bookthugnation
is a new bookstore/community space that just opened in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The store was started by four independent booksellers who have sold books on the streets of NYC for years. We carry a wide selection of quality used books at low prices. Our focus is in literary fiction, (boasting one of the best
used fiction sections in NYC!) but we also have most categories and types of
books one would expect to find in a used bookstore, as well as a formidable Martial Arts Section.
Along with good books we
also plan to hold regular events and gatherings, including, but not
limited to, author readings, movie screenings, lectures, neighborhood
meetings, kids nights, etc. If you have an event idea for our space
please email us at info@bookthugnation.com, or stop by the store and run it by us.
Why are we doing this?
BTN believes that independent bookstores are an essential part of a
healthy, creative New York City. We strive to be an active community
space that fosters the literary arts in Brooklyn while being a
welcoming place where anyone can walk in, have a cup of coffee and talk
about books.
The store/community space is a collaborative work-in-progress. Please join us!

BTN is dedicated to our friend, and original Book Thug, Tim Mumford.
