Books Are Magic sets up Booth at the Brooklyn Book Festival's Literary Marketplace with the National Book Foundation, selling 2026 National Book Awards Longlisters and limited edition merch. Buy two or more books and get a free Team Book tote, with raffles happening throughout the day.
Tightly curated shelves, strong staff picks, and a kids corner that turns browsing into an actual occasion. Every section feels assembled by people who read obsessively and want to pass that same impulse along. Books are treated less like inventory and more like a living recommendation system. Everything on the shelf feels like it’s there for a reason.
