Located in a remodeled 1920s? house that was filled with light the day we were there, it's a wonderful way to experience books. The journey from room to room feels like discovery. The staff was friendly and engaging and helpful. The only disappointment was not meeting one of the Berners that grace this treasure of a bookstore. Go.

This place is so cool, tons of books with many themed rooms for showcasing their selection. Small fireplace area to sit, and a tasty coffee bar. They also have cool little nick nacks, comical cards, and games/puzzles that can be bought as gifts. Will be a stop for us every time we walk through Geneva's third street.

Not much better than an adorable book store that offers coffee drinks

Good selection of books arranged in a charming manner and helpful staff. Wouldn’t mind seeing a little more variety/turnover/expansion in the sci-fi/fantasy/ horror section.

Be sure to ask when they are closing the bathroom to customers. They like to clean it early, making it unavailable to customers, so employees can leave sooner. I did not feel this was very customer friendly.

Such a cute bookshop! They were having a sidewalk sale and I picked up a new book! Bigger inside than it seems. Great selection of books for all ages.

A book lovers dream! This cute shop is stocked with book related goodies. They have a wide selection of books, including classics, new releases, and an adorable kids section. They have unique greeting cards, bookmarks, totes, and shirts..among other knickknacks. After shopping, I bought a coffee from their coffee shop and sat on their patio.

Awesome shop. Loved their room of banned books. Husband and I each purchased one to support the authors and the store. They also have an in-store coffee shop. What more could you ask for? except maybe cats?

Great staff. Love all the little nooks and seating to sit down and read a couple pages of a book. Next time we go, we'll be sure to try to coffee!

Harvey's Tales is a bookshop not to be missed. Roxanne and her friendly staff could not have been more helpful and welcoming. Just when we thought we'd seen every aesthetically attractive, well-curated nook and cranny in this historical house-turned-bookshop, another one was around the corner. Everything has been thought of, down to the smallest detail, to make book lovers and coffee enthusiasts want to stay and linger in this cozy, well-appointed shop. Great selection of books, puzzles, funny greeting cards, bags, art, stickers, coffee...a wonderful place all around. Oh, and don't miss the banned book room. Or the vast selection of Bernese Mountain Dog offerings. Two thumbs, four paws up for Harvey's Tales!

This is the most quaint, calm, lovely bookstore and the gentleman co-owner was the nicest. If you're looking for a unique greeting card...this is definitely the place to purchase such an item. Sunday, June 25th, was my first visit and I look forward to my next visit and my next visit thereafter. Beautiful experience. Thank you all.

I always stop here when I'm downtown. Lots of choices for books and fun little things like book earrings! The staff is always really nice, too!

What a treasure! If you want to feel like you stepped into a dream, this the place for you. Every single detail is interesting. I loved how they organized their books by topic. I love the staff picks section. The little coffee shop, the light-filled room where they obviously host book club meetings, the outdoor patio, the old wood floors, the books, books, books!! And little trinkets! And I love their commitment to Harvey, the mascot. Whoever put this store together has real passion and we are lucky to have access to it. Go to Harvey's Tales! It is a must see.
