There's a section for vintage and classic books and an adorable couch to sit on if you want to get cozy and read a bit. The window displays are always cute, there's a "beach" read theme for the summer! Inside there's a mystery display. Current popular authors are found as well as some obscure ones. Very small poetry section, which is sad as I'm a fan and writer of poetry! Nice and helpful staff!

This is one of my favorite places in the area. Whenever my partner and I go book shopping, we come…read morehere first (and we also sell them all the books we read for store credit). The staff is so friendly, and the selection of books is LARGE. There is something for everyone here, whether you're looking for a classic, a mystery, manga, a cookbook, or even a puzzle. They also do little events throughout the year, and put a lot of love and thought into them. If you follow their social media you can see when the events are and I encourage you to attend! They always have a fun game or free gift or little treats. It is such a homey feel, and is so great if you like the classic bookstore feel. The pricing structure is also simple and straightforward; you pay half the cover price for any book you get (which means many of the older books/airport readers are a super great deal). Couldn't recommend more!

While on the waitlist, we wandered into this little bookshop, and I was instantly impressed. They were fantastic titles on display, and the owner is very obviously knowledgeable about books for all ages. She helped each of my kids, find two books, and said she was happy to order any books that we did not have in the store. It was one of the best bookstore experiences I have had in many years! This is like the "toys that teach" of bookstores.

We were pleased with the selection, even on a super busy Saturday (plus it was a special event day). The staff was very kind and seemed to know a lot about their merchandise. The prices were all for new books, so full price. We usually thrift or buy our books second hand, so we only got one while there- that would be my only qualm, that I think they should have a used section as well! If we missed it, it might've just been because it was busy. Overall enjoyed our visit!

There were tons of books for such a small space and the books are fairly priced.You can bring books to sell, but only until 4pm. It is worth a visit.

This is one of the best book stores in town. I stumbled upon Aaron on TikTok…read more https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZTrRcUmgy/) who recommended this bookstore and I am glad I came. They have a ton of books for adults, young adults, and children. Everything is well-organized by author's last name and genre. It is also very easy to walk through the aisles. I saw a huge collection of CDs and DvDs. Everything is well-priced too. They also sell beads, jewelry, clothes and other cool things you have to check out. My favorite is Skeletina who is sitting at a table looking very happy to be there. By her, there is a cart of books that just came in that is always good to check out. Also, the staff is friendly and helpful. You can trade in books, CDs or movies for credit. If you can't find what you are looking for, you can leave them a list of books you want and they will be on the lookout and let you know if it comes in. Be sure to check them out. They have plenty of parking spaces in front of the store. You won't be disappointed. Just a heads up, this Saturday, November 29th EVERYTHING in the store will be on sale. It is "Small Business Day" and worth getting those good deals. I will include my book finds for today.

I can't let Women's History Month come to an end without giving a shout out to a business that is…read moreowned by a black woman. I visited The Book Bar last month during a trip to Richmond. As an avid reader and lover of literature, book stores are kind of my jam. I visited on a Sunday afternoon. The store was pretty empty as there was only one other customer there at the time. The cool thing about The Book Bar is that they sell books and wine! They also have a bar where they do wine tastings. Although I didn't indulge in a wine tasting during my visit, the wine tastings are free! Although they sell books here, this isn't what you'd expect from the typical book store. I think of it as more of a community space where you can buy and/or read books, sip wine, and enjoy good conversation. They also host events here, including author visits. In addition to books and wine, they sell products from other local businesses. I picked up some banana pudding cookies from here made by The Sweetest Thing RVA. Finally, I can't end my review without acknowledging the excellent customer service I received while there. I was immediately greeted by the staff upon entering the store even though she was helping someone else. Then, the employee proceeded to assist me when she had the chance. She asked me what I was currently reading and if I had a favorite genre. I told her that I like historical fiction and she recommended a book for me. The cool thing is she recommended a book that had references to the city of Richmond, which made the book a nice personal souvenir to remind me of my visit. I can't wait to return! Please check them out!

There is also a whole section for treats, self care items, and goodies. I plan to be back and get some work done with some wine from their selection.
