What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"Books on First has such a warm, inviting vibe - it truly feels like the heart of a small-town bookstore. I’ve ordered from them online and my book arrived incredibly fast. Their in-store selection for both kids and adults is wonderful, too!"
"It is the nicest small town bookstore I have been in, and small bookstore haunting is kind of a pass time for me. They have a good selection, pleasant atmosphere, and COFFEE! YES! You can't go wrong with a good book and a strong espresso!"
"Hazelnut latte was really good! The bookstore is very warm and inviting as well as the cashier."
"Cute, cozy bookstore. Very clean and the staff is very nice. I also had an iced vanilla chai latte……..so good!!"
"Such a cozy bookstore that, may I add, has some of the best coffee and tea at a great price! There are delicious bakery items as well, and all sorts of cute extras like varieties of bookmarks, stickers, cards, notebooks, and other items! Definitely check them out!"
