What a wonderful store! Courtney and her fabulous crew hosted a book signing for Gulf Winds Track Club's Kevin Langston and his book 67@67. From start to finish, Courtney took care of all the details and made us feel like VIPs. The bookstore is a marvelous place, not only to find books but also for unique gifts and stationery. I will return to Midtown Reader, and I will recommend it to my friends and family members. Thanks for a lovely evening and for being so responsive and caring, Courtney!

A cozy and calm gem in Tallahassee! Came here to study with some friends and was greeted with a wonderful experience worth a lot more than that. Their coffee was wonderful and perfect for someone with a sweet tooth, and their pies are a great experience to try. I recommend trying any of their coffee with strawberry flavoring. I got their blueberry pie and a white mocha/strawberry latte. Yum! Additionally, the crowd this bookstore/cafe brings in is wonderful and pure! I completely urge you to try this place once, because you will immediately want to come back. I am so glad I found a “third place” such as this!

I love Midtown Reader! They have a great selection and if they don’t have it in store, they can order it for you. The staff is super awesome. I wanted to order a book series but I was sort of particular about which copies of it I wanted. The staff member (I don’t know his name unfortunately) was helpful and took great care to make sure I got the version I wanted. I’m very grateful and definitely recommend visiting Midtown Reader!

My rating of this nteresting bookstore is based mainly on the excellent help I received selecting a book for my grade-school granddaughter. The staff member I was directed to has children of a similar age. The store also offers a good selection of adult titles, mostly fiction, from what I saw. Upstairs you can buy coffee drinks and slices of pie. My blueberry pie and cappuccino were good.
Independent bookshops are the heart of local communities. Visit, shop, and help keep them thriving!
