There is paid parking lot right outside the front of the store with several other areas for parking nearby but we walked over from MARTA and it was a breeze. The store is huge! There are sooooo many books and I love the layout. The signage makes it super easy to find what you're looking for and the staff are super helpful. The bookstore itself is so inviting and the kiddos loved playing in the play area where they could interact with other kiddos, read a book, and play with trains. There is a wide selection of books for allll sorts of folks, genres, ages and I appreciated how inclusive the selections were.

I met a friend here on a Saturday evening, and it was quiet in the best way. A few people sat at the bar, a couple others on the couches, and I grabbed an open couch tucked in the corner--perfect spot. I've been on a sobriety journey, so I already knew I'd be ordering kombucha after checking the menu online earlier. What I didn't realize was that the other non-alcoholic option listed was actually a wine--and wow, it was good! It reminded me of a Pinot Grigio. Honestly, I could've had another, but without the buzz, I figured one was enough. I'm giving four stars only because I'd love to see a few more non-alcoholic wines or beverage options on the menu. Other than that, I absolutely loved the space and the energy here. I'll definitely be back--this is one of those places you go for the feels.

My Review of the Book Crook: Waiting 48 Years to Leave This Google Review…read more On my 13th birthday decades ago, my parents opened a small new-and-used bookstore called The Book Trading Post here in the Atlanta area. They ran it successfully for 12 years. My father had connected with Alex, the owner of the original Book Nook on or near North Decatur/Clairmont, who promised a great variety of around 30,000 books. What arrived instead were massive duplicates -- 30 to 50 copies of the same titles. It was a horrible, upsetting experience that stayed with my father. At the time I was 13 and didn't really know what it all meant -- I just knew he was upset. My father passed in 1981 after chemotherapy and radiation at Emory. Recently, I brought in a large personal collection to the current Book Nook Decatur location -- over 130 albums plus many books, including rare 1940s-1960s sci-fi classics and a signed copy of Miracle in Atlanta. As a longtime collector of coins, books, comics, historic color brochures, and more, I knew the value easily exceeded $500, likely more. I first spoke with the manager on March 25th of this year. He gave a standard percentage quote and left a message. When I returned on March 27th to collect payment, I received just $70. They kept all the books -- which filled the entire counter on the right when you walk in -- and roughly half the albums. I left with two small suitcases. Walking around the store afterward, I saw their selling prices and realized they stand to make a substantial profit. I spoke with the manager (Doogie, like Doogie Howser from the 1980s show) and then with an employee named Scott, who has been there for years. I shared some of this backstory. Scott was pretend friendly and even suggested I didn't really need to write a bad review. That conversation left me feeling extremely uncomfortable, and that discomfort is exactly why I decided to write this review now. The owner is very old (likely in his late 80s or early 90s) and does not come into the store. I felt the manager was dishonest in the way the offer and process were handled. It all felt like history repeating itself in the worst way -- like a scene from Red Dawn: "Avenge me." In the end, I just took the money to be done with it. This isn't just about one low payout. Most people don't know the old story of The Book Trading Post and that first disappointing deal with the Book Nook. Now the full 48-year circle -- from my parents' store in the 1970s to today -- is part of the public record. If you have anything of real value (books, albums, collectibles), think carefully before bringing it here. Get your own realistic expectations and consider other options. P.S. For comedy purposes, I've officially renamed this place The Book Crook.
