Inside a modest storefront lies a nicely decorated bookstore with high shelves and lots of hardcovers. After I entered, the bookstore's short-tailed cat sauntered up and blocked my path until I gave it some attention. I passed this test and was allowed passage. I prefer paperbacks so I was pleased to find a room full of them. The selections of science fiction, fantasy and mystery were good. I was surprised to find some men's adventure novels from the 1960s and 1970s. I bought a Sharyn McCrumb mystery novel Sick of Shadows. When I tried to leave the cat was near the exit. It had seen a lizard.

Not everything in Palatka is broken — some businesses truly keep the heart of this town alive. Needful Things Bookstore is one of them. It’s a place full of character, run by folks who care about stories, history, and people. In a county where too many are focused on profit over people, this shop feels different — genuine, welcoming, and rooted in community.
Support places like this — they’re the ones that make Palatka worth fighting for.

This place rocks. The cats are sleepy, and the prices are reasonable. I don't know how Palatka got so lucky.

The guy that owns the store is really chill and knowledgeable. His wife does a fantastic job organizing the shop. It's a really cool environment to be in. I will definitely be coming back!

The asthetic of the location is wonderful, and the owners are very helpful and hospitable. Everything is very fairly priced and in good quality, and they have a very wide selection of book as well as a few board games.
