Book Stores near Ewing, NJ

“Ah, Barnes & Noble - the land of infinite books and the occasional overpriced coffee. It's the perfect place to spend a lazy afternoon, browsing through the shelves and pretending to be intellectual. Walking through the doors, I was greeted by the overwhelming smell of paper and ink. It's like a bookstore air freshener on steroids. But hey, I'm not complaining. I love the smell of a good book as much as the next person. As I perused the stacks, I couldn't help but feel like a kid in a candy store. So many books, so little time (and money). And let's not forget about the fancy bookmarks and journals that I don't need but must have. It's a dangerous game, my friends. But then there's the cafe. Ah, the cafe. The place where you can spend $5 on a cup of coffee and feel like a sophisticated member of society. It's the perfect spot to people-watch and eavesdrop on conversations that are far more interesting than your own. Overall, Barnes & Noble is a great place to get lost in the world of literature and spend way too much money on things you don't need. And who knows, you might even learn something along the way (but let's not get too crazy).”

“one of the greatest small bookstores out there!
they offer gift cards, which make great gifts. also, the staff at the front are incredibly kind and will help you find a specific book or anything that you're looking for”

“This bookstore is a cultural treasure and if I had written a review a year or so ago, it would have had a solid five star rating. I've deducted one star because in recent months they've drastically downgraded their selection of books in foreign languages. The large section upstairs has been replaced by a tiny selection downstairs among the used and rare books. I was told that they are not phasing out the foreign language section but it does seem pretty anemic at the present time. Sad that, even in a town such as Princeton, readers are depressingly monolingual.
That said, the bookstore is a wonderful place for browsing. They constantly bring in new books of high quality and the used books are most interesting and various. You never know what might turn up.
The staff are friendly and if they do not have a book in stock, they will make an effort to find a copy for you.
In these post-literate times, Labyrinth is an invaluable resource.”

“I was hosted at the Barnes and Noble in Princeton, New Jersey for a book signing. The event went very well, but I left behind a carry-all. B&N contacted me and returned it via the post at no charge. I call that exceptional customer service.”

“I went in to purchase some gifts for my 4-year-old granddaughter. The woman who helped me was very knowledgeable and resourceful. I had been told this was the place to go. She listened to my my thoughts, issues and concerns and we agreed on a couple of presents. Additionally, she helped ensure that the presence got there on time. I highly recommend this store!”

“Books, books, and more books. A wonderful and welcoming atmosphere. I love how they give back to the community in many ways including giving smaller, perhaps unknown, groups the opportunity to use their space to socialize, engage in reciprocity of thought, and have fun. Kudos to Classics Books and Gifts!”

“There was a older gentleman man in the store in the center of the store on the first floor. I wish I remember his name, he was excellent. Very nice and definitely a hard worker older white male.”

“This is a charming children’s book shop in the lovely town of Hopewell. Owner Bobbie stocks many unique books and will help you find the perfect one for your little one based on age and interests. You won’t find this kind of service at chain stores and Bobbie will gift wrap your selection at no charge. I highly recommend it.”

“I really enjoyed the opportunity to speak with John Kennedy. What’s interesting is that we share a lot of similar values and stories. The customer service at this book store was outstanding and so helpful. My wife and I are looking forward to reading this book. God bless!!”

