I enjoyed my time gathering valuable information concerning different books and authors. The shop had many quality books to choose from. The owner made me feel at home and relaxed. I recommend Blk + Brown! Hope to return soon.

The owner is so smart and a delight! She is in the know of most things and the few things she doesn’t know she usually knows how to get the information. The store is warm and inviting. She keeps a great selection of books and lots of good activities and events.

One of my favorite things to do whenever I'm traveling in any capacity, is to find local BIPOC owned book stores. This past weekend I was lucky enough to visit @blkbrwnkc in Kansas City, Missouri. The space opened on Juneteenth in 2021 and was created specifically to amplify Black and brown storytelling in all its forms.My first thought when I walked into the door was that I felt cozy and safe. With local artwork displayed throughout and all the books front facing, it felt like an art gallery while still being homey. This bookstore is unique in that the content is curated to fit a theme. So, books displayed change monthly! Next month, the owner says the books will center on mental health.If you're in the area - stop by! You won't regret it!

Always a pleasure at BLK+BRWN! The owner is so warm and knowledgeable. The space is inviting and always has new books and sometimes good made by local artists. Monthly book clubs is truly the icing on top.

What a beautiful book store! I love the decor, art work and music. They did not have the books I was looking for but didn’t hesitate to order them for me. Thank you!
