The event was well run and we will definitely keep our eye on the calendar for future events.  Parking is convenient in nearby garages.

They do not charge, rather they ask you donate to either The Heroes Journey (nonprofit that has helped Afghanistan refugees and Veterans with PTSD) or Disabled American Veterans.

They got rid of their little wine bar several years ago but have expanded their children's section into a comfortable little nook that is perfect for finding your next best read. They also have the best gift selection for adults and children and tons of unique activity books (perfect for snowstorms like this weekend!). Love, love, love this shop.

Like any small bookstore it works because you can come and work with them for what you need, and make a visit of a walk about to anything else in Vienna.

It is located inside what comes off as an office building. Once inside there the smell of books is in the air. Love that smell! There's a few racks for adult books. There is a great selection of kids books and products. The bathroom is so cute! It's filled with book posters and is very clean.

Store manager Christopher,…read more We stopped by with our son, who wore his motorcycle gear, balaclava and all, as one might wear a shield against a windy day. We had only intended a brief visit, to sip a drink, browse a few books and mostly remained together, a small family wandering among your shelves. (max visit time 15 minutes) Yet one of your employees, your assistant who passed by our son while he was momentarily alone, muttered under his breath, not once but twice, that the face covering must come off. He did not stop. He did not speak directly. He did not address us, the parents. There was no "excuse me," no polite guidance. ONLY muttered judgment. It was a small thing, but in it was a certainty: our son, a minor, had been profiled and treated disrespectfully. When our son brought this to our attention, we were at the café. The same employee continued from a distance, his tone sharp, dismissive, cocky even, claiming he had "told him twice" to remove it. Told him? Excuse me, are you his guardian? And then he declared that wearing a mask to hide your identity in any store is a felony in Virginia. That, by any measure, is inaccurate. The law requires proof of intent of wanting concealing one's identity. Something our son (Wearing ALL his motorcycle GEAR without helmet), calmly browsing with his parents, was clearly not doing. The entire encounter...the indirect comments, the lack of professionalism, the misapplied law, was wholly inappropriate for a minor accompanied by his parents. Staff may be reminded that customers even minors, deserve respect, clarity, and honesty. A little courtesy goes a long way. The statement regarding Virginia law was, quite simply, wrong. It was tossed out as if this law were a blanket statement "felony to wear a mask in a store." In truth, the law is far more subtle, far more sensible than that. It speaks of intent, of committing theft, assault, or some other misdeed while hiding one's face. Simply wearing a mask, with your parents by your side, wandering among books, or shielding yourself against the wind, does not, and never could, meet that standard. And even a store policy, no matter how strict, cannot turn an innocent action into a crime, nor justify rudeness, muttered commands, or the singling out of a child. To claim otherwise is to misunderstand the law entirely. In Virginia, there is no sweeping law that declares wearing a mask in a store a felony. Laws about concealing one's identity do exist, yes, but they are narrow, precise, and bound by circumstance. They speak not of ordinary people, browsing quietly with their families, but of those whose intent drifts toward mischief or crime. -Customers who prefers facts to fiction

Whoever the female cashier was at register #4565. Not a single Hello. She did ask if I had a rewards card, but got frustrated when I tried to search for it. She didn't even do the bare minimum. She didn't offer a bag when it was RAINING HARD and I had purchased more than 3 books . She handed me one after I asked, and then didn't even bag them herself. (You're getting paid to be a cashier, act like one.) Mind you, this is the second time I've experienced a rude cashier with poor, disgruntled attitude.
