Ohio is an awesome state for book lovers. (Be sure to check out this 32-room bookstore.) If you’re not from the Dayton area, there’s an enormous warehouse you probably don’t know about—and it’s a paradise that book lovers only dream about. Murphy’s Used Books and Media in the suburbs of Dayton is a hidden gem that you could spend the entire day exploring. Take a look:
Editor’s Note: Unfortunately, Murphy’s Used Books and Media closed its doors in 2019. Their Facebook page is still active if you’re a lover of literature memes! If you’re looking for another incredible Ohio business where you can pick up a book, swing by The Book Loft in Columbus.
Murphy’s Used Books is located at 2852 Wilmington Pike, Dayton, OH 45419. Have you ever been here before? If so, we want to know what your experience was like!
