Adela "BLEW MY MIND" during the Medium Gallery Reading last Friday night at The Green Man Store. Not only did I feel that her readings were accurate but she patiently made it around to each individual person who attended. A very talented and gifted young woman!
I AM Books is an absolute joy. The customer service is absolutely excellent and warm. I never feel pressured by the staff, but supported. I walked in just to look, but the staff was so kind I couldn’t help but make a purchase. One of the best independent bookstores in Boston!
A treasure trove of books on Boston & Italy in English & Italian, along side well choosen gifts for all ages. Go here to be reminded why real bookstores matter. Stay to be immersed in Italy and leave with your next book to read and the memory of a good experience.
Love this bookstore. Fun to browse thru the Italian-American authors & the staff picks. Cute gift items in the store too. Great gifts for family. Friendly and helpful staff.
Everything you want in a bookstore without the massiveness of Brandon & Gary. Their used selection is pretty decent and their new books area is large. It's across the street from Bostonduh so expect it to get packed, especially at the start of a semester. Staff is friendly, store is well organized and clean.
One visit in and I am a fan of I AM books. I came on a specific mission for a children's book as a gift but will definitely be back for myself. The kids section and what I saw elsewhere is a really well curated collection of good reads and the small bookshop ambience is everything you want out of this cozy North End gem.
Great service. Expensive like the North End is. Used books could be less expensive. Great selection of Italian American books.
was walking by here at end of a holiday in 2015. Had a delightful chat with the owner. he knew his books all right. he asked me what was the last book i read, i told him it was "high fidelity" again -he reached down a shelf or two where we were standing and showed me an Italian translation of it.
I always visit this book store when I visit Boston. It is quaint, great selection and knowledgeable staff. If you are in line for North Street Grille it is worth leaving a friend in line while the rest of your party peruses the fine selection of books and gifts at this locally run shop. There post card selection is great too!
Fun to pop in there around the Paul Revere house
