Reviews
"This is a beautiful shop with a kind, knowledgeable shopkeeper (owner?) who seemed truly interested in providing and receiving book recommendations. Come for the cute storefront and excellent curated selection, stay for the literary gossip."
"I wish I loved closer to Dubuque so I could visit this lovely bookstore more often, but perhaps it's a blessing to my wallet that I do not. :) River Lights is such a welcoming bookstore with employees you immediately connect with. It's obvious that they love books and love talking with books, and the minute you walk inside, you feel welcome. While the selection is small, as most independent bookstores are, I've always found something I wanted to buy -- as well as titles I might not otherwise have known about. It's a great mix of popular titles, children's books, graphic novels, nonfiction, Iowa authors, etc. You never feel rushed while you are there, with comfortable seating up front and a large table in the back for you to sit, chat with friends, and flip through the books you plan to purchase."
"A nice hometown bookstore. A decent collection and the staff is so friendly and helpful. They have several book clubs the meet there and they are always willing to recommend a selection. Beautiful shop."
"Always a helpful smile and fellow book lovers to make suggestions based off of your already read list of books. I love how they show appreciation for teachers, different customers, and also give back to the community. This shop makes it easy to shop local!!"
"A lovely little local bookstore. Staff was very friendly and had good recommendations. The chalk outline in the floor underneath the mystery section was a fun touch."
