Normal's Book & Records

Always satisfied. When I felt tired I often visit this sanctuary. It heals me and cure me and sooth me. Like gentle winds. And the price is very cool! Highly recommend, if you are reader and listener. Never disappointed.

An absolutely Baltimore institution: New and quality used books and vinyl records, as well as some CD's and choice video discs, cassette tapes, and current alternative to underground magazines, zines, etc. generally well reasonably priced.

Great selection -- and for some reason I didn't get the anxiety or overwhelm I sometimes have in record stores; I think it might have been because it is a book store as well. I talked to one of the nine original owners who was friendly and gave me nice suggestions on music venues nearby.

My wife and I enjoyed our visit here. This store curates their pretty wide collection carefully to have something that will fit every taste or book seeker. There are some first editions and collectors' books here as well as books in a price range more friendly to the used book deal finders.
