The Twig Book Shop

As a book author! I had a wonderful experience here with my sit and sign. They are a great little hole in the wall. You can find all types of books and cute little stuff for your children. It's definitely a place to explore if you haven't before. Very popular place for bookworms.

The Twig Book Shop is such an adorable bookstore located within San Antonio’s Pearl! They have a great selection of books, including a great children’s section, and a variety of other really cute items (including candles, stickers, pins, and cards). The bookstore is very clean, well-kept, and the staff are helpful & kind!!

Cute bookstore in a great location. I was disappointed on the lack of black authors and novels.

After a lovely Fathers Day my daughter wanted to look for a few books. As the adults were waiting and looking at cute puppets (items to purchase in hand) the young lady behind the counter said not handle them or she would call security unless we were planning to buy one. I am a 40 year old service member who could not believe the snide over reaction, and assumption that came out of her mouth. Considering finding one that paired with my pet types she threatened again. Then I said I will not be buying anything, told my daughter that we order her books on Amazon which I did. I spent my money elsewhere. I will not be going back. In my entire life never have I been spoken to like that at a business. NO TACT and disrespectful.

I loved visiting this quaint bookstore. The bookshelves loom up around you so you feel tucked in, nice and nestled into a cozy space. They have a few sections that are packed full with books. Some specialty sections that would be worth sorting through. They also have nifty little gift ideas. I grabbed some unique bookmarks for Christmas gifts. I didn’t get a chance to spend too much time here as I was busy awaiting an appointment, but if you’re at the market or in the area I highly recommend you check it out! Staff is also very friendly and welcoming. It’s cozy, but it’s clean

Twig bookstore is so beautiful and would have so much to offer if it wasn’t for their staff member’s horrible attitude towards clients. When I entered the bookstore I approached an older woman with a gray pixie cut who was sitting behind the desk and asked where she would like me to set my drink that way I could abide by their no food or drink policy. With this, she very quickly pointed to a small unnoticeable table with a sign that had been hidden from my view. “Hurray! Imaginary Confetti everywhere! You know how to read!” She said in a very demeaning tone as she clapped. I cannot speak for the other staff members however this specific person is known to have been vile in the past so I can’t just give her the benefit of the doubt. It was far too early in the day for her to be so hateful. You work in a bookstore please read up on emotional intelligence and learn kindness. Even though I love this bookstore if this is consistent staff behavior I won’t be coming back.

Whenever I visit a new city - or just a new bookstore - I walk up to a bookseller and ask for a recommendation. I read widely and am open to virtually anything. The exercise is to turn me on to things I'd never find on my own. An added bonus is when the bookseller is truly passionate. That was the case at Twig today. Im embarrassed that I didn't get the booksellers name because she was so good. She knew the clues to follow to put 2 books in my hands that I'm excited about and came up with a third as I was browsing, all while taking very good care of the other patrons. To boot, the shop was cute. The non-book merch was appealing. Shopping at Twig was a great experience.

This is a tiny bookstore in The Pearl with reasonable hours. They have a big kid section, lots of knickknacks, cute gift cards, Pearl merch, and a small selection of every category. I like that no one bugs me or follows me around the store. This isn't a fun place to visit during the weekends because you can barely move, but if you can visit during their quiet hours it's really nice to take your time looking at everything. They are always having authors visit so keep an eye out for that. They are excellent at carrying local authors.
