Today,…read more11/30/2025....what an awful interaction with a miserable women that I was later told is a store manager. I was having a hard time finding a book by James Fell, a fairly well known author. I asked her where I could find his books and instead of simply looking this up I got a nasty face, and a disdainful "I don't know who that is. Are you sure that's the right name?" Not her words...her tone and demeanor. SMH. Another employee, right nearby, assisted me, found the book in seconds and was on his way. No...I didn't buy it. Principle. I passed her again later and got another dirty look....really? Another issue entirely...is there a good reason that there are novels...many novels.... in the religion section? Inquiring minds would like to know. I hadn't been in this store in quite some time...won't return any time soon. Changed and not for the better. FTR...everyone else that I spoke to in the store, aside from the rude manager, was quite pleasant, friendly, and helpful. Wow, B & N...Amazon is eating you. Do better.

This bookstore isn't your Barnes and Noble. It is the classic bookstore from the neighborhood. The shelves are filled with a thoughtful mix of new releases and hidden gems, and the staff has that rare gift of knowing exactly what to recommend without ever making you feel rushed. There's a quiet hum of community here, like a shared love letter to books. It's more than a place to shop it's a piece of Fort Greene you carry with you after you leave. A true neighborhood treasure.

AlthoughI live over fifty blocks north, I decided to visit Three Lives & Company on West 10th Street and i immediately fell in love with their beautifully curated selection of books. They have an inviting children's section and an impressive areay of travel books. And while they don't have the largest selection of every novel rver written, they do hsve n excellent fiction section with my favorite authors. And they also have all the newest best sellers. Three Lives & Company is reminiscent of the wonderful small bookstores that used to exist in Manhattan but were mostly put out of business by the huge booksellers and they obliterated by the Internet. Fortunately, a few booksellers have not only survived but thrived by offering readers and browsers a chsrming and inviting bookstore that actually makes customers like myself, feel good about paying full price for the luxury of being a customer of Three Lives & Company.

It seemed strange that a place would be called Austin book shop and located on Jamaica Ave, but…read morethen I read it used to be located on Austin Street in Kew Gardens. My first question was what I ask all used bookstores -- did they had a philosophy section, but "very little or no humanities", according to Ray Harley, the owner. "What we do have is Baseball and American history." Both of which they have in abundance. He wasn't kidding. Shelves and shelves of books on the sport -- I mean, if you're into all things baseball, this is a literary treasure trove). In addition to American history. I also found a decent section on Jewish and U.S. Catholic history as well. The store itself was a study in chaos; apparently they were unearthing a lot of material from the cellar, so boxes and boxes everywhere which required some nimble navigation of the stacks. But what was shelved themselves was fairly organized. It's definitely a good place for browsing. Pricing: specializing in old, rare and out-of-print, most books on the shelf that I found were in the $20-25 range. There are a everal $1 carts out front where I found some pleasant surprises. Takeaways (nice haul): - The Mission: A Film Journal by Daniel Berrigan, S.J. -- regarding the making of one of my favorite movies. From the dollar carts: - - America's Lighthouses, An Illustrated History - Diary of a Dead Man 1862-1864 (Ira Pettit, Union Private) - When the Cheering Stopped, The Last Years of Woodrow Wilson, by Gene Smith - "Talk to the Hand" a DOONESBURY compilation I'll definitely be back. Odd hours as it's only open weekends. Tip for those contemplating going: the owner advised to call ahead to inquire about hours, "because I'll never know when I'll be babysitting."
