I like Mathom House because it is well stocked. I like to read Westerns, and they have a good collection. Also, I like to trade in my old books to get store credit for MORE books! Mathom House is near the 5 freeway at Pico in San Clemente, so it's easy to stop in on my way home from work. They are by the 99 cent store, so I can stop in there too. Also, Bill the Owner is a decent fellow, and he knows alot about books, so its fun to chat with him. Ask him where he got the name "Mathom House", since that isn't his last name.
