I Love You So Much Books

I Love You So Much Books, also known as ILYSM, is a bookstore specializing in curated used books, with new books available as well. The shop grew out of a park-side pop-up that sold at events in Richmond, Washington DC, and New York City before its Brookland Park Boulevard storefront opened in February 2025.

The store is woman-owned and is run by founder Mariela Gavino. Customers can special order books for pick up, and the shop sells gift cards. Private events and book clubs are currently paused, and the store does not buy books. Regular hours are Tuesday through Sunday, with Mondays closed.
