"Butterscotch pudding. Get the butterscotch pudding."

"City secret: This is one of NYCs best used-book stores. Less picked-over than the Strand & better selection than the others (but not nearly as charming as Housing Works). Also great for old jazz LPs."

"Infrastructure, monument, muse, obstacle-strewn bike path, treacherous footpath, platform for photographing Brooklyn and Manhattan, wedding venue. At least this is what the bridge has been for me."

"In a city full of fantastic independent bookstores, this one has the most character. Also, in some kind of superhuman feat, the staff almost always have read everything in stock."
