Book Stores near Pittsfield, MA

“Aisles and aisles of beautiful books full of wonder and magic! Side by side with Starbucks famous pumpkin spice latte and yummy snacks, and I'm in there for hours. The staff are all knowledgeable, patient, and kind. Then add in the fact that although they sell books, no one tries to sell you books.
Being a mom of three, a wife, and an honors student it's hard to study at home sometimes. Barnes n Nobles and Starbucks' combined make for the feel of a mini get away and still provides the perfect study haven.”

“What an absolutely wonderful place. This delightfully quirky bookstore rambles across two buildings: the main shop, which is already packed full of treasures on multiple floors, and the newly-completed seasonal "book mill" building (built right over the water) which the owner describes as being intentionally disorganized to encourage browsing. I failed to take many pictures because being in here is such a fun, engrossing, woodsmoke-scented experience: my phone stayed in my pocket for pretty much the duration. Everything from the smell to the wonderful stop-motion short film playing in a little cubbyhole to the lovely owner and employees and the interesting rooms to discover (there's almost an entire floor devoted just to massive photography books!) is like a kind of amusement park for book-lovers. The books are also priced to move, which is great. I 100% plan on going back to West Stockbridge largely just to bask in the atmosphere of this bookstore again.”

“Great collection of books. Owner is knowledgeable and well connected. Attended a book reading by 3 of the 14 authors that contributed to Fourteen Days. Fun and the Git Lit”
