    Don't judge a book by it's cover. From the outside it seems like one small building but it's surprising how far the building goes once you're inside. I couldn't say the same for their parking lot though, it's not very big. They buy and sell used books and this place has A LOT: books (they also have rare/signed books on the floor and behind the regster), vinyls, and pictures. The front of the store has a more organized setup that label the shelves of what genre and the back of the store is where they keep their clearance items. I liked that they have staff picks descriptions or personal takeaways written on small note cards on the shelves and lots of places to sit around the store, especially in the back. I also noticed a sign on the wall saying you can rent out the clearance room in the back for events which is neat.

    Baskets for browsing!!

    The book revue... I mean, The Next Chapter... is my favorite independent bookstore in the world. Nowhere else have I found such cheap and unusual used books in such great condition. The feeling you get when you walk inside can't be beat... it has that magical old book smell without being dingy or worn down, there's always soft jazz music playing, and there are many big squishy couches and chairs to read in. No matter what time you're there, it never seems too crowded (because of how big the building's footprint is), and best of all, they have late hours!! Browsing for a good book is the perfect thing to do after a nice dinner on Main Street! The staff at TNC are also very sweet and helpful, and I have never been led astray by their book recommendations! Mallory and Emily in particular seem to have the best ones, that align most with my personal taste. There are always knowledgeable staff members around to help you find whatever book you're looking for, and if they don't have it, they always offer to order it for you to pick up. They've recently put up signs above every section that really help with organization too. Additionally, I love The Next Chapter's commitment to their community. Not only are they a book store, but also an event space, a venue for music and art, and a marketplace for local craftspeople. Their weekend and winter markets are always so much fun, and you can always find something unique there.

    Genuinely the best bookstore on all of Long Island!! Has the best vibes and I could hang out here all day. The staff is super friendly and inviting! I love browsing here for hours and it's a great place to support! Definitely recommend coming here. The prices are also extremely fair and the selection is way more than large!

    This place is as close to being Huntington's iconic Book Revue as is humanly possible... great bookstore!

    Book Revue was a staple of Huntington for so long and we were shocked to hear it go.

The bookstore is small, but it doesn't feel messy or unorganized. Each section was labeled and the books were displayed in a way that made you want to pick up each book. The cashier/employee was also very nice. If you're interested in books like Common Sense or the Constitution, there is a small section towards the front of the store where they sell books related to Washington, Ben Franklin, etc. I purchased a mug and bookmark, the mug was around $14 and the bookmark was around $7. Cash and card accepted!

My New Year's resolution this year was to "shop local" and I am so glad I have been. Theodore's Books is situated conveniently in the midst of many dining establishments and plenty of on-street and municipal (free!) parking. I was immediately greeted when I walked in, but I was left alone (thankfully!) to peruse at my leisure. After selecting a book, I recalled wanting another book that I'd heard about recently. I asked the young person behind the counter and she knew the exact title, author, and where in the store I could find it. Easy and low-pressure purchase, great prices, and personalized service. This venue is charming, has all current bestsellers available, and the staff knows how to help find books to fit your needs. I also learned they run a monthly book club and have special events/speakers. How wonderful! For my bookish followers, RUN to this store and enjoy a slice of small-town America right here on Long Island.

    This Barnes & Noble should be embarrassed to call itself a bookstore…read more My group and I were kicked out for no legitimate reason, with zero warning and zero respect. Instead of calmly explaining anything like normal human beings, the staff immediately jumped to hostility and humiliation. We were treated like we were a problem just for being there. The worst part of this entire disaster was an employee named Allison Arlotta. She was openly rude, disrespectful, condescending, and clearly on a power trip. The way she spoke to us was unnecessary, aggressive, and completely unprofessional. It felt like she wanted a confrontation instead of doing her job with any level of maturity. This wasn't enforcing rules -- this was bullying customers. No explanation, no courtesy, just attitude and entitlement. A bookstore should be welcoming, calm, and respectful. This location felt hostile and judgmental from start to finish. If Barnes & Noble allows employees like this to represent them, that says everything you need to know. I will never return, and I strongly recommend anyone who values basic respect to take their business elsewhere.
