Everyone who works here seems to really knows books . It's refreshing to get actual recommendations. Also, a great place to buy used; they have a decent (and cheap ) second-hand selection!

Jeanne Mccann

Great store ... But ambience leaves something to be desired...clerks talking & laughing at top of their lungs, then breaking out vacuum at 1 on a Saturday. Hard to hear oneself think, never mind read!

Jenna Rose Robbins

One of many indie bookstores in town , centrally located and just a few blocks from the home where Longfellow himself grew up.

Peter Boyce

Great book selection, good local spot

Tara M

Even if they don't have the book you want in stock, they can get it in a couple of days. Faster than Amazon, and still buying local!

Carmen N

Great bookshop with decent selection of used. Also specialty magazines.

Storm C.
