Reviews to Bookends
I enjoy the small bookstore atmosphere and shopping for books with my daughters. The celebrity Signings are always fun. I especially like when they have Q &A sessions. My only gripe is sometimes it feels a bit rushed. And the downstairs area where we wait for autographs can get really warm--need better ventilation down there.

In poor taste to have a book signing with Theresa Guidice, especially since you must purchase a book to attend the event. The famous NJ/Government tax scofflaw hawking her book after committing a crime and Bookends is right there to promote this felon. I really hope the IRS sends a representative to the event, as she's been known to charge cash for an autograph and then stuff the money into a silk bag.
Shame on Bookends, there's got to be a more honest and deserving author out there, you just don't seem to care anymore.

This establishment is open after 600pm only one day a week. Is this a bookstore or a bank? The information on their website is often inaccurate. They don't reply to emails in a timely manner. They treat you like cattle while you are waiting to get a signature from a B list celebrity on a book they overcharged you for.

Great local bookstore. Not many like these left. They get great authors for signings as well.

I have been to this Bookends location twice for 2 separate book signings. The first was Joan Rivers in June 2012 and the second was Kendall and Kylie Jenner just today as I write this. (6/3/14) Everything was fine with the way they handled the Joan Rivers event but with the Kendall and Kylie event everyone was rushed. I wanted to talk to the girls for another minute or two but I was forced away after 1 maybe 2 minutes but it felt like 20 seconds. I don't think its professional to rush a person when talking with the celebrity (s) signing his or her book. I understand you cant be there for 5 or more minutes but 2-3 minutes maximum should be allowed. The only other thing I did not like about the Jenner event is they didn't allow fans to take 'posed pictures' with the sisters.
