One Grand Books

Such a great and unexpected gem. The gentleman behind the counter was incredibly helpful, and shared his knowledge of the area with me. It's great to know wonderful little bookshops like this one are still thriving. Support local bookstores!

I can only say wonderful, amazing things about Aaron and One Grand Books. I found One Grand because I was anxious to get my hands on some new books after finishing the one I’d brought to our cabin vacation in Callicoon, needing to escape NYC during the pandemic.

I had originally called Aaron to see if he had some of the titles I was looking for, but I was a bit too premature for his Penguin order that he was placing to arrive next week. After being so patient and kind with me over the phone, searching for each title I had asked for, we found one, but he didn’t stop there!

I asked Aaron if he could actually put aside some recommendations he had, and when arriving to the store, he went on a deep dive of some of the ones he thought I’d love based on my requests from earlier - a true gem of a person.

I walked away with four books total!

I’d never received such customer service like that, and it was so fun to discuss books with a fellow bookworm. If you need a book or just want some lovely conversation (also extremely appreciated that he was masked and conscious of the pandemic and the required safety needs), stop by One Grand Books!

Amazing small book store with a great selection of interesting books. Every shelf is curated by a different author on a wide range of topics. The owner was super friendly and knowledgeable, helping me find something I was excited to take home.

Fabulous experience! Aaron Facetimed with me to see the different books that were available and made a few awesome recommendations. He even met me to give me the books (in a socially-distanced way). Included was a lovely note and three perfectly wrapped books. Made my week during this trying time. Thank you, One Grand!!!

I love finding places in small towns where you almost ask “how did this get here” and then forever remember the place by that one little gem of a store. This book store is one of those places. The owner came up with an amazing way to curate a selection of books and keep it interesting by using his background in journalism. It’s definitely worth stopping in, you won’t regret it!

Recently I was browsing in One Grand, when a bartender from a restaurant down the street walked through with a tray of Bloody Marys, for all the shop owners on the street. It's that kind of place. And it's full of great books. And you can browse forever. And they'll order you anything.

The concept is you have the "desert island" books of some interesting people. James Franco and Tilda Swinton are two I can think off the top of my head. Each of the people picks ten books, and they go on the shelves, and there's little recommendations. It's a great idea. It narrows down the selection compared to huge bookstores and makes it easy to find something you really like.

such a lovely and serene place. This is a beautifully curated bookstore by someone who loves books...and the people who write them. Please stop in and look at every single shelf! You will not be disappointed.

Wonderfully curated, beautifully designed book store. It’s rare to have a bookstore experience that’s more informative than overwhelming, more enriching than “what do I pick??!!”.... this is one of those bookstores ❤❤

Fantastic book shop, great variety! The owner is highly knowledgeable and friendly.

Cute collection of unique books
