Things to do on Avenue A weekend nights that don't involve bars

Browse through the used book selection at Mast, 66 Avenue A between East Fifth Street and East Fourth Street...

Early word on Mast

The used book store opened yesterday on Avenue A between Fifth Street and Fourth Street...



And the store is not called (regretfully?) THINGS WITH WORDS AND PICTURES IN THEM THAT ARE NOT GLOWING RECTANGLES or Off Track Books or Better Books Than Those Sold By That Crazy Sassmonster In Front Of The Old Methadone Clinic Down The Street Who Threatened My Girlfriend After She Laughed At His Sea Shell Chandelier...

Anyway, people who shopped here yesterday have good things to say...
EV Grieve reader BaHa said, "Not just art and photography, good selection of fiction. Picked up an Edith Wharton I had wanted for 30% off cover. Nice people, too."

And from another reader:

I bought an hp lovecraft book and "all the pretty horses." They were around $6 each. Curated I think in this case means "classics" or well known or essential reading. Which is kind of nice as long as they have more of a more recently published selection. I asked them what the store was called and they said "mast."
