The wonderful atmosphere combined with the fine selection and book bargains make this a must-stop shop. Creaky wood floors and stacks of great books beg you to spend hours browsing around. Well-stocked bargain tables are an added bonus. Once you shop here, you may never visit a mega-bookstore chain again.

Pros: atmosphere, selection

Cons: not in my city

Editor's Review

This traditional bookstore looks huge, but stays intimate by giving equal attention to local readers and international writers.  See the full editorial review.
