Great shop however knocked stars off due to zero acknowledgement from either of the workers for the entire time my son and I were in the store. Walked within 6ft of them both several times as well.spent about 20 mins here. Busy with their own conversation.Wife came in and purchased a giant πΌ and my son added in a few books. Would have purchased a lot more as we are avid readers in our house, not to mention we were on vacation in Atlanta so looking for things to purchase! But theres a B&N less than 5 miles from our home in Texas which isnt any more or less inviting as a big box store.
Lovely little bookshop with a decent size inventory of diverse genres. Nice collection of notebooks made of recycled paper. They have a handwritten book review display I thought was a nice touch. Some accessories for kids including handmade washable lunch bags and soft plush toy animals. Browsing was fun. 10/10 Ill be back to buy.
Quite a few books about traveling and the history of Georgia. They have stickers/postcards/pins that make good souvenirs. Its a fun bookstore to wander through and find fun stuff
Although the owner is deleting bad reviews which violates freedom of speech. This again shows the type of environment this business operates under. Bottom line is the store does not have friendly customer service. The manager is very rude and lazy. Donβt ask for assistance unless you want to be given a eye roll. Now after reviewing some books being sold here. Your store is not safe for children thatβs a very fair and honest review. That would mean any child under the age of 13 should not be allowed to walk and shop this store alone. It is a factual statement that this store is not safe for families and children. Canβt take a bad review donβt go into a business serving the public.
Such a cute and quaint little spot. Great assortment of books and novelties. Always neat and clean. Staff is always pleasant and knowledgeable
The literature section at Posmanβs is the best that I have ever found in a modestly-sized new book store. The selection is carefully curated and includes not only the obvious big-name authors but also rare cult novels. I only wish I lived in Atlanta so that I could dip into its selection on a regular basis!
Love the inclusivity and the love from the staff. (I spoke with Jonas to find a special book that I could not find anywhere else. He was AMAZING!) The selection isnt massive, but I will always support small bookstores before anything like some other chain stores. 10/10 will absolutely be back.
Lovely bookstore in Ponce City Market. They had a great selection of books and book-related merchandise. So glad my family stopped by while we were in Atlanta!
I visited Posman Books at the Ponce city Market with my son who is a Law student and looking for something fun to read after studying. They have an excellent selection for the size, the staff is great. We purchased a couple of books and will be going back.
This is a superb bookstore! However, I love to cook and bought Ron Douglas cookbooks. Both cookbooks do not have photos to show how the dish should look and the ingredients are inaccurate! Ive read the most recent book-Methods To Millions is a waste of money with novice like tips.
This is a truly fun store. great assortment of books, games, puzzles, cards, and unusual gifts. fun to explore, if you visit Ponce City Market be sure to stop here.
I love the atmosphere and employees at Posman!!! I especially love how they do drag story time. They are incredibly kind and inclusive, and always leave me excited to come back :)
My love for books was truly satisfied for me and my children in this store prices are reasonable books are amazing have anything from cooking to sci-fi to fiction to history with a great experience cant wait to take my kids so they can enjoy it
It was a really cute and genuinely great bookstore and my favorite thing out of the whole ponce market.
This is the best bookstore in Atlanta! The staff is friendly and helpful. They have a great assortment of books and other items.
Lovely little bookshop! Well its not that little but not huge either.
Legit bookstore feel, not a big box retailer. Decent variety
Really cool store with great book selection and so much more.
My son and I love this book store. Everyone is always friendly and helpful.
An inviting environment to find the right book for your interest.
Super cute but also super small. Social distancing is hard in this teeny tiny store. The store has some cute local finds. A little bit of everything... great place if you are looking for stocking stuffers or a small host gift. Masks were required, dogs allowed and no dividers between customer and staff when checking out.
Their selection wasnt great for fantasy books, but it was still a cute shop with a great location.
Has a wide variety of amazing cultural, civil & human rights books & trinkets for all ages! Friendly customer service & a multitude of gifts for the educator & progressive parent!
Cute bookstore with a wide variety of choices, including books about Atlanta and its history, outdoor travel, and more.
Quaint little bookshop. Good selection. Super friendly staff.
Lovely little place. Employees are very nice and happy.
They have a wonderful selection of books, gifts, trinkets, pens, etc. The stagg is incredibly pleasant and helpful!
Great space, awesome collection of books and kid materials! A little busy for Covid standards but everyone had on a mask!
