We love cafes and bookstores, and when the two are combined, what could be better? We wanted to…read moregive Still North a try and planned to have breakfast there after browsing the store. Alas, the line was extremely long and didn't seem to be moving that fast, and the seating was packed. We decided to seek breakfast elsewhere after exploring the books. Since we didn't eat there, this review pertains only to the bookstore. It was very crowded and noisy. The focus here is definitely on fiction, so if that is your thing, you will probably love it. We were hoping for a more comprehensive selection. There were also lots of gift items, puzzles, cards, crafts, etc.

Right in the middle of the business district in Bellows Falls is this community bookstore, which…read morealso sells add-ons like calendars, datebooks and literary novelties (we liked the "banned books" bracelet a lot). The selection has a nice if not terribly deep mix, and there's a good group of books for young adults and children. We also liked the good choice of books about Vermont and New England. The staff was friendly, and we have the sense they are very much involved in their community, which we strongly applaud. We found some paperbacks we wanted and were pleased to see the store was busy during our visit. We'd endorse a stop here for anyone in the neighborhood.

This is a gem of a store; I could easily spend hours here scouring the shelves for antique gems…read more They sell used books here, and you'll find originals here that might look rough around the edges, but their value is gold. You immediately get that smell of old books when you walk in. That leather bound scent that just doesn't exist in books that are made now in days. I always wonder about the people who previously owned these books, were they treasured? given by a loved one? These aren't thoughts I contemplate when I'm at Barnes and Nobles. (Don't get me wrong though; I live B&N) It's worth a visit, even if you don't end up buying anything.

They have all the major genres including sci-fi/fantasy, romance, thrillers, mysteries, and children's. I was a tad disappointed in the paperback prices, where a lot of the books are 10-15+ years old and pretty worn. Plus, the paperbacks were more expensive than the hardcovers, which makes no sense. My favorite thing in the store was the big trash bin filled with "trashy" novels. We got a good chuckle over that. It's worth a stop if you're a bookworm who happens to be driving through Plymouth.
