A delightful shop perfect for all types of mystery fans! I stopped by today for the first time and look forward to future visits. The shop is wonderfully stocked with various styles of mystery books and decorated beautifully. I highly recommend visiting the shop if you’re in the area.

A nice little gem located just a few blocks away from Princeton University campus hosting all the mysteries and thrillers one could wish for. Small, cute and quaint. It provides nice collections of best sellers as well as local publications.

Total home run. The business hours are brief, but if you get a chance to stop by when they are open, this is a gem of a mystery book store. Neat as a pin, and nicely laid out, you could spend an hour pouring through their selection. As the saying goes, I bet you couldn’t buy just one! No way you can go wrong.

Great local niche bookstore. I go there every time I'm in the area.

make sure to call before you go. I have now been there twice during what they say are opening hours just for them to be closed unexpectedly. I understand this is the nature of a small business and I'm still excited to someday go inside but it's just a little misleading to have specific hours on Google instead of a "call for business hours" or something similar.
