This tiny Upper East Side bookstore has an exceptionally friendly staff that is very much involved with their customers, and was the blueprint for the local bookshop featured in the Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks film "You've Got Mail". Besides offering a plethora of reading material, including an extensive children's collection, this neighborhood meeting spot posts a bulletin board with listings for dog and cat sitters, French lessons and tutors on English composition. Classics, quick reads, best sellers and travel books are available, among other offerings at The Corner Bookstore.
Located in the neighborhood of Washington Heights, is this little bookstore by the corner of the Amsterdam Avenue. The store displays a large number of books in various categories of science, fiction, self-improvement, religion and many more. It is the perfect reading destination for both adults and kids. Portraying more than a library, it is managed by a community of the same name who organize events like book reading, storytelling and debates regularly where people who share the same interests are welcome.
