Cute, bright, and clean book store! Loved the employee suggestions and reviews. They also had quite a few signed copies which I thought was cool. The location was a little weird to find, but it’s a cute neighborhood book store.

It was a treat to visit a hidden gem with kids. It was such a cute small shop. Every customer is personally attended to and served graciously. Loved it

I adore this local independent bookstore! The staff are wonderful, as is their selection, even if the space isn't huge. I do all of my online book ordering through Scrawl, and love coming in to peruse when I have a few minutes. Long live Scrawl Books!

A lovely little independent bookstore. A good selection of books, well laid out. I am embarrassed that I have not visited them before but I hardly ever go to Reston Town Center. This was a special trip for the book store.

Cute little bookstore, lots of signed copies of various books (I was looking at the children's books). Sells various art supplies, bookmarks, pens, puzzles. Nice to look around and browse and to support a small business, but if you need a specific book, you may want to call first since it doesn't have as wide a selection as a major book chain.

I just love this bookstore! I also saw they do free delivery to my area and I had to take them up on that! What a wonderful and inclusive service! And they wrapped it so cute! Loved it! Those touches do not go unnoticed!

Tiny, very well curated bookstore. Great, helpful, knowledgable, friendly staff. They'll cheerfully order books for you that they don't have in stock. Fun events - I stumbled into an author talk here that was wonderful. Also some fun, bookish gifts and t-shirts.

Great for having an independent book store in the area! Hope it gets much love and support from the locals and grows.

I've foolishly visited when I didn't have an unbounded amount of time to enjoy the store. I came in and was immediately greeted by the friendly staff and the sight of an impressive amount of books given the small space. But, I made it no further in than approximately 3 feet inside the door before I sat down and looked through all the kids books (my initial reason for visiting was to get some books for my nephew's birthday). While it's possible Barnes & Noble has the same books, I had just visited the new location in Reston prior to coming here and didn't have nearly the success I had at Scrawl. I'm not a kids book afficionado by any means, but while they had the well-known classics, they had so many books I had never seen before. I found a new book by Kevin Hinkes (of Chrysanthemum and Lily's Purple Plastic Purse fame), beautiful cutaway books about nature, and a precious new perspective - that of a cat - on bringing a new baby home for the first time. I got all of that and asked if they had a Dog's First Baby book as well and they were very helpful in ordering it (it arrived just a few days later with the option for delivery in the area, but I didn't want to miss an opportunity to go back). Despite the store being tucked away from the bustle of the town center, it's absolutely the best destination there. 10/10 would recommend. :)

Lovely bookstore with kind and helpful staff. I love the notes scattered about with book recommendations! They also have a few online and in person events each month. I highly recommend checking out Scrawl!

They offer free gift wrap (with the message of your choice written on a cute little tag) and free delivery. I use them for all my kids' birthday party gifts, and it's one less thing I need to deal with. The customer service is excellent!
