Astoria Bookshop is one of only two independent booksellers in Queens, originally opened to the public in 2013 by Lexi Beach, a former employee at publishing magnate Simon and Schuster. Visitors can peruse the bookstore during business hours daily, with bestseller and classic novel sections offered, along with special collections such as a Spanish collection and a collection of books related to the borough and city. Regular free public special events are also hosted at the store, including author lectures and signing events in correlation with new book releases. Family-friendly events include children's storytime events and public board gaming nights. Visitors can also browse the store's bestseller collection online and order books through the company's website for at-home delivery.
