Gothamist says, "Fits in seamlessly with Chelsea's galleries and fancy stroller shops. They specialize in four distinct fields—literary fiction , art , children's books , and translated works." Read more

Classic small bookstore with fantastic selection , where they still take the time to find what you are looking for, or wrap a book as a present. One of the best in NYC.

This is such a beautiful little book shop to hang around. But be careful, you end up buying something!

Nao Miz

Favorite book store in the hood. Wiggle your butt into the children's chair and read books all day! Super friendly/knowledgable staffs too.

Kate Silver

Small, well-curated shop with emphasis on new releases . A wonderful place for intimate author events with heavies -- also at nearby Paula Cooper Gallery . Sign up for their newsletter.

Going to bookstore is like physically materializing in cyberspace. Will be cool in the future

In Chelsea, 192 Books has hardwood floors and a small but brilliantly curated selection of fiction and nonfiction.

Literary heaven.

Attended a great reading, though didn't know you have to RSVP due to limited space. I was able to fit in on the ledge.
