sections. It is not the largest selection of records, but it is very well curated, so although they might not have as many records as shops like Dusty Groove or …

Cozy bookshop packed to the ceiling with all manner of finds. Friendly and helpful cashier up front, just a 5min walk from the Red line station. I was there for the cookbooks, and they had an awesome selection, all extremely reasonably priced. I scored an early Rick Bayless in great shape for $7. Will definitely be back again when we're in town.

Great Stuff

The only store where I could find a copy of '100 Years of Solitude" on the rack. I thought it was a classic? I guess Bookworks thought so too. Wound up with four other titles. Great prices.
Parking lot in back was jammed up and it may be tough to find a street spot in this Wrigleyville locale.
Been meaning to get here for years, sorry I waited.

Great used book store

Not great if you are looking for a specific book, but wonderful for spending an afternoon browsing the stacks. All books are in good or excellent condition and the price is half or less than the suggested retail.