Great place to find fantastic books.
Cute little bookshop, with an interesting collection of books.
Fun eclectic book shop! Always a great place to find a fun gift last minute.
I love the variety of books and reader related items
This book store is cute and they have great cards. Highly recommend checking it out.
Very organized bookstore! By the way, Ron Douglas books are pure fluff and a waste of money including Methods To Millions.
Friendly clerks, interesting collections
Should not be classified as a bookstore. Very small and filled with mainly junk with political rhetoric.
Love it! A real bookstore.
Adorable bookstore with tons of cute gifts, and of course, a great selection of books.
Excellent. Gave great ideas
I got tickled by the sign out side the shop. It said stop in and say hi. So I did. And the first employee was organizing books. I am grinning, waving my hand saying hi! He smiled big. I told him the sign out side said to come in and say hi. So I did. He laughed. And asked if he could help us find anything. The shop is cozy, staff super authentically friendly, and I will return. I thank you.
A book lovers dream shop. I love supporting independent book stores. They have the latest bestsellers as well as blank journals and a childrens section
Great bookstore, a lot of nice variety packed into an intimate space. Staff is great. Location is awesome.
Great little bookstore. All the latest books. Great selection of African American books as well.
Awesome little bookshop with lots of selections.
Very beautiful, exciting and interesting with almost items in this book store. Decorative nice and easy to find for customers. I see a man at station and think owner, he nice and kind
I prefer small boutique book stores over the bug chains like Barnes and Noble. The staff actually read books in the smaller stores and want to help. When I buy books they are my first stop before ordering online.
Posman Books is such a cute and welcoming bookstore! Every time I come to Ponce, I just have to come here! Its impossible for me to walk out of there without a good book or some cute pins. They offer so many different genres of books and have lots of cool knick-knacks if thats more your speed. I highly recommend people to visit :)
Great store, has a wonderful selection of classics and has something for everyone.
Huge book nerd here. Nothing beats the feeling of walking into a good book store, and Posman doesnt disappoint. Being at PCM, they could easily just offer the minimum, be a mediocre book store, and probably do just fine, but they dont do mediocrity. I love the feel of this store; so vibrant and welcoming. The layout is great, although a little overwhelming with the amount of people on busy days, but theyve handled this inevitability in a great way. Their displays are always on point, up to date, and rotated regularly. Theyre always stocked up with the newest releases, and they always have great recommendations of older books as well. I absolutely love this book store!
Lovely small shop found a good book here
We love this book store, every time we are in Atlanta we make sure to stop in, we always find something interesting to buy. The staff is always very helpful & friendly.
This is what a bookstore should feel like. Posman Books is just so... quaint... but huge... if that makes any sense! It has that tiny, independent bookstore feel but has a huge selection that rivals the book sections of larger big chain stores.The staff was very friendly and my payment was quick. They accept credit cards, which I suppose is expected, but I was doubtful because its such an old-feeling shop.Overall, I love this bookstore and wish I lived closer so I could frequent it more!
Lots of really cool, whacky books available!
Great Place! I highly recommend!
Latest best sellers...
Came in 15 minutes till close looking for tarot cards because Mystic whatever was closed, was super excited to find several sets to choose from... went with the cat deck ^.^ I will definitely be back when I have at least an hour to look at all the other cool books, writing, and drawing stuff.
Great people small selection
I was drawn into this store upon seeing the jellycat plushies in the windows. I never imagined I would see any jellycats in a physical store. And then they have a great selection of sci-fi and horror books. I am always hunting for good horror thats not Stephen King or the like.
Nice little book store with a good selection. I liked how the shop owner had things organized.
I happened upon this pleasant store and left with a bag of goodies. Not only are the books clearly chosen with great conscious, many of the newly popular books are displayed alongside a handwritten note of recommendation. The location contains not only books but puzzles, planners, stickers, erasers, enamel pins, patches, and toys. Leif was friendly and happy to help customers.
Pretty good selection
An interesting book store. I think its worth taking a looking around. Has some classics and a bit of everything. Some neat knick knacks and what not.
Great place for unique puzzles, books, and notebooks.
This bookstore is incredible! Amazing selection of books, journals, and all things children need to embrace their sense of wonder and love of learning. The location at Ponce City Market has fabulous events that turn our local independent bookstore into a cool spot to chill on a Friday night.
