The Tiny Bookstore

I LOVE the Tiny Bookstore and it’s owners. Unfortunately, I was unaware if it’s existence until Covid. The owners are tremendously helpful and courteous. All of my orders have arrived in a timely fashion and I could schedule a curbside pickup time right away. Lea is super intelligent and thoughtful. Her engagement with the community is a blessing. This bookstore is truly an asset to the community and I will gladly purchase all my books from them.

My absolutely favorite bookstore!! I usually purchase my books through their easy to use website. they have a HUGE selection and everything always ships super fast right to my door. I've done their "pick-up" option and it's quick and the staff is always friendly. I've called with questions and the owner and staff are always informative and kind. I would recommend this bookstore not just to locals but anyone in the US with their quick shipping, huge selection, and friendly customer service

Wonderful, local, black owned bookstore. I had a big order for Christmas gifts, I was able to get everything through their website. Curbside pickup of my order was fast and efficient, and easy to schedule. One of the books had been damaged in shipping to their store, they caught it and made sure to get a new one for me. I will definitely be buying from here again!

I love supporting local businesses - and I will definitely be a repeat customer of The Tiny Bookstore! I purchased books for my niece and nephews as Christmas gifts, and am looking forward to purchasing more books for family (and myself) in the future. I loved how personal the delivery was, too! A little note, as well as a postcard and temporary tattoos were included :-)

There’s nothing I love more than a small little book nook of a bookstore. The Tiny Bookstore is a diamond in the rough of the Pittsburgh suburbs. The owners Bill and Lea are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. If they don’t have it, they can or know where to get it. I asked Lea for some suggestions for book ideas for my 8 year old, and not only did she come up with a few series titles, my very picky son loved them! More importantly, the reading level was spot on! The store itself is super cute and cozy (duh it’s a tiny bookstore!). I’ll keep coming here again and again and again! I actually live in the city and rarely travel outside the city limits, but I make it a point to tell people about them. Independent bookstores are just as important, if not more, as a big box chain. They also have a great online service, which has been awesome during Covid when libraries are closed and/or are not doing curbside service. I can’t speak highly enough! You NEED to visit and/or get to know the Tiny Bookstore!!

The Tiny Bookstore staff was incredibly communicative and helpful when I placed an order around the holidays. They kept me updated on the status of the order, and when they realized that shipping through USPS wouldn't get the books to me by Christmas, they dropped off my order themselves - on Christmas Eve! Such wonderful people who really care about their customers. Will definitely be going to them for books in the future!!

I have ordered from Tiny Bookstore multiple times and had a great experience! Quick and responsive service for both curbside pickup and shipped orders. All staff I’ve interacted with have been friendly and respectful. Great selection of books. Highly recommend supporting this local bookstore!

My mother-in-law gave me a gift certificate which came in form of a book! How cool! I ordered my books from them online. They had a great selection on their website and I was able to find a wishlist book I had been looking for for a while (Octavia E. Butler's "Parable Of The Talents"). The books shipped fast with a nice note from the owner. Great experience and can't wait to stop by in person one day!

I have been buying books from this store for the past year and have never been disappointed. I have had to ask for recommendations based on my children's interests and Lea has always delivered stellar lists. I look forward to visiting the store in person and attending a book reading. I will continue to recommend The Tiny Bookstore to all of my friends and family!

Is it possible that books are just better when you purchase them from a small and charming seller? I think so! The Tiny Bookstore offers a thoughtfully curated selection in a wide verity or categories. Browsing the store is an entertaining pastime, but ordering online with curbside pickup or delivery is extremely convenient. I love books and I love The Tiny Bookstore.

Their website was fairly easy to navigate. I bought two books online and they arrived on time and in great condition! I'm definitely buying the rest of the series through The Tiny Bookstore. Despite what their name suggests, their selection is certainly not tiny. I can't wait for the pandemic to be over so I can visit the store in person!

I purchased from The Tiny Bookstore for the first time this weekend and I couldn't be happier with my experience. Shipping was incredibly fast (they could challenge amazon with their speed) and curbside pickup was very convenient. Everyone is very friendly and helpful, and they really go above and beyond! They will be my go-to bookstore.

I love this store. Lea is a long time friend and I truly appreciate her spirit in putting the Tiny bookstore on the map. Her layout is creative and her book selections is unique. She and Bill make a wonderful team !! Amazing what you can do with a "tiny" space. Well done !!

Awesome selections and service. Lea has been so kind and helpful. I discovered The Tiny Book store last spring and have enjoyed buying my books here ever since. They can really get any book you are looking for. Thank you Lea for being a great business owner!

Since finding out about The Tiny Bookstore earlier in 2020, I've ordered all of my books from here and have had nothing but wonderful experiences! I had an issue with my paypal and accidentally ordered a book twice, and the owner contacted me right away and resolved the issue. Highly recommend!

I live almost literally a stone’s throw away in Keown Heights and was delighted to find The Tiny Bookstore nearby. Great little book shop that reminds you of a time when not everything was bought with the click of a mouse or in a giant bookstore where you can’t find anyone for help. And the tea I got with my book was fantastic! Lea is wonderful!

I’d been looking for a US-based independent bookstore so I could have books sent to friends there and this bookstore was recommended by some friends. I completely see why! Super friendly, super knowledgable, great services, and an excellent selection of books to boot. Will definitely be supporting them again in the future.

Highly recommend.

The best thing about this store is getting to support a small business! But only by a margin, because this is such a great shop. The appearance is charming, and I only buy here from now on. I moved from Pittsburgh a few years back, but their online service is fantastic. If I could add an extra star, I would!

We ran a children's book fundraiser and The Tiny Bookstore was more than accommodating! They helped us find titles, contributed to the book drive, and went BEYOND with recommendations. Highly professional, friendly, and community minded. I love it!

My husband and I have ordered books several times from here. They are a small business so turn around time may take a bit longer, but the customer service is stellar. They are quick to respond, courteous, and informative. I will definitely buy from here again and highly recommend this business.
