Colleen Kinneary has always been a "buy the book" person in her career. Before opening her bookstore, The Neverending Story in Babylon, Kinneary had worked at museum stores where much of her job involved purchasing books.

Now she's selling them as the owner of her independent bookstore, which opened in January 2024, and where she also offers a well-curated blend of vintage housewares, events and the kind of personalized attention you can't find shopping online or at a national chain.