“I recently had the privilege of attending ANJEC's 50th Environmental Congress, a landmark event that brought together environmental enthusiasts, policymakers, and community members to discuss critical environmental issues facing New Jersey and beyond. The Congress was held at the Mercer County Community College, a picturesque venue that provided a fitting backdrop for the inspiring discussions that unfolded.From the moment I stepped into the event space, I was struck by the palpable energy and enthusiasm permeating the atmosphere. The organizers had meticulously planned every detail, ensuring a seamless and engaging experience for all participants. The well-organized schedule allowed attendees to navigate effortlessly between diverse sessions, each offering unique insights into various environmental topics.One of the highlights of the Congress was my opportunity to speak about a topic close to my heart: land injustices faced by Native American communities in New Jersey. The audience was incredibly receptive, engaging in thoughtful discussions that underscored the importance of recognizing and addressing these injustices. The Congress provided a valuable platform for amplifying the voices of marginalized communities, fostering dialogue, and promoting meaningful action.The Congress also showcased the remarkable work being done by individuals and organizations across the state to protect our environment. From innovative conservation initiatives to community-driven environmental stewardship projects, the event highlighted the power of collective action in preserving New Jersey's natural beauty and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.In addition to the stimulating discussions and inspiring presentations, the Congress offered ample opportunities for networking and collaboration. I enjoyed connecting with fellow environmental advocates, sharing ideas, and exploring potential partnerships. The event fostered a sense of community and camaraderie, reinforcing that we are all interconnected in our efforts to protect our planet.Overall, ANJEC's 50th Environmental Congress was an exceptional event that exceeded my expectations. It provided a comprehensive overview of the pressing environmental challenges facing New Jersey while also celebrating the achievements and ongoing efforts to safeguard our environment. The event's emphasis on inclusivity, community engagement, and action-oriented solutions inspired me to continue advocating for environmental stewardship and social justice.I commend ANJEC for organizing such a meaningful and impactful event. The 50th Environmental Congress is a testament to the organization's unwavering commitment to protecting our environment and fostering a sustainable future for New Jersey.”

“I ordered the book "Captured Rebel Flag" online-- this was the only place I could find it! The seller got back to me right away saying he had to order more from the publisher in the UK (I think this book has been out of print for 10+ years) and it came! The website is a little outdated but functional and the seller was amazing. Thank you so much! Now that you've got the book back in print a lot of Revolutionary War history buffs will appreciate it.”

“If you are looking for the newest romances you saw on an app, I am happy to say that this place will not provide. Walking in, I was happy to see a large collection of older books, and found that they seemed to curate a collection of less common books, with a good mix of both new and old. The prices are fantastic for what they have, and while not everything even fits on the shelves, they also have cases of collectible versions of some things. My husband and I happily walked out with a handful of things all on the older side to add to our home library, and we are looking forward to making regular stops in to see what they get in.”

“A huge selection of paper calendars and mainstream toys/games that do not require mastery of Mandarin by the age of 3. I applaud the contrarian instincts of any Princeton outpost that specializes in Hot Wheels, toy guns and action figures. Not the playthings of elite academia but certainly provoking a worthy smirk just by being there. Given their inventory, how they pay the rent in this progressive playpen is anyone's guess but needless to say, I'm beyond curious. For that bedeviled tyke who's in desperate need of a plastic AK-47 for show and tell in the gifted language program. Five easy stars.”

“This is a hidden gem tucked into Oxford valley mall! They are seriously the best I don’t wanna mention what product but you made my nephews day! Being able to get these for my family anywhere has been difficult and I know they aren’t easy to find so thank you so fricken much!

Great stores still but can’t maintain Pokemon card stock”

“(Translated by Google) A place to find what is necessary to satisfy the needs of spiritual knowledge as well as a fine attention from its owner.(Original)Un lugar para encontrar lo necesario para satisfacer las necesidades de conocimiento espiritual además de una fina atención de parte de su propietaria.”

“Really great booksellers with tons of hidden treasures. Make sure you watch the video on their website so you don’t miss out! They’ve got books and movies galore. Check out their site too. Staffed by amazingly nice people. I’ll be back for sure!”

“Pretty good place to get books and other things like shirts, Sweatshirts and other clothing items. Depending on the day you will have a better time. Sometimes staff is a little assertive and disrespectful but that's with every company. Overall. Good.”

“Amazing service! Also I was able to find a game I’ve been having trouble looking for. I can’t remember the name but the cashier with the long hair was so kind and helpful too.”

“This is always one of the best book sales in NJ. The sale offers a huge selection, fair prices and a wonderfully helpful staff of volunteers. You can also donate your unwanted books during the year, Wednesdays & Saturdays, 10 am - 12 pm. at the Vanderventer Ave. location. The sale is actually held at Princeton Day School during the spring/winter break. Don't miss it!”

“Extremely friendly owners. Very reasonable prices. Convenient location. Love the way their store is setup. Makes the shopping experience that much better. I highly recommend Allthings4u!”
