Small bookstore that has a great variety & will happily order whatever they don't have in store. Staff that are always ready to help you find something to read and an interesting assortment of goodies, candles, pens & pencils, cards, notebooks, totes.

Awesome bookstore/cafe. Situated in an area of Jersey City that shuts down on certain days of the week to allow for street festivals, this shop is the perfect place to walk in, grab a book, a coffee, and a snack, and then head outside to a table to enjoy your read while soaking in some local live music. Very clean and well-organized, and the staff is incredibly kind, courteous, and knowledgeable. They often host local and famous authors for signing events and Q&As, so be sure to check those out as well. A real breath of fresh air.

Love the selection of books. Just wish it was bigger, and more books. My boys like the Manga section but would love a bigger selection.

It is a really awesome book store for people of all ages. They have little books for kids and big book for adults. They have a built in Cafe. They also sell, calendars, toys, planners, pins, bookmarks, and cards as well as a great selection of books. On some days they have famous athours come in for meet and greets.

Used to love getting books from here back when I had an obsession w/ stranger things and had to get a school related book, I would come here, it's good if you want world books, but if you want faith-based books, might want to look elsewhere, considering that many books that I try to look for online at their website - can't be ordered. Will still be coming here for school related books, cooking, and books regarding race - but it's quite upsetting that faith-based books aren't able to be purchased in the way that other books are.

A good selection of authors and titles, but I'm always concerned about pricing. Not that books are too expensive, rather are the costs competitive with Amazon? I hate the idea that one day soon, all of my book purchases will be done only online, because brick and mortar book stores just don't exist anymore. A depressing thought.

Cool place cool books exceptional location bad part if you are not (and I repeat) not a downtown yuppie you are treated differently. Like you do not belong in their little bookstore or even worse like in their universe! Again social skills and personal interactions are a must for any businesses to survive!

Makes JC a better place to live and be. Everything is better with books.

Everyone here is very helpful. Today I needed a particular book and they not only looked for it online, but had a copy in stock!!! I am so happy that we have such a great local book store.😊📚

Word is curated well with fun events for the community. I often go to get baby books as gifts, and they have cute odds and ends to go with them. Also, that cafe is excellent.
