Very cool bookstore with a well-curated collection. Guy who runs it knows his books. I always find something good in there at a reasonable price. Closed on Mondays.

Love this place! The owner is very down to earth and is always willing to trade good books for credit towards future purchases which is badass. The selection of esoteric and new age type books always has a bunch of gems and the prices are always a steal in my experience. And the location couldn't be more convenient. It earns a spot on my list of the top 3 used book stores in Denver for sure.

Super friendly and cozy little book shop. It’s small so there is a limited, but unique selection. They even give you a pump of hand sanitizer when you come in just in case, so patrons aren’t thumbing through books with dirty hands...!

This is a remarkable shop, as much an art gallery as a book store. Of course, the store's close association with cartoonist Noah Van Sciver helps. Regardless, this is clearly a special place. It presents visitors with a unique vision, intriguing and appealing. For a small bookstore, it packs a punch. There are strong selections of used science fiction, general fiction, mysteries, and drama and poetry. (The other sections seem just as good, but I don't know those topics or areas as well...) The collection of hardcovers and trade paperbacks devoted to comics is particularly notable, with many rare and hard-to-find volumes. There's a strong double-shelf of current independent and local comics, along with chapbooks, zines, and other odds and ends. Please note, however, there are no new mainstream comics here. No hold slots for Wednesday Warriors, not to even mention Marvel Zombies. Book collection, yes – the latest issue of X- Men, no. The premises may be snug, but the store offers many delights. There are Kilgore mugs and t-shirts and other paraphernalia, showing that the shop has an active cultural presence, or at least a presence with certain parts of our culture. The stretch of 13th Avenue, from Wax Trax to City O' City, is one of Denver's most Bohemian areas. In my opinion, Kilgore Books is best shop of them all.
