Little City Books

We are a general interest books store with a lovely children's annex in Hoboken, NJ

We opened May 2, 2015. It was a sunny beautiful day in Hoboken. Our lovely Mayor came and cut a ribbon, bought a book, and wore our t-shirt all weekend long. Our other neighbors who are not the mayor came too. We sold so many books! Wow — we said to ourselves as we turned the key in the lock that night and stepped back to look through the big dark windows at all the thousands of books sleeping on the shelves — maybe this is going to fly.

Everything the other booksellers told us is true. It's a lot of work. You meet the nicest people. You meet the most eccentric people. You learn more about your town and about books every day. It's really fun. We are Donna Garban and Kate Jacobs and we love this business!
