“Cute little bookshop, backed by a super knowledgeable and sweet shop owner who also runs the store. Fantastic book selection; children’s books, romance, biographies, fiction; classics, new releases; popular picks and obscure titles; cookbooks and self-help books. Right in the neighborhood, making travel light and easy. Located next to a cafe, so you can enjoy your books while having a drink. Near the park, do changing the scenery while you read is an added bonus!”

“Great store!! But if you’re here to work on your computer, there are no outlets. I suggest going to the Edison public library right down the block instead, otherwise great store”

“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.”

“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.”

“This place is amazing! So cozy and the owner, Lauren is friendly and was lovely to chat with for a moment :) Have their own little children’s nook and a great selection of new finds. I love ‘bookstore hopping’ whenever I go somewhere new and this is one I’ll be going back to! Just a great environment and it’s clear they care about the community and have wonderful ethics. <3”

“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'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!”
