Such a lovely little bookstore, right on the corner of Verona and Main in a beautiful, old, brick building. A nice selection of really great books, obviously carefully considered and chosen. Nice, helpful staff. As with most bookstores these days, they also sell a bunch of tchotchkes, but these are also well-chosen. One does wonder if, with such a small store, they might better use some of this space for more books, but thats more a suggestion than a complaint. Overall, a great addition to Veronas downtown.

Charming locally owned business. Very inviting to our family. All inclusive selection for all. Not overwhelming to browse and enjoy the space. Upper level is bright, airy and a fantastic site for artists to promote their work. Our first visit left us wanting to return for more treasures. Love the gift items sprinkled throughout the store. We cannot wait to visit again!

The cutest little bookshop! Fantastic selection of childrens chapter and picture books. The bathroom is adorably wallpapered and well stocked with feminist awesomeness. Upstairs is a great studio space featuring a artwork by local artists, young and old! Jane Austen lovers should pay special attention to the special section just for her works and inspired writers!

What an absolutely incredible little store. Me and my girlfriend visited for about half an hour and we felt so at home. Enjoyed the entire experience. Extremely nice employees, namely owner Rye. 10/10 will definitely be coming back regularly.

Kind staff. Great selection of books. Unique gifts. Relaxing area with toys upstairs. Highly recommend.

Kismet is a lovely and magical place. It is full of amazing books and art! It has authors in fiction, nonfiction, and children’s books, and there is a focus on equality and inclusion. The shop is welcoming and as you step over the threshold you are embraced by good tunes and a warm hello. Do not hesitate to visit and shop at this independent bookstore, you will not be disappointed! We will be definitely be back! Thank you!!!

The vibe is fantastic and the owner is so nice!!

Amazing, sweet book/curiosity shop run by Rye, the perfect person for the role. Adorable!!

This is a lovely, homey, welcoming place! Interesting selection of fiction and non-fiction. An art gallery featuring local artists. Cozy seating if you want to read a chapter or two, gifts and more. Love.Kismet. I will be back!

Great selection of books and gifts. Upstairs there is a childrens play area and some local artisans wares.

Very helpful and kind staff. Great selection of books. Neil Gaiman, Diverse Cookbooks, and more. Seriously a great book store for a small town.

Phenomenal bookshop and wonderful addition to downtown Verona! Great selection of adult, YA, and childrens books and gifts (stickers, journals, local candles and tea, plus other things) and a space upstairs with couches and toys for kids to play. Looking forward to spending more time here!

Awesome new book store in Verona with a great collection of fiction books and a large children section. I love the commitment to local authors, artists, and goods.

Wonderful curated selection, neat building, and friendly & helpful staff!

Super fun feel about this place. The worker/owner I believe was also fun to talk to as well.

Really fun. Great books. Artisan products as well. She was ordering books for people who wanted something she didnt have in stock.

Gah i wish this shop had been here when i went to high school in verona! stumbled across while visiting madison and i’m seriously so impressed. it’s now a must-do when i’m in town.

A beautiful bookstore with something for everyone! The owner was so helpful in offering many recommendations to my request for a specific read. So excited this is right downtown Verona. I can’t wait to finish these books and come back for more!

Wonderful bookstore filled with adult & childrens books. Additionally they have lovely gifts (notebooks, pens, stickers, pins, stuffed animals) and local art upstairs.

Rye, the owner, is WONDERFUL! Its a great local space with so much to offer. 10/10 recommend to everyone to stop by for books, or even just to explore!

Fantastic variety of books and gifts plus art for sale and a lovely kids play area. What a great local treasure!

This wonderful book shop and is a great cozy stop to find your next read or to peruse local art displays in the upstairs gallery. The owner was very helpful in ordering books she didnt have in stock and has a wide array of other local goods like soaps, school supplies, and home decorations. You can enter from either County M or Verona Road. The building was originally a family house and having the old brick lined with bookshelves makes it feel like a home-away from home in the middle of Verona. Would recommend for any of your literary or artistic needs.

Great small local bookstore. Very fitting in the area

Lovely place, with some great books, friendly staff and a play upstairs

A beautiful small bookstore with something for everyone from childrens to adult non fiction to used books and artsy gifts its a joy to shop here. The collection is not huge but what is available is a carefully curated selection of current and topical reads as well as beautiful editions of well loved classics. Worth the trip to Verona.

I LOVE this bookstore its so cute and there is a great selection of books and gifts and a beautiful upstairs that displays local artists. Its heaven, I go whenever Im in town!

Beautiful place. Great deals. Nice staff. Support Independent bookstores!

Sweet little books store! Loved the childrens section. Definitely will be going back.

Kismet Books is a must-visit! I had a wonderful time perusing the great variety of books, cards, puzzles, notebooks, artwork, stickers, pins, etc. Theres something for everyone there and the owner is a delight to speak with! I highly recommend a trip to Kismet Books the next time youre near Verona.

10/10 a great place to buy books and even local artists art work! Very friendly environment and the owner was pleasent to talk to as well!

Idyllic, lovely bookstore with excellent book taste. Loved chatting with the owner too!

This bookstore is so fun and has a great selection including some used books! I was looking for a book for each of my kids and managed to find one that matches each of their personalities perfectly!

The perfect setting for a bookstore! You must visit when you have a chance! New books, used books, bookmarks and gifts! Be sure to pick up a bag of tea while you are there to sip on for the snowy months ahead! A must stop for the holidays!

Cutest shop around! Mostly new books but some used as well. Artsy gifts and an upstairs full of local artists work. Great customer service, too!

Such a lovely place! Cozy atmosphere, excellent selection, support of local artisans, and a wonderful owner to chat with! We will be back time and time again!

Baller bookstore! Owner, Rye, is incredibly welcoming and the space is a bookworms paradise. Book selection is diverse, local, and purposeful. Take the trip to Verona - its worth it.

Great selection and love the space. Wide selection of books, stickers, and other small gifts. Looking forward to going back.
