Wish there were more miscellaneous items! Perhaps items from local artists, besides stickers and sticky notes. But lovely atmosphere, super cute decor, staff were very welcoming.

Cute store, a little hard to navigate since all of the contemporary romance is just alphabetized. Smaller than expected & a lot of staff behind the front desk but they were not all that friendly. Overall if you want to pick up a romance book at a cute shop in Brooklyn this is a good stop.

Definitely a place to visit at least once in a lifetime for a bookworm. Post-ironically perfect spot for an emotional trip. You can wander around it and with a grain of luck you may find a book about yourself.Great for gift hunting and their totes design is incredible.
