555 Broadway, Dobbs Ferry“Although I m trying to wean myself away from buying books, since I recently acquired a library card, when I do buy one, it is always through Transom. I am a strong believer in supporting local businesses and this particular business is owned and staffed by thoughtful, helpful, knowledgable people. I love that I have an electronic connection with them; I always pay when I order and just wait for their email message.Go Transom!!”

95 Main St, Nyack“Not the best selection, but I always find something to get an a pile to bring home when I get it go to this record store in Rockland County more for the Records not CDs for the record selections. Pretty decent not perfect.”
“While I've never been there, I've only interacted with the store via their website and email, I have to say it is one of the best bookstores I've encountered. They are so friendly and helpful and were able to ship my daughter a book signed and personalized by the author. Thanks for a great experience.”
“I'm not from Teaneck but I have to say I was super impressed about the level of service from the staff just in my case of finding a kippah that fit right. Amazing place.”
“I thought Yonkers was lost cause because I felt that it did not have much... Then I found B & N! I was elated and bought a few items! The only thing is that I am looking for a particular book, but I saw that they have it online... And I became a member...I LOVE BOOKS!”
“Exceptional service!!!!Israel the owner was willing to take my order 3 days before Pessach and go out his way to make sure my order will be delivered to my family in NY. I just can’t thank him enough and can’t believe I found a store that was actually kind enough to listen and help someone on the other side of the world. על זה נאמר אנשים טובים בדרך !השם יברך אותך ישראל!תודה רבה!”
“Great booksigning‼ Loved how they set up the writer in the back so it allowed you privacy to talk with him. He was lovely and so accommodating to be able to take pic with all of us. Store also provided discount for purchases made that night. Overall great experience‼”
“One of the few B & N Kitchen locations. Located inside Barnes & Noble with an outdoor area for the warmer months. Starbucks Cafe attached to the book store and the restaurant, serving coffees, teas and treats. Restaurant menu is on the limited side, but some quality options. They don't do the avocado toast since covid.... wish upon a star that they would bring it back. Alcohol selection is decent.... yes.... they serve alcohol.... at a book store. Good parking, which is free.”
“A Big Thank You To Raven & Kerry!!!I called about a very specific boardgame, online it showed there was one left in stock. I called and spoke with Raven. She was very nice on the phone and took several minutes to look intensely for the boardgame. Unfortunately, she was not able to find it, but said that Kerry would also look for it. Raven asked if Kerry could call me back and I was happy that she went the extra mile to do that for me. Less than an hour later, Kerry called back and was happy to inform me that he found what I was looking for. I was very appreciative. Then he proceeds to help ship the boardgame to me. What wonderful service both Raven and Kerry provided. I am very happy and grateful!”

37 Spencer Pl, Scarsdale“Bronx River Books is a great independent store. Going there is always a pleasant experience. The owners are welcoming and add the personal touch that only indie bookstores have. You will almost always find what you are looking for; if you don't, there is no need to worry. They happily order it for you. Highly recommend this store.”
“Love Womrath's!! They have a small selection, but they are always able to order any book I need! I would recommend going here for books than any other place! Everyone is super nice, especially Barbara, and it's great to support local businesses!”

“Delightful bookstore under the new ownership! The owner and her daughter were so friendly and welcoming, happy to chat away about great books, their cute backpacks and stationary and seeds! It’s a lovely store with a great ambiance. I’m so happy to have another lovely bookstore in Larchmont.”
“Before i start this review, been here before prepandemic before i started writing reviews. Went here on Wednesday April 10th 2024 to check out their entertainment section for any good Cds. Was surprised when i saw that there was a decline of inventory, and not much items there. This is located on the 4th level, and as others said is only 1 level, but it seems like it makes use of its space. I wasn't there to look for books though, but perhaps another time. Looked for a bit in the entertainment section but didn't find anything of interest for a gift. oh well. Hope to be back soon, maybe to check out a book next time!”
“I needed birthday gifts for two young girls and had no idea of what to get for them. I found the Toy Box online and drove up this morning. The woman in the store (sorry, but I never got your name) was extremely helpful and friendly. I was able to get gifts for both and I feel confident that the girls will enjoy them. This will now be my go-to store whenever I need to purchase toys.”

8 S Broadway, Nyack“My husband and j would come here when we were dating, 5 years ago and we've made a trip to come back every year to take the same photo. We love the charm and smell that this book shop has. There's nothing like walking in and looking for a book.”

2400 Palisades Center Dr, West Nyack“I am a local author and I did a book signing at the Barnes and Noble in West Nyack yesterday. The people there were very welcoming and helpful. They helped me get set up and tended to my needs throughout the three hour event.”
“I graduated in January with an MSED in TESOL. I loved my professors and advisors. Everyone in the department was amazing, really supportive. They provide vital assistance and advice with teacher exams, certification, and getting hired. I am only giving 4 stars because there were occasional issues with the registrar, bursar, and other offices that were sometimes disorganized, slow to correct their errors, and generally unhelpful. But in my experience, most schools are like that.”

333 Westchester Ave, White Plains“Ordered my husband some books that had got returned due to nudity and also what the jail considered gang related. The mail room at the jail gave me a hard time. First I called Special Needs and they sent my husband proof of delivery to go along with his grievance and that is when we found out it was returned, i called a couple weeks later and the representative Darin who handles the online orders was great. He was able to find the order and credit my account so I can order immediately. Thank you for assisting me.”
“Every book that I think — oh, I should buy that for my child/partner/neighbor/friend — I see it the next time I’m at Picture Book. Expertly curated, ever-changing, always relevant and unexpected. A great local bookshop.”
