    I love going to Da Book Joint. I love going to the store even when it was located on 51st. My goal is to purchase books from local bookstores instead of Amazon. This location is easy to spot right on the corner of 69th and Stony. Parking is free. Lately I have been loving the events. Spifster just had her first ever art reception at this location! She has a artist talk coming up for those who may be interested. I love the variety in events. There is a monthly adult book club meeting. The owner is even looking into starting a Kids book club. I will definitely be back!

    Places like this makes me glad I go for a walk in the neighborhood. I almost never come this way unless I'm in the car so I definitely went by this place many of times but never noticed it was there until my walk. So I have to stop by because it's just drew me in. I love books so it's nice to know that it's a bookstore nearby that I can just walk to. The sells all black own books. I'm definitely looking to up my library at home so I will be coming back to buy books. Also they share size with another business that sells like Shea butters and things and I tried one of the Shea butter samples and it smelled really good, so I'll definitely be buying that as well. The staff was super friendly. It was super chill in there. They told me that they open back in December so they haven't been open long but I hope they stay open for a very long time and I will definitely be coming back.

    It's a very comfortable venue and they're always looking out for their customers and community.

    See all

    Sandmeyer's Bookstore is a gem! Everyone who works there is so friendly and it makes for a great…read moreatmosphere. It feels really cozy inside and I could spend an hour or so perusing the book selection. They also have a nice variety of bookish gifts and cards. The best part is the sale corner in the back where you can find books of all kinds marked down to really reasonable prices. I'll always stop at Sandmeyer's when I'm in the area!

    What a gorgeous location to have a bookstore! Sandmeyer's Bookstore sits in Printer's Row and is a…read morevery lit and airy environment. The selection is not too bad, considering they are recovering from a flood. There are so many titles and a vast array of topics available. I found some classics, fiction, a wonderful selection in their non-fiction area, and translated books. They also provide you with lists of books that have won prizes or coincide with different regions in the USA and the world! I thought that was very helpful. It's a medium-sized store, but their displays are quite prominent. Everything is easy to grab (no ladders or staff needed to get to the high books). All the areas are labeled and it's visually pleasing. The staff was nice, too. Checkout was easy and they were friendly. Prices are standard of paperbacks and hardcovers. You are paying for an indie bookseller (I paid about $40 for two books, which includes tax). I wasn't at all disappointed with the price. They also have a loyalty program for those that are regulars. I really am happy I checked out this spot. It was beautiful and friendly. There was a lot of books and totes to chose from, it was hard not to leave with more in my bag!
