Wonderful bookstore! Places like this are important. They have a huge book selection on feminism, LGBTQ+ literature, POC authors and children books. I’m so incredibly surprised by the effort to gather the curated selection that they offer. A very welcoming atmosphere as well as a feel of community. There’s lots of sections with staff’s recommendations. Staff is nice and friendly. So happy safe spaces like this exist ❤️

Women & Children First is a truly exceptional independent bookstore. The selection is thoughtfully curated, with a strong focus on literature that uplifts diverse voices and supports women authors. The staff is knowledgeable, welcoming, and clearly passionate about books and community engagement. The store maintains a warm, inviting atmosphere that encourages browsing and discovery. A valuable neighborhood institution and a wonderful place to find meaningful reads for both adults and children. Highly recommended.

A wonderful hub in the community, celebrating many different kinds of writers and artists. I’m incapable of leaving without finding something new. Love the mini print vending machine from Inciardi Prints!
