If you're ever waiting for your spot at Book Culture (this place is so dang packed with hipsters or scene kids or whatever), drop by City Lit! Its a nice, Book Culture store with great suggestions for new reading material. Me and the friend discovered while waiting for pancakes and picked up some nice treasures :) good variety and prices aren't too bad either!

Excellent selection of 20th century philosophy and cultural theory. The staff are generally very helpful. I travel all the way from Brighton Beach just to raid this place once a month. They definitely have someone making sure that the Deleuze section stays freshly stocked.

The one problem is that I've never seen the same faces working there. The only bookstore in NYC I can think of with a similar issue is Blue Stockings, which is entirely volunteer-driven. I'd like to know at least one employee after having been a customer for three years.

Lovely selection of books, a dedicated childrens' area (although I still felt like my kids may have been a little too high energy - they're 2 1/2 and 5 1/2 so there's no way to avoid their intrinsic oscillation - theirs were happy squeals, at least), the idea of being able to sit and write a handwritten card (they have a desk and note paper available in case you'd like to jot someone a note - AWESOME!) is really great, and they carry our favorite brand of stuffed animal ("Jellycat"), and they have an elevator, which makes them stroller-friendly. Great experience!

A nice little independent bookstore on the UWS. The staff picks of the month are usually worth taking a look at. They also have a nice kids section if you're looking for educational gifts.

Independent book store with very friendly and helpful staff. They do not hesitate to help you locate books, or even to pinpoint down a book which matches a very vague idea of what you think you'd like, such as in my case. Located in a beautiful and calming area, this store is a favorite.
