I took my Great Granddaughter to buy her some books. She is 5 and just learning to read. We found books and puzzles we now enjoy. Its a pleasant little place with very nice employees and great prices. We will be returning soon.

Nice place. Friendly staff. Cant give a positive review. As a Jewish man whose family came to America to escape death, the fact that there is a copy of Mein Kamf prominently displayed, I wont give a good review or recommendation. Too bad, this store has a lot to offer.

I love this bookstore! Its where I get most of my books because they have an excellent and expansive selection. They carry new and old books, DVDs, and CDs. You can shop in the store or online. You can ask them to keep an eye out for a book you want and they call you when it arrives! It is a great set-up!

Fantastic selections. I was told that it’s better to shop online if you want something specific. They have lots of books in storage for purchase. Very reasonable prices, too. If you’re a book lover, you should stop by and have a look!

I upped my original review, as it wasnt truly fair. I judge all used bookstores by this little tiny shop on Court Street in Brooklyn from the mid 1990s. A grumpy bearded dude, multiple books, a dozen cats and full of surprises. I once found a copy of Gustav Stanfords The Short Timers there, for example. The Friends of the Library service was excellent, the book selection was generous and I am an unfair judge. Highly recommended

They have a great collection of donated books, including childrens titles. They have windows and doors open fully to let fresh air in - important to limit covid transmission. Good place to browse and spend a couple hours.

This is such a cool shop.I wish they opened a little earlier, because every time I was in the area. It was between 8-10am. Once we finally were able to get in and check it out my son loved it. Kid naps at 11 so I always do my errands between 7-10 lol.I think if they had a little more area for kids books an had them displayed more. It would def make finding a book easy.But overall I loved it. My child carried his own books to the counter and paid.Great price for books. Great location. Friendly staff.Can’t wait to go back an get some more books!

Im so happy to have a bookstore so close to me, plus it benefits the library. They have a good variety of books. There are also games, jigsaw puzzles(!), DVDs and CDs. Since the items are used, you never know what youll find. So visit often! Its well ventilated (lots of open windows) and people are masked.

By some fluke I stumbled upon this great little store while en route to Five Brothers for lunch. The books, CDs and videos are sold for about 20% of the cover or list price, are invariably in great condition and they also have an expanded selection on line. I must admit that between this plague and the dreck on tv Id rather settle in with a stack of good mysteries...and this store has a good selection. If youre in the area stop by, the friendly staff are always willing to help and make suggestions.
