We may not be super avid readers but we are definitely avid book buyers (G only buys ones with pictures). There are tons of amazing indie book shops in Brooklyn, whether you’re looking for a new release or the perfect rare find. This week we’ve rounded up our favorites across the neighborhoods we spend most of our time.

FOR:A new zine, colorful stationery & art books galore!

FOR:Used books with character (come with time to browse and no book in mind).

FOR:An amazing selection of cookbooks.

FOR:The most well curated selection of books in New York. PS this shop is owned by author Emma Straub; you can find signed copies of her books here!

FOR:As the the title states: a coffee with your book! PS this is the only Black-owned bookstore in Brooklyn and one of only two in NYC. GO SUPPORT!

FOR:Used books, records, and zines.

FOR:The chance to trade in your old books for new ones...or for a coffee.

FOR:The newest titles to read in nearby Prospect Park.a
