Books on Third

My niece and I had the best time at Books on Third tonight! We loved how well everything was laid out and how friendly and helpful Shan and Ashby were! Enjoyed the staff recommendations as well as the new Booker 2025 prize and short list winners front and center. I picked Sonia and Sunny and my niece picked The Land in Winter. Note if you go up the stairs between Ridgway Bar and Grille you will get right to it! Charming, charming, charming! Came for the seafood and sunsets and sea and left with the 📚

What a cool spot. Nice local author section, very unique coffee table book selection. I really want that Riva Aqurama book but I imagine it’s a mortgage payment. My wife says it’s decorated so cute, l’ll take her word for it. Excited they’ll have authors speaking, the owner told me Scott Turow is due soon. That whole corner is my favorite spot in Naples and this place is a great addition.

This is the most charming bookstore in the area. It’s spotless, welcoming, and filled with a thoughtful selection of books for every interest. Highly recommend a visit!

What a hidden gem! I was so excited to stop by—especially since it’s an independent bookstore. If you’re visiting for the first time, it’s located above Ridgway Bar; just head up the stairs. The space is absolutely charming, from the cute décor to the way everything’s organized and color-coded. The owners did a fantastic job! They even have a cozy lounge area to relax and enjoy. I can’t wait to go back!

I am so happy there is an independent bookstore in the heart of Naples. Plus, they did it right. The ambiance is amazing and the book selections are varied. Any independent bookstore needs merch and the blanket and totes are Naples coded. Plus, it’s dog friendly. I will be visiting anytime I’m in Florida.

Books on Third is a perfect book shop! It is gorgeous, has an amazing selection of books/gifts and a wonderful atmosphere. The children’s section is adorable and a wonderland for little ones. The owner and staff are very kind and welcoming. It is the most charming shop!

I stopped by Books on 3rd yesterday and really enjoyed it. It’s a small space, and they’ve done an excellent job curating a wide selection of bestsellers, fiction, non-fiction, and a great kids’ section that makes it a welcoming spot for families and locals alike. The collection feels thoughtful, current, and inclusive, with plenty of books that encourage reflection and conversation. Honestly, if more people read these kinds of books, the world might be a better place. If you’re looking for a warm, local bookstore with a well-curated selection, this is a wonderful place to visit!

Someone wrote Books on Third has a nice collection of local author books. I'm a local author who reached out several times, even prior to the opening to offer my services. I hold an MFA in creative writing from Columbia University, I have published two novels and one is in submission. I have connections to several famous authors including Dan Brown. I offered to do a talk about my experience and my interesting trajectory from R.N to creative writer. I gave a book to the event person. I have an award winning novel that is distributed and promoted by Simon and Schuster but I was given a lukewarm reception. Not nice.

My husband I were walking through the market when we found a little stairway - when we went up the steps, we found the cutest bookstore! I was instantly happy! Everything is laid out very well and each section is like its own little world. I could spend hours in here! I ended up purchasing a few books as well as some local chocolates and an adorable bookmark. I think I've found my new happy place!

Friendly customer service and a great selection of curated books. It is great to see the return of an independent bookstore to Old Naples!

Cutest bookstore! Their books and gifts are nicely curated. Women will like this bookstore more than men will, however: it's very girly and pretty with books that mostly cater to female readers and those interested in fashion, classic novels, romance novels, photography, decor and cooking. The history section was very small and not that great but most things are grest for a gift!

Wonderful local book store on the second floor above Tony's. Cute store with a huge selection of local books and authors. Great coffee table books. Nice staff. Very homey and comfortable. Good kids section. Authors book signings. Went to get our book by Liz Malloy signed. Best book store around. Great location off of 3rd st in Olde Naples.

For a newly opened bookstore, visiting Books on Third was an adventure in disappointment. I spent almost 15 minutes looking for the book "Bury Our Bones in the Midnight Soil" in four different sections of the store and received not a whisper of an offer of assistance or recognition. The two staff members, perhaps the owners, maintained their vigil behind the cash counter, perusing sales figures or the staffing schedule or Tik Tok, I don't know. I wasn't alone in being ignored, a small concession. When I left, empty-handed and without the hostess gift I came to purchase, I looked at the store's website outside, where I discovered I could have ordered the book from a 3rd party online provider.
