Ancestor Explorer: This was a great little bookstore. Books from the ceiling to the floor. There are a lot of genres and much to choose from. The books were not all priced, and there were several out of place and still in boxes on the floor. I found a few books I liked that were reasonably priced. But there were several that were overpriced, and that left me a little sour. Overall, it was a good experience, but the store needs to be organized better, shelves labeled, and proces clearly marked.

N B: If you're a bibliophile, you will LOVE this place. First time going here, it may take you an extra second or two to find the door; Its kind of hidden. Already fun! When you get inside, you will see books EVERYWHERE... Its so amazing!For the most part, the books are categorized. But there are also tons of books just stacked wherever there is room to spare. This place definitely has a lot of great books. Then you get to the last room before you've come full-circle.This room has REALLY old books in it. 1700s at least. Its just neat even being in there. The whole place is just exactly how you'd imagine a fun, cozy old bookstore would be, cobwebs and dust included.If you're more of a barnes and noble book store shopper, this one may not be for you. The prices here are comparable to what you'd find on Ebay, maybe a little less. If you love treasure hunting and books, this will become your new favorite shop in Kansas City!
