Bookish Atlanta

I love love love the way they label all the LGBTQ books with tape on the side! It makes them easy to identify in all the sections which is awesome!! The owner is so amazing and we always have great conversations! Also incredibly knowledgeable and helpful. The selection is on the small side BUT they can always order anything you could possibly need/want. I like they also have a small selection of used books as well which is nice for those who don’t want to pay full price! Also their posters, pins, stickers etc. have such a variety that it’s always something new to find! I recommend this store to anyone just wanting to have a good chat about books or even just a good browsing time. The tea and hot beverages is also a nice touch for the winter time and my partner was really happy about it! (dairy and caffeine free options!)

I loved this place immensely. The posters, the art, the stickers, all pure perfection. It was a wonderful little paradise full of queer books and words against oppression. Will visit again when I get the chance. 💜

The best way to spend a rainy day? In an indie bookstore, of course! Being new to Atlanta, I have been looking for a new local indie and I have found it in Bookish. The staff were welcoming and helpful, the selection was varied and up to date, and I was surprised to find a selection of used books available as well. I’ll be back soon, I’m sure. 5/5 stars.

Bookish is exactly what you want your corner bookstore to be. They've a great curated selection, focusing on books from folks from whom we hear less. The service is friendly and helpful, and conversation flows easily. This is strictly a bookstore. Coffee? No. Magazines? No. Books? Yes! There's a small parking lot in Back. Wheelchair access is doable, but tight. This place is worth visiting and supporting.

I love this bookshop. It’s locally owned, and spending money there puts money back into the community. The staff have been incredibly kind and helpful every time I have gone. If you want a book they don’t have, they will order it for you! Also, a great place for knick-knacks and stocking stuffers.

I initially came to the bookstore to see author Laura Carney speak on her book "My Father’s List." I had a great time hearing the story of how she found her passed away father’s bucket list of things he always wanted to achieve. This lead to her going on adventures and discovering family secrets about his life. The book is a must read! I enjoyed my time at this quaint book store that has a lot to offer, including artworks by local patrons. The store its self is easy to get to. For parking, I would suggest to go behind the building for spots or park on the side street further down.

Staff were super helpful! Loved the bookstore atmosphere. Definitely recommend this bookstore in the East Atlanta area. Support local 🤍
