Curmudgeon Book Store 7900 Ritchie Highway, Glen Burnie, MD 21061

"Independent book store. Lots of unusual things so you can always find something different. Everything that is used is in good condition, but they also have lots of new things. In the old Marley Station Mall."

"Store seems to be stuck in the 80's/90's when it comes to their book content. It's like they think they are too good for a horror and romance section. The horror books were mixed in the the Sci Fi/Fantasy and the romance section? HA! It's a tiny Ikea KALLAX unit. The "popular fiction" section was ridiculous. It's almost like they don't keep up with ANY trends. Horror and Romance are a big ticket item right now. It's sad to see another store that drowns itself in only big name authors that don't resell well as the market is saturated in their books and can be found at Goodwill for $1 or less. The store had a very nice atmosphere but they need to update their antiquated ways."

"Just a very interesting and unique bookstore. Has a lot of rare finds if you take the time to search. Has a robust collection of comics, vinyl records, DVD, toys etc. Great experience just wandering the isles and looking at the displays, we love getting our books from here. Also a great area inside the mall, right outside the bookstore that you can just sit to read or work on the computer. Very peaceful and relaxing."

"This place is a “destination bookstore.” I go out of my way to come here when traveling from Baltimore. This place might not (and likely won’t) have all the titles on your list. However, you’re guaranteed to find many great surprises here. This place is like a Barnes & Noble with super-low prices. I’ve also found the staff to be helpful when needed. Also, the 1980’s throwback mall that looks like it’s straight out of Stranger Things is an added bonus!"

"I was excited to see what appeared to be a robust sci-fi, fantasy, and comics section right at the front of the store. They have some unique sections like their rare books and stamps. Overall, they have a wide range of sections, but the sections aren’t very deep and a lot of popular books. It was nice to browse, but I would go somewhere else for active book buying trips."
