Reads & Company — Local services in Phoenixville

The biggest indie bookstore I've even seen in a quaint, tiny town. I couldn't wait to get my hands on some new books today. So, I popped down to Reads & Company to see what they had. The selection surprised me.

Alice Walker? Check. Barbara Kingsolver? Check. Anne Lamott? Check!

I was in bookworm heaven!

Clean. Well lit. Friendly owner working behind the counter. I think he name was Jason. This place is wonderful!

Lots of classics. Progressive literature like LGBT table. Tons of new publications. Cutest little children's book section with a rocket ship that I had to resist sitting in because that would have been a little too weird.

Fantastic bookstore! They have a great selection of everything from the latest releases to timeless classics, and are happy to special order anything they may not have in the store.

Always a delight to visit this shop, whether to browse aimlessly, ask for reading suggestions, or to pick up a much-anticipated new release. Looking forward to many...

Reads and Co. is a beloved family-owned bookstore with something for everyone. Our whole family enjoys shopping there and finding books for all ages and genres. My elementary-aged son especially loves their selection. The staff is consistently friendly and lovely, always making us feel welcome. They recently went above and beyond when a family member left their phone. The staff found it, charged it, and helped us retrieve it. This exceptional service truly impressed us. Beyond books, they even have fun tchotchkes. Reads and Co. is more than a store; it's a wonderful part of our community. We highly recommend them for their excellent selection and outstanding care. We eagerly anticipate our next visit to this fantastic bookstore. Five stars for...
