BookBuyers Books
About
BookBuyers Books, on Hawaii (Big Island), sits at 14 Waianuenue Ave, Hilo, HI 96720, United States, in the town's central grid rather than out on the coast. First-time visitors should expect a bookshop with a used and secondhand character, the sort of place where browsing takes longer than planned. The schedule is compact: Tuesday through Saturday, 10:00-17:00, with Sunday and Monday closed.
A 4.7 out of 5 average from 173 reviews places it among the better-regarded stops in Hilo. The shop's website, http://bigislandbookbuyers.com/, carries its identity and current information. Reaching it from the main resorts means driving across the island, since Kailua-Kona, Waimea, the Kohala Coast and Captain Cook lie on the western side, while Hilo, Volcano and Puna are closer. The nearby places that frame a visit also include Kona.
Hilo occupies the windward side of the island, where trade winds from the northeast deliver most of the rain, so a wet afternoon is a common reason to step indoors. The town's position makes it a natural stop for anyone crossing from the Kona coast.
English and Hawaiian are both official languages, and Hawaiian words appear widely in place names, which is worth knowing when reading street signs. Lei garlands made from flowers or shells are given to mark greetings, birthdays and graduations, a custom visitors often encounter. The islands themselves are volcanic in origin, formed as the Pacific Plate moved over a hotspot.
