I have been touring local booksellers in Cumberland county, and I was delighted to discover the…read moreBook Junction. I went to Shippensburg University and worked in this town for seven years, and never once did I find my way into this shop, but I am so glad that I found it now. It's hidden back an alleyway, and while there's a small sign out front that you can see from the street, you need to know where it is or you'll miss it. The selection available at the Book Junction is truly the best in any shop I've visited. I walked in looking specifically for one book (Neuromancer by William Gibson), and not only did I find it (seriously I've visited 8 other bookstores including Barnes and Noble and none had it), but I also found books five OTHER classic science fiction books I'd been unable to find elsewhere too. Paperback books are generally priced half off of whatever the publisher's price was on the book, which is pretty reasonable. The owner told me this mom and pop shop has been open for 23 years this year. Do yourself a favor and go check the Book Junction out. It's one of the absolute best I've come across and you won't be disappointed!

Every town deserves an independent bookseller like this, but sadly not every town is fortunate…read moreenough to have one. I am thankful that Lewistown (where I grew up and visit once or twice per year), is one of the lucky ones. The place is absolutely charming, occupying the bottom floor of a stately old house in the heart of downtown. They make excellent use of the space and offer something for everyone on beautiful wooden shelves. Bibliophiles of all ages and interests are covered here. The children's section gets its own room and the selection there is particularly strong. There are a few places to sit if you find yourself getting lost in a prospective purchase. Besides books, they carry puzzles, games, calendars, cards, and some decorative items. It takes passion and dedication to open a shop like this in today's retail landscape. I sincerely hope that they flourish! I will be sure to visit every time that I'm in town.

The service depends on the workers, but otherwise, it's very friendly! I love coming here for the novels and manga, since their variety is large.
