Black Rock Books

"Warm and inviting atmosphere. Several spaces to sit and peruse books. Little cards with book descriptions throughout. Has a stationary/journal area with fun pens also."

"Oh goodness. This is the definition of a charming old house turned bookshoppe. I felt like I must have wandered through the wrong door but every nook and cranny had new delights for the literary type. Including a fine selection of pens and notebooks, suggesting perhaps, you might try your own hand at the thing. You likely have stories to tell! Today I will tell you a story of how I got to visit this sweet spot, whose shop-keeper not only sold me books but also appears to be a local guide on the best local grub-hubs! Don't be made shy by the classy atmosphere, there is kindness and something for everyone here. A gem!"

"Amended review now that I was able to return. Original review: Came by after 12:30 on a Wednesday, a half hour after the posted opening time. Store closed, UPS package and a pair of UPS delivery notices on the door. Probably avoid coming too close to opening time? (Required to add a star rating so I chose 3 since I could not evaluate.)"

"Corrie has crafted a great third space to partake in a love of all things bookish. Come to buy a book and stay for the atmosphere and book talk. Bonus personalized book recommendations thrown in free of charge!"

"I am forever thankful that one of the books clubs I am in had an on-location meeting at this bookstore! What sets this place apart form the rest is the back area which is filled with cozy armchairs and sofas, and is large and open, perfect for meetups. What struck me about the place are the custom made bookshelves- take a look, they are modular, and can expand, and are so cool! I talked to the owner about them- she is lovely, and full of recommendations for you. I couldn't resist picking up a few books, and a few notebooks and pens as well. I am a sucker for accessories! When I first arrive,d I had trouble finding it because it inside a regular looking house- so don't be fooled! It's part of the charm- blending in nicely to a residential neighborhood. Take yourself out to this place grab a book, and read in the back. We need more of places like this, so thank you for being in business!!!"
