Lovely place with a wonderful variety of books. There is a sense that the books were thoughfully oragnized as well as carefully curated. The folks there are super kind as well. I can't wait to make this a new study/reading spot!

Love Black Pearl Books, I've never had the option to visit in person but have ordered books in the past and now after learning about them through a coworker. Always friendly when responding to emails and the books always arrive in perfect condition!

Obsessed with this adorable little bookshop! Really serves as a wonderful community space, they even have their own little exchange free library section where you can donate books for people to grab for free!

Wow, what a treasure this place is. A great selection of books, friendly staff, most importantly everyone is welcome. This is one of those places that gives me hope for humanity. I stumbled in and smiled out ? If you love books and your fellow man shop here! 10 out of 10 stars!!!

Whoever curates their selection has truly excellent taste in literature. Recommend the “banned books” shelf and the community section. You can also order online for pickup! Also, it is such a welcoming store that makes me feel I’m part of something. I hope they are my local bookstore for years to come.

Black Pearl Books is the bookstore of dreams.Their space is gorgeously decorated, their take-a-book-leave-a-book community bookshelf is just about my favorite thing ever, and their general collection is incredibly well curated. There have been several times I've taken a chance on a featured novel on their shelves and I've never once been disappointed!They also have an outstanding rewards/loyalty program!Katrina and Eric are the embodiment of everything that makes bookstores magical, and their passion shines through in every aspect of the store. I'm so happy that they've been able to create this space for us all to enjoy and I hope it continues to thrive for as long as they want to share it with us.

I was driving down Burnet today and was lucky enough to have Black Pearl catch my eye. What a wonderful store, with a wonderful staff. I will be supporting this independent store for a long time to come.

Small, cute, peaceful, and diverse selection of books that might otherwise be lost at a major retailer.
