“Very cool bookstore! We walked in from the downpour right before closing and were greeted by the nicest people. We perused the vast amount of books for a very small space; and beautiful selection of cards. Since they were closing and we didn’t have an umbrella, the owner offered us hers. She even went out to her car to get it! She went above and beyond to help us out! If we lived closer we would visit this bookstore more frequently.”
“Great selection! I love that they carry books that you don't see at corporate chains like B&N, whoever stocks those shelves knows that they're doing. I'll definitely be back.”
“This was a beautiful two floor location, very clean, organized and friendly helpful staff! There were some great clearance sales and as always a selection of books, gifts, journals everything a bookworm loves ❤️”
“Small and cute bookstore! Fairly well organized, though some of the labels were hard to read/peeling. A very big variety of genres, including well known + lesser known series/authors! Might be a bit tough to get to upper floor if you have trouble with stairs. Two lovely cats stood guard within the store, well behaved, peaceful, and very cute. Photo is of the poetry section.”
“Larry and his cat Lester were my favorite part of living in University city. I spent a lot of afternoons there looking through the shelves after class and when I moved away, I missed this spot the most.”
“Went in, haven't been here in some time. Glad I stopped in, purchased two books, had some great dialogue. The best Gem in West Philadelphia, and a Historic Landmark.”
“Is staffed by friendly volunteers. It's the only shop in Valley Forge for lunch (sandwiches, hot dogs, etc.), snacks, beverages, and souvenirs. Homemade baked goods are delicious, very reasonable priced. There are tables both inside and outside to sit and enjoy your snacks. It is also a site for official drop off box for worn American flags. Parking is available at Washington Chapel lot. Hidden gem for a nice break, at the end of your tour of Valley Forge.”
“It was a easy experience. The nurses were extremely helpful. Mrs.Asha was very caring and understanding. The nurses there make doctors visit more pleasant than it would be. I really appreciate they services. Awesome team over there.”
“What a gem! Amazing independent bookstore. My daughter loves kids corner in the back of the store. Staff always willing to give great book recommendations . We love supporting this small business.”
“We went on a Sunday and found the small store bustling. Employees were helpful and easy with recommendations. I got a signed Chuck Wendig novel and a handful of other things that looked interesting. Fun spot”
“This bookstore boutique was such a surprise! Excellent, curated collection of science fiction classics, fantasy, and romantic, including less well known authors and special editions. They have a big section of dungeon & dragons items, including custom dice. What really wowed me were the bookshelf craft kits and amazing quilled greeting cards, some of which were truly works of art. Great, helpful staff , too. Everything you need in an excellent little bookstore. I walked through the Dick's outside entrance to find it easily (as they were the first store when I excited the other side into the mall)”
“Lovely space. Great collection of books. Lots of authors come and speak, and the one I heard a night ago, Paul Halpern, was phenomenal. Thank you thank you for a surviving bookstore!!”
“This is a phenomenal second hand bookstore in Philadelphia. Not only is it in a great location on South Street, but it has a stellar selection of new and used books. Curtis, the owner, makes an effort to find and stock highly sought after and well kept editions. He's also a great conversationalist. I come for the books, but stay for the 30+ minute conversation. Great shop. Great owner. I couldn't recommend Neighborhood Books more.”
“The women who were closing tonight (5/16) were amazing. We needed to find Henny Penny for a baby shower in the morning. Unfortunatly we were the ones walking in right before closing. They ended up staying a little late to make sure we had exactly what we needed. We're extremely appreciative of their help!”
“I frequently visit Barnes and Noble at Lawrence Park Shopping Center. It's a wecoming place. I am always there for books, beautiful Christmas Cards ( the only place I purchase my holiday cards), magazines, adorable stuffed animals, unusual games, and a great children's section.
The staff is always helpful finding or ordering a book for me. Clean and open. Whenever I'm at Lawrence Park, which is weekly, I wonder into Barnes and Noble.”
“Support your independently owned children's book store! Books range from infancy to young adults. The owner clearly loves what she does and brings in events/authors for all to enjoy.”
“They no longer carry back issues. It's only new comics and account stuff now. It still gets a solid 5 stars from previous times I have gone over the years, sadly though it no longer has that gorgeous back issue section. A shadow of its former self, great staff, though.”

