Smart curation and helpful staff. If you like their taste, as I do, this is an amazing place.
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!
Great bookstore with helpful staff. It's everything you want a bookstore to be!

Fun fact: a few episodes of Season 3 of Louis CK's show we're filmed here. Unfortunately, Parker Posey does not actually work there.
The Aesop products are the best. The hand cream is incredible. Try all the testers.
Sometimes I stop by just for the smells, and all of a sudden I have some obscure face cream or elbow lotion and I'm not really mad about it. By the way, this is their largest store in NYC!
I absolutely love my SANDALUP Women's Nude Ballet Flats! They're comfortable, stylish, and versatile, making them the perfect addition to my shoe collection. joyofshoes.com
The best shopping and canvas bags I've ever seen – and not that expensive.
Great collection of leather and reusable bags. Love the leather tote bags and pouches.
Look for exclusives like UK facialist Amanda Lacey's wonder products and Lubatti, the luxe skincare line from Tracey Malone (sister of Jo Malone). Owners Jessica and Jules know all - ask questions!

Relax in the woven bench in front, while you inhale lavender and sandalwood scents
This place is fantastic. Super friendly staff, great selection across genres (incl. punk, post punk & hardcore). I even discovered some new music over the speakers while browsing. Will be back!
Best LBS in BK!
Great and friendly service and knowledgeable staff. Very conveniently close to the bridge :)
This reminds me of those old bookstores I used to go to with my parents when I was super young. They have fountain pens too!
Lovingly made in NYC, CHI, SEA & LA