Stumbled upon this store while waiting for our car to be washed across the street. Very cute and great prices. I did notice that the space is small and they have a lot of inventory that goes beyond books. As a result, it does feel a bit cluttered in there, and I feel like a person using a wheel chair might have difficulty navigating the store. However, I will definitely be back as I dont feel we were able to adequately explore. It is 2 and 5 year old approved as well.
Cute little book store in the Ponce City Market. They have a really nice varied selection of hardcover and softcover books, little trinkets, and souvenirs. Picked up a cute post card for my auntie and a new book for my plane ride home.
Every time I visit Ponce City Market I always try to make a stop by this bookstore. They have an excellent selection of books that are organized in a clear fashion throughout the store. The staff have always been super nice and appeared to really enjoy working there. I also enjoy the pins, magnets, and other little knick knack objects they have between the tables of books.Definitely worth the visit if you are in Ponce City Market!
I love this little bookstore. They have such a unique selection. Its a great place to find gifts too!
Super cool books, cards, book marks, poems, great gift shop!
This shop is well stocked with new and classic books as well as employee recommendations. Evidently for these they only keep one or two of the recommendation in stock, so if you see it on the display ho ahead and grab it! While checking out I was drawn to several local gifts such as the rip murder kroger sticker and the person at check out dropped a somewhat catty line to the effect of Youre the best impulse shopper weve had today. Please dont say this to customers. Its not a neutral or positive statement. I still checked out but it was followed by immediate buyers remorse.
It was a good experience, at first. The owner and I engaged in friendly conversation, until I mentioned the company I work for, at which point he proceeded to bash the company relentlessly and borderline insult me. I just wanted to learn about and buy a few books. We were having a really nice interaction before that, and I attempted to gracefully move past the topic, but I couldnt believe his lack of couth--he just kept going on and on in the direction of negativity. Needless to say, I will not be back, and I do not recommend.
Book stores were a dying breed but they are back and Posman is a great addition to the PCM retail group. They have a wonderful and well curated offering of books and toys for kids. Visit for the drag queen reads once a month, that is outstanding.
This bookstore always has the coolest things. From buttons to magnets to puzzles, not to mention the huge variety of books. I always enjoy stopping by here and seeing whats new.
There for Drag Queen Story Hour with Edie Cheezburger. We love the bookstore, great selection, fun events, incredible staff. Only trouble is dealing with Ponce City Market on the weekend. So many people and impossible to find parking. Still worth it for a fun time and unique book selection, though.
The most dangerous store ever! It was hard not to want to buy something in there. From souvenirs to childrens books and activities to arts and crafts. Its my new favorite store in Ponce.
Great local bookstore and gift shop. They have my favorite selection of cards from local creators: thank yous, birthdays, just because ... Their staff is very friendly and not pushy. You can wander the store and never feel pressured to buy, but will see plenty of things youll want to buy if youre an avid reader.
Cute store.
Classics & best sellers. Cute kids section. Helpful staff.
Small but a good selection. Loved the stationary and cards. Great kids section. I could die there lol.
So many amazing books for sale here, and prices are fair!!
A very classic bookstore. More on the quainter size, yet a very nice selection. Very kind employees. I will happily return next time in area.
Cute little book store with loads of quirky toys and ATL knick knacks/ souvenirs.
I love this place because they dedicate a full table to Penguin Classic Deluxe books. Theyre my favourite collection, and this is the only place I know that has them all together instead of sprinkled throughout the fiction section.
Gorgeous store, great selection
Great selections and superior service
A great place for fun and exciting book for all ages and types.
A small bookstore with, from what I noticed, a somewhat large cooking and travel section for its size. For a bookstore this size, they probably wont carry some of the more obscure books. They have some contemporary books, classics and childrens books. This place is like half bookstore, half Hallmark store.
Im so glad I visited! They have a great selection of books, a ton of cute canvas bags, and the employee I talked with was very helpful with selecting a couple of books for me to read. So far I love their suggestions!
If you like sending postcards, this is the place to go. They have several beautiful postcards (drawings, graphic prints) available for purchase.
Its a very nice, clean independent bookstore. Their selection is a little on the small side, but they do carry a lot of the current, popular books. They also have a nice selection of knick-knacks and book accessories!!
Awesome place with different fun kind of books for children and adults with fun toys, stuffed animals, and souvenoirs for young znd old alike that a person can enjoy.
Great book store with good variety and pricing is reasonable. Fun stop to check out if at ponce city market.
