This adorable little bookshop gives a new meaning to the phrase "shop small" - it's one simple, gorgeously designed, and meticulously curated room full of some of the best titles for kids, teens, and young adults. However, what the space lacks in vastness, it makes up for in charm and heart. We visited here tonight because my boyfriend, who is a horror author, did a reading of some of his spooky short stories for Halloween. The event was wonderful, complete with a generous array of snacks, cozy seating, and twisted tales told by candlelight. This is the first of many of these events, which will not only include local author readings, but also book discussion groups and writing workshops. The owner, Alexandra, is super friendly and dedicated to sharing her love of literature with the community and beyond, and if you're a bibliophile, you'll find yourself at home in this bookish haven of her creation! While this was my first visit, I can safely say that Books on the Pond is now going to be a wonderful excuse to visit this part of Rhode Island more often! They have a wonderful outdoor area with a fire pit, which was unusable tonight due to inclement weather (sad trombone), but I am excited to come back another night to enjoy reading under the stars by the warmth of the fire! If you're looking for a fabulously unique shop that's truly off the beaten path, Books on the Pond is the place to go!

It's right next to Ulta and a few other stores that I personally enjoy shopping. My husband mentioned that the shopping center was literally created for just me because it has a lot of my favorite shops in the same center. Extremely friendly employees that helped my husband find the medical books that he was looking for and my sons all found something that they wanted. I will probably go back to buy some calligraphy pens that I saw. I'm just an amazing vibe all around. They had some great deals on some books and other items I bought my husband some posts that said number one Dad on it. I love that there's a place for you to get coffee so that you can sit there and enjoy some coffee while shopping around.

Looks like a larger Barnes and Noble but the selection is quite lacking. I also find it ironic that…read morethe witch craft section (low key shocked to see) was next to the self help. Kind of weird. Also they have a limited philosophy section in which I'd say half of the philosophy was Buddhism (again near witch craft section). I would have put the Buddhism in religion not philosophy? Would have loved to see a more robust selection but perhaps that is just a testament to the area as they stock what demand requests. Would not go back too.
