More Than Words is a nonprofit bookstore that sells new and used books while supporting young…read morepeople ages 16-24 who are system-involved, including youth from foster care, court-involved backgrounds, housing insecurity, and more. The young people help run the store, learn job skills, and work toward personal and career goals--and it truly shows in the care and pride behind the space. The shop itself is small but mighty. I walked out with four excellent-condition used books (three of which had already been on my TBR list) and somehow also added two cookbooks because... no regrets. Everything was very affordable, and it felt good knowing my purchase was directly supporting youth in the local community. If you're near one of their locations (I believe there's another in the Boston area), I highly recommend stopping in or checking out their online storefront. Great books, great prices, and an even greater mission--absolutely worth supporting.

I love this store in Framingham. Everything about them is customer service…read more Kathy, an associate, stopped by while I was looking at one of the tables of discounted books and we had a wonderful chat. She asked me if I needed help and because of her, I did make a purchase. I bought my nook at the Salem, New Hampshire store and have been at the 3 story store at the Grove in Los Angeles. No matter where you go, customer service is their bible. Unless they have one and I didn't see it, the store is so huge it needs a map with a YOU ARE HERE arrow.

About a month ago, I had a reading with Emma. As it was my first ever reading, I was hesitant and…read morecautious when deciding where to go as I was fearful it would result in a waste of money. Upon arriving at Uplifting Connections, they confirmed my appointment and took my temperature- something I have seen few businesses do. Once I was taken inside the room where my reading would be done, I was allowed to remove my mask as there was a plexiglass barrier and 6ft distance between Emma and myself. For privacy reasons, I will not get into specifics about the things we discussed. However, I can say that before even sitting down, Emma confirmed what was on my mind. It is important to note that this was before giving her my name, age, or zodiac sign. Additionally, she knew things about me that a stranger would never know. Her tarot cards were extremely insightful, and I left my session with a sense of clarity. I highly recommend her, along with Uplifting Connections, to anyone who wishes to see a psychic for the first time.

The service here is always great. Emploees will say hi in passing, giving you the opportunity to…read moreask a question if needed, and there's always someone at the info desk in the middle of the store. But for the most part, they recognize that a solid browse is usually needed before you'll be ready to check out up front. I admit, once I find my books I always (always!) take a right turn before checkout to do a solid walk-thru of the papers, calendars, binders, candy- everything yu need to have cool, pretty things on your desk or bookcase. And theyy get me every time. I ike that you can put a book aside to pick up and pay in store. Some times I'm not 100% sure that I'm buying the book I want, so it's handy to not have to pre-pay for a pickup. The selections on the tables up front are usually fairly interesting - mysteries, current releases, popular titles. There's always something there that I haven't read, or a great gift idea. Yep, people still like to give and get real paper books! While I keep a dozen or so ready-loaded on my Kindle, my first love are books that stay with you and I'm always gifting one to someone who I know still reads, or is learning to read, or doesn't know that they need to READ A DAMN BOOK! Because I'm only there to help! Go. Listen to a story time. Attend an author event. Or get a Starbucks at the counter and grab a table. There are many worse ways to spend some time quieting your mind.

Honestly, this is refreshing as corporations understaff and stress their employees.

Yes, you're paying more for a book than you would on Amazon but this is the opposite of a greedy corporation who screws everyone. This is truly local and I'm lucky to live 20 mins away.
