I love Books Are Magic. I love why it was started, how it's effected the community, the events and authors it hosts, and also the adorable ambiance of the bookshop itself.
Beautiful new book shop, much needed quality of selection, and attention to their patrons. Hands on staff really know and love their stuff. Great kids section. There's something for everyone!

One of my favorite bookstores in the five boroughs! Has an eclectic collection to choose from, but I really appreciate their selection of modern American literature.
Girls happened here. Run around and hang out near the shelves like Hannah and Sandy did.
An awesome bookstore in the heart of Bedford. Jonas is the owner, and he will buy back your old books.
