“Fantastic independent bookstore with something for everyone in the family! Smart, energetic staff and a great vibe! A must-visit shop in Boston's MetroWest.”
“Huge store with a decent selection of books, a kids area, teen section, small amount of women's/baby clothing and a gift section.
It felt like there was a lot of unused space and I was walking amidst a dying bookstore. I really hope that's not the case.
I did find myself wishing that the staff picks had blurbs as to why they liked those specific ones and what books they found similar.
The cafe is unfortunately closed on Sundays.”
“Go check out this lovely little bookstore! The staff are nice and they host events. Large kid section. Toys and a few planners/notebooks, too. If you're interested in keeping your local businesses alive or just a gift for that bibliophile in your life, this is a solid place to walk to down Main St.”

“Loved this cozy and welcoming bookstore! Great collection of children's book and a few shelves for adults. There are several knick knacks and interesting items like tea, cards, journals, magnets, and literary toys that would make great small gifts. Whimsical and beautiful decor inside that lends to a fun and magic atmosphere.”
“Framingham State is a place that has its quirks, just like every other college. I transferred here from UMass Dartmouth, which was quite a depressing and isolating campus feel. Framingham, to me, is very warm, inviting, and traditional while utilizing modern technology across campus. The classes are generally very small and most professors are very well versed in their subject matters, so although challenging, a lot of information is to be learned through practice. Yes, there is limited parking due to the size of the campus itself, but there are lots for everyone. Just be sure to ask questions on where to park and obtaining information from campus police in the correct manner. Most people are very friendly and share really great stories. It makes me sad to see people digging on the school for minor things. There is a lot to be said about the first normal school in America. There is a lot of history and heritage at the University that should be appreciated. This was one of the best experiences, as I've fostered connections with diverse and caring people. I would highly recommend giving it a chance before bashing on the minor issues that are often resolved just by communication, such as Wi-Fi, parking, and other things.”
“I was looking online for a book for the fire academy and was checking to make sure that the book wasnt going to ship from India and damn... they were local... and right down the street from the stow fire academy. They had exactly what I was looking for. Ill be checking there for all of my books from now on”
