“The store has a lot of character and a fascinating history, which makes it quite interesting to visit. However, there’s a musty smell that might be off-putting to some. Also, be aware that they charge an extra fee for credit card payments, so it's definitely a good idea to bring cash if you want to avoid that extra charge. Despite these quirks, it’s worth checking out if you appreciate unique shops with a bit of old-world charm. Overall, this is a very cool town with rich history.”
“The staff here are AWESOME. I got Covid when I was in Shephardstown and hadn't packed enough books for staying longer to isolate, and I also didn't have a car. Four Seasons helped me out by finding things on my to-read list (including checking all their used stock), recommending additional titles based on my interests, and then dropping them off locally. They were so helpful and communicative. I hope to make it back and actually browse in person some day. THANK YOU Four Seasons Books!”
“Typical of other university bookstores, Shepherd's allows students a one-stop visit to easily collect each semester's supplies. While having books is a given, the bookstore goes beyond that. They also offer school apparel, basic dorm essentials, a variety of personal care items, go-to technology accessories such as storage devices and printer ink, and a lot more. Browsing is easy as sections are clearly labeled, with items being where you'd expect.”
