  • This is store is cataclysmically awesome
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 01/15/09
    I could go on for hours. The incredible selection, the intelligent and hardworking staff...The Corner Bookstore is one of the last gems in corporate America, and the preeminent retailer of all things fabulous. I am somewhat befuddled by the previous reviews, since I have never gone to the Bookstore without receiving a smile along with excellent ...

  • What happened to the store?
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 12/13/08
    Wow, I'm incredulous at the last three reviews before this one. I used to work a block away from the store and I practically lived in the store on my lunch hour. The staff was helpful and friendly and would order any book I wanted if they didn't have it in stock. This manager must be new. Somebody needs to give him a clue before he ...

  • The rudest staff in NYC
    By I love books, 12/01/08
    I was so disheartened after each of my several trips to this bookstore. I wanted to love it as I want to love all small, independent bookstores but the staff here is just the worst. The manager specifically is beyond rude. He is abrupt, disinterested, condescending and just pretty terrible. He has never once been helpful or kind in my many trips to ...

  • Truly terrible manager
    By adorebooks37, 11/12/08
    The manager at this bookstore, not to mention a good chunk of the staff, is so rude that it is nearly unbelievable. I am an avid reader who adores independent, small bookstores like this but am beyond dismayed at the rude and condescending attitude of the manager and some staff there. Some staff are nicer but the tone is set by the churlish and ...

  • Wonderful store, but HORRID staff!
    By yahoo contributer, 11/12/08
    I have been coming to this bookstore for ages and have been consistently dismayed by the awful, rude and disinterested staff-- most notably the manager. He is rude and angry and offers terse replies to questions and is frequently hostile to younger children in the store. I have bee a very financially loyal customer for years now (buying at least ...

  • The Amazing little bookstore
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 06/01/08
    I love the corner bookstore. It is in a wonderful location and should remain standing. It contains great books, and is a wonderful bookstore to use when needed. I also like the fact that you are able to read books when inside, so you can pick and choose. The cat Murphy is really nice, and so are the people that work there.

  • Great!
    By A Yahoo! Contributor, 02/17/07
    The staff can be a little unfriendly at times. And they are a bit understaffed. A very cozy and "homey" enviornment. With cute, fat cats roaming the shelves, this store is great for kids and adults.
