Super cute bookstore in the heart of Dormont. I first learned about this store when I decided to…read moremake a Bookstagram (literary.listener). They sell books via their physical store but also post stacks of books and you can claim them. The owner is very sweet and even works with you if it takes awhile for you to get to the store. Honestly, I love this. It helps to show the stock and then I go in already knowing what I need/want. Also in the area you can get a nice little bubble tea so you can have something to sip on while you peruse the bookshelves. They do have events also in the space. You should check out their Instagram. And after you check out their Instagram actually go to their bookstore and shop local.

Owner Jamie is the sweetest, I could talk about books with her all day! With a vast selection of mostly used and some newer popular fiction (all at an amazing discounted price), there is surely something for everyone! There are so many unique finds here. She puts so much work into buying books for the store. She has even acquired rare first editions of Sarah J. Maas books, and I was lucky enough to snag one of them! You can sell books to her as well, just keep an eye out for when she's buying!

They do have a unique selection though, and I was able to find some books that are difficult to find at other places, both used and new. The most unique parts were that they also have literary-themed tea, and being a small local store, they even have speakers come for events. The employees were friendly, but I happened to be there on a particularly busy day and I felt bad for the brand new employee who needed a little more guidance from her supervisor to check everyone out so the line could keep moving. It was nothing bad for the new employee because she was very friendly and doing her best, but it is important to help a new employee when it is busy.

This location is great when we are headed toward Ross Park Mall.. except for the giant hill of an entryway that... denoted by the scratches in the pavement... has removed a good number of bumpers! Sooooo... we are excited that they are relocating down the road. Still... shelves upon shelves of meticulously curated categories with sub categories and alphabetized authors.... Maybe we love this because we are both such detail oriented people! My wife and I love to remember our favorite authors and hunt down where they are. We spend far too many minutes sitting on the floors of the sections thumbing through shelves and pages. And there is nothing better when you get to checkout with a stack of books... and the price is half! Thanks for the date days! Thanks for staff that never minds people squatting and enjoying!

There's always a few ongoing activity or craft areas for the kids whenever you visit. I've purchased countless gifts there and they even wrap it for you in unique and beautiful paper! Always a hit. We've taken friends and family there and now they're hooked too. I seriously can't recommend this place enough. It's incredible!

It's mainly books for kids, but they have a small adult best seller section and will order books for you as well. Aspinwall and Pittsburgh in general is lucky to have this store! #thankyouthursday

I recently shopped inside this store. I appreciated that the two employees kindly greeted me but gave me space and time to look around on my own.

This store contains a large section for children's books, so if you have any children, then I encourage you to shop here.
