Finding this place and visiting there was at the top of our list when visiting Key West while ported during a cruise. This place was awesome. Not only is it owned by Judy Blume but the staff are super knowledgeable and very friendly. Was a really great welcoming atmosphere. Also who doesn't love the smell of a bookstore?

I got to meet Judy!! I consumed Judy’s books when I was a kid/young adult! I loved them, and I was so excited to actually get to meet her! I would recommend everyone visit this book store and buy one of Judy’s books or one of the banned books she proudly sells!!

Childhood dream come true. I wish I could have met The Judy Blume while I was there, but it was a bucket list moment nonetheless! #IreadBannedBooks

Fun, Quant, bookstore. Judy was not working when we were there so a tad bit disappointed but it gives us a greater reason to go back. Organized and friendly staff. Great variety off books for all ages. A must stop for all!!

Wonderful bookstore in the heart of Key West. Staff are kind & helpful. My husband ordered a book they didn't currently have in stock. If you enjoy a good bookstore, put Books & Books on your list to visit. Judy Blume is co-founder and lives locally. Judy will sign your beloved childhood copies of her books if you bring them in. If she's not there, they'll mail your books back after she's signed them. Of course I had to get a tshirt! Will definitely return on our next trip.
