Biblio, online bookseller
Asheville is home to one of the largest online booksellers in the country, Biblio, and they are staunch defenders of the local bookstore. We like that. We also like that they offer some great prices for saving on textbooks, from elementary school all the way through college. Just think of all the time I could have saved waiting in bookstore lines if they had been around 20 years ago! Used Textbooks at Biblio. We like them.
The Greenhouse
Looking for a fantastic place to stay in Black Mountain that is walking distance to downtown? Dan’s parents, Lee and Big Dan (who are new grandparents) bought this house to see their grandson more often and they rent it out during the year when they aren’t here. Have a look at The Greenhouse.
