Adorable little book shop! Great selection of books, greeting cards, and small gifts. Definitely worth a stop when out shopping in the area!
Jennifer
Sweet little bookstore that carries a really nice selection of children's books and gifts and then some nice books for adults here. Everything they offer is well curated too. Plus they have a small stock of cards, stationery, coloring books and home decorations.
Erick
A cozy neighborhood bookstore with thoughtful and trending new titles, covering urban/NYC/progressive themes. Signed copies and first editions of some titles are usually available. It's a small but well curated (not overwhelming) selection, including a nice children's section in the back with a reading table and seats. A perfect stop for a meaningful birthday gift (gift wrapping is available) or just to spend some reading time with the family. Support local storefronts!