“I love shopping for books at Moore Books! Whether browsing the diverse selection for a random pick or requesting a special order, they are awesome. Love the ambience too and nice staff!”
“I’ve been buying Islamic books from this store for a while now — Alhamdullillāh — so visiting it for the first time, coming from out of state, was a really nice experience. They had such a wide range of books to choose from — mā shā’ Allāh, tabārak Allāh — and of course, you can’t leave without getting books — Alhamdullillāh.
I forgot to take pictures, but they also had a great selection of modest clothing — it was refreshing to see. There were so many pieces I wanted to get, but with all the smiles and excitement, I would’ve gone broke!
I ended up getting an overhead and an ʿabāyah — both made from very beautiful material. They were a bit on the pricey side, but the quality (at least for the ones I purchased) was genuinely nice, so I could understand the pricing. From my experience, Philly tends to be a bit pricey overall, so it aligns with what I’ve seen Islamic clothing typically go for in the city — wa Allāhu Aʿlam.
Alhamdullillāh, the owner and his wife were very kind and pleasant. May Allāh bless them, preserve their business in goodness, and make it pleasing to Him. Āmīn.”
“Love this place. Best sci Fi selection of any independent bookstore in Philly. The definition of chaotic good in a bookstore. Also-- If you are a teacher you get an extra discount!”
“Toni & Ronnie are seriously the best! I made multiple trips to the bookstore during alumni weekend and they handled the busy store with grace and an amazing sense of humor!”

“I randomly stopped in the bookshop this morning as I was walking through town and I am so glad I did. Celia's is a cozy, inviting place with a great variety of books. I loved the personalized selections written by the various staff members under their favorite books. I plan on bringing my kids next time I go. Highly recommend checking it out!”
“The place gives you more of a feel that you're meeting at a family friend's house then a regular bookstore. They have a great selection of books for all ages and genre interest. And they have an area where you can go and have tea and coffee while enjoying your book/magazine.”
“Nice little book store with good prices and a wide variety of genres- though not many well known books/series on the shelves. I personally wish the poetry section were larger! Organized nicely, and not cramped. :)”
“House of Our Own Books is a charming independent bookstore located in a Victorian house on the edge of the University of Pennsylvania campus in Philadelphia. They offer a wide selection of new and used books, spanning nearly every genre and featuring a balance of hardcover and paperback volumes. With a cozy atmosphere and friendly staff, House of Our Own Books is a haven for book lovers in Philadelphia.”
“Books Through Bars does excellent work in sending free book packages to inmates in Pennsylvania and surrounding states. They're completely volunteer-run & host volunteering sessions for people to help pick/pack books. Volunteer organizers are friendly and helpful. I highly recommend volunteering there! You can just drop in & spend 30 minutes or a few hours, whatever you like. Whenever I volunteer there, it feels like I'm really making a difference in someone's life -- because I am. It's an eye-opening experience that gives me a new perspective. Books Through Bars also takes donations (money, books they need, supplies) so there are lots of ways to support them even if you can't make it down there in person.”

“(Translated by Google) Westminster hats, clothes T-shirts, cardigans, cups, key chains, and many more to celebrate.(Original)웨스트민스터 모자와 옷 티셔츠 가디건 컵 열쇠고리등 여러가지 기념될만한 것들이 있습니다.”
“I love this bookshop! it’s a cute and cozy place…and i’ve been making it a point to support local businesses and not relying on amazon before they run out all local bookstores and drive their book prices up. If they don’t have the book you need then you can ask them to order it for you!”
