    My 7 year old and I popped in for the first time yesterday and we were there for about an hour. She was looking through all the choices and we had a chair to sit in and discuss what she would like to bring home. It’s a very inviting shop with many choices organized neatly by genre. We ended up purchasing 6 books to read together and are making plans to return. Highly recommend

    I stumbled across the bookshop by chance and was as much charmed by the space as the affability of Evie. She was incredibly generous with both her time and knowledge to help recommend me a book. Further, she also ably helped with a few specific requests of mine. Having a background of my own family bookshop, I am sensitive to when a space has that rare combination of invite and intrigue- The Munich Readery certainly abounds with this.
