Finally had the chance to stop by Little House of Books today! What a fabulous little book shop!…read moreThe small town feel and cozy ambiance reminded me of Stars Hollow (Gilmore Girls fans, anyone?). The place is adorably decorated and has a nice size, curated book collection with something to offer for everyone. I was greeted by the owner who was so kind and also rang me up. My books were packaged so nicely with decorative tissue paper too! I found two books here that have been on my list to grab: Malibu Rising by Taylor Jenkins Reid and Crying in H-Mart by Michelle Zauner (singer in the band Japanese Breakfast!). Both books are paperback which is my preference, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that Crying in H-Mart was 30% off! There is an area for kids, a cafe area serving coffee and drinks, and a nice outdoor patio area as well. This place has it all! If you're in the area, be sure to stop by and browse!

This store is one of the largest book stores in the area and is nice. They have a huge selection…read more The prices are about 10 or more dollars at the store than online through other retailers. It is a good place to get ideas of what you want to read. I didn't interact with anyone so I can't make a comment on the service.

This is a go-to spot for me when finding gifts for family and friends. From puzzles, to games and…read moretoys, to stationary and tote bags, Barnes & Noble has a little bit of everything. The selection is massive, and the staff is friendly. Prices are reasonable, especially in the sale area at the back of the store. I also love the kids area, which has a train table and puppets that children can play with; it's a great outing on a winter day.

I forgot to take photos but this was my first time going and wow was I amazed…read more The bookstore itself had a lot of options and was organized well! Ramona made the most delicious drinks! Mango guava lemonade, chai latte, & brown sugar shaken espresso! All the staff were very friendly as well!

This is a great bookstore, and I enjoyed the books that they feature and categorize, especially new…read morearrivals, best sellers, and books/authors related to Pittsburgh. The coffee bar surpasses expectations. The drinks are great, especially because of their unique syrups and drink combinations. I have enjoyed lattes and fruit flavored lemonades, and my favorites have been the strawberry matcha and the blue velvet latte, which featured blueberry roobios syrup. The employees have also been very nice and it is cute inside. There is space to sit and read or work near the coffee bar - you are able to take your computer and work there with a drink from the coffee bar, without even needing to buy a book. It is a great multifunctional community space.

I enjoy this place. They have a typewriter and they stand for a good cause. The staff I've…read moreexperienced is cool depending on who's there. It was quiet when I first began going. Some employees play music which I found distracting. Another employee seemed to have monitored me during my entire visit; maybe she thought I was going to steal a $4.99 book. Idk The place is not as clean as it could be, such as the bathroom, and some of the chairs need to be wiped off or completely replaced as they are stained and have an odor. I would not get any beverages from here unless it's sealed. The hours fluctuate often. I have made one too many trips during the weekday, weekend, daytime or afternoon to find the door locked. And I'm not aware that there's communication given ahead of time about their fluctuating hours for the given day. If you need to get your fix from a book, just buy it because there's no guarantee you can read it the next time you plan to.

This place was such a joy to spend an afternoon in. For those who are very well read and those who…read morehaven't picked up a book in awhile, I can guarantee you'll find a title that catches your eye. This place has a very apparent and pointed purpose for existing. Not necessarily to convert everyone into being anarchists, but more so wanting to encourage free, critical thinking. It's certainly worth a visit and had so many intriguing books that brought me a lot of joy to browse through.

Half Price Books is a retail-store chain that has stores in many states and buys and sells new and…read moreused books, DVDs, records, CDs, puzzles, and more. This particular store is in the Village Square Mall. For many years, I purchased books through the business's website. Most recently, my husband and I shopped in this physical store. My husband felt interested in looking at books about software and gaming. He saw some books that he liked. However, he saw one book that he already owns and that he said was not worth the $75 price tag. Otherwise, I felt interested in the books about photography, film, pets, and the social sciences. This store has many other sections of books, including home repair, interior design, gardening, fashion, architecture, cooking, history, science, travel, language, crime, children's, etcetera. Some books are collectibles such as first editions and signed copies. This store also sells calendars, greeting cards, board games, and more. I will give a neutral rating for this physical store, because the business's website has a significantly larger selection of merchandise that is available for shipping.

Your typical Half Price Books. Good selection on comics and books, the movie section seemed a…read morelittle thin but that could be due to the current situation. They had signs to direct traffic which is great if other people read them. Sold some items, got about what I expected for them. Overall if you've been to one HPB you've been to them all.

Just a treat. You…read morewill find books that you didn't know that you needed, but you absolutely must have them. It looks small, but it packs a lot in. Books are in great shape, the store is orderly, and it's pretty to boot. Lovely, friendly folks run the place. Chairs for reading. Nice windows. It's a gem.

This is a super cute local, independent bookstore and I highly encourage anyone in the area to…read morecheck it out! Most of the books there are used, so they're sold at a cheaper price but they have new books too. The used books are almost all in really great shape. Outside of the store, they have book carts with $5 and under books. The store is two floors, and the upper floor has a cozy reading area. The shelves in the store are separated by genre and there are also tables with owner-recommended books. In addition to books, there are also plants for sale. The place is so nicely decorated and such a nice environment for reading. To be honest, it doesn't even feel like walking into a store, and it's more like a cozy home. As a plus, I think this place has a cat around sometimes, but I didn't see the cat during my visit.

This is by far one of my favorite places to be in general. The atmosphere for me to either read a…read morebook (for either leisure or academic reasons) is always perfect in my opinion. Even with the slight chatter in the background as I study is not a distraction in comparison to if I was in a different setting. The vibe is always unmatched here to me. I get a lot of work accomplished here. There's a wide variety of books and periodicals here as well for all readers (if we didn't know that already lol). I just love this place!!

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.

This is the best, coziest bookstore in the Pittsburgh area! A visit to Dormont is incomplete…read morewithout a stop at this lovely shop. 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!
