“The staff here are always kind and courteous, but allow you to browse in peace which I appreciate. I can easily spend hours here every time I come. I love how their stock is always updating with “new” old books to look at every visit. I especially love their selection of the 25 cent Dell Agatha Christie selection and have been able to build my own person collection from purchasing them here. Their books are always very well priced and there are so many gems on their shelves. Now that I’ve graduated from Drew, I don’t get to go as often as I’d like, but they were wonderfully in walking distance of the university”

“A hidden gem for book lovers! 📚
The Book Trader is a great spot with an amazing selection, ranging from timeless classics to contemporary books and even textbooks.
For those unfamiliar with how secondhand bookstores work, it might seem a bit cluttered at first glance. However, everything is actually well-organized on specific shelves by genre. If you ever feel lost, the lady who runs the place is super sweet and always ready to help.
It's a wonderful place to hunt for countless titles—just bring some time, patience, and enjoy the process!”

“It’s a nice little bookstore. Half the store seems dedicated to kids and kids books, so lots of good gifting opportunities if there are little ones in your life.

Good selection of new releases for adults.”

“This store is so pretty, clean, and well organized. The book section signs are easy to see and staff is friendly and helpful. Their stationery/journals/gifts section is also beautiful. And even though its footprint is smaller than some other B&Ns, this one still has everything you could want. I drive 30 minutes out of my way on Rt.22 which is a really busy road, just to get there. After you book shop, you can eat Korean at Kpot or burgers at Shake Shack.”

“I like this student store they hold items for my wife when she orders. They should have a bigger selection of student sports wear, like jackets, hoodies, sizes 2XL to 3XL.
but they need to get better materials like 100% cotton sweats joggers & shirts more often. They're have snacks and a small variety of headphones, but they are a little more pricier students should have better deals. If you get a headache or cramps, they have Tylenol or advil for students. The little Bodega of Essex County is what I call it lol. They should have more cold drinks. I give it a 7 out of 10.”

“Stocks a really nice selection of comic books. Besides the mainstream titles, a lot of indie stuff. Features a great selection of graphic novels and an added bonus; because it's attached to the Kubert comic book artist school, You can get a all your comic art supplies in one store!..”

“Prices are high on basic goods as expected and the variety of brands per object is limited. Again, being a campus book store, this is expected. Oddly, they don't have basic necessities like milk, laundry detergent, or bleach (3rd is understandable).”

“Certain workers are kinda rude, but most were pretty nice. Edit It's nice to see a reply. I've added a star. The sitaution was that it was my first time in the bookstore and I walked up to the register to ask where the line started. Before I even got my first scentence out I way yelled at for cutting the line, which was Ironic. The worker said this loud enough to try to shame me I guess? As a suggestion, it would be nice if the line was down the center of the store, which seems to be the more intuitive setup. Better yet, it could be parrallel to the front. Regaurdless, thankyou.”

“I had one of the best experiences thanks to a male worker I think by the name Erick? He helped me find what I needed and supplied me with the correct books I’d need to make this semester a breeze. Thanks for being genuine and a real life saver when it meant the most!”

“I loved the bad reviews from what I call the ‘insta crowd’ they will give you a good laugh. This is an actual used book store. Happy with what I found yesterday. Think of the spirit of the word ‘found’. ❤”

“i'm in the C terminal waiting for my flight. the book store is, pardon the cliche, the eye of calm in the storm. The books are a stunning collection - awesomely creepy kids books to enthrall the pre-teen crowd, graphic novels, books about POC, books by POC, international authors, and something for every reader. Books in spanish -- from fiction to true crime-- gorgeous travelogues. Strong POC focused collection. An inspirational reading section Grandmother B would love -- Granmere V would go for the crosswords. My tastes are eclectic and well matched by this lively oasis, but even my dad (conservative and non-fiction reader) would appreciate the multiple standing shelves of biography, history, and business. If they had coffee, I'd spend my entire layover here. Oh, wait, let me hit the espresso stand around the corner and come back...”

“I had an easy time here. As soon as I walked in a team member guided me in the right direction. The book info desk was decent I asked for all the books on my course list and for some reason they kept asking if I would buy everything even after I already said I would. But no big deal. The supply section also had everything I needed to start my semester. The cashier was also great and helpful. Last but not least the 50 percent off holiday books in the new year was great too!”
