read the room

is an independent, cosy concept bookstore nestled in Dresden’s Neustadt. It is a little haven where a library, living room, reading nook, and event space come together. Our bookstore is more than a place to buy books – it’s a thoughtfully curated space where literature meets lifestyle. Here, books, art, and everyday beauty come together in harmony. Think stories worth keeping and objects worth gifting.

At Read The Room, storytelling becomes an experience – a collection designed to be felt, not just found. A place to pause, explore, and be inspired. We host book exchanges and gatherings, creating a space where stories are shared, connections are made, and every visit feels like coming home.
