Suggestions for Bookstore near Seattle

Dawn F. • January 20, 2023My favorite bookstore in Seattle! It SMELLS like a bookstore, and it has those good creaky floors. The selection of books is wonderful, and there's a little cafe in the back for a coffee or pastry.

Leonard L. • July 6, 2019One of my favorite places in town, and come to think of it, one of my favorite bookstores anywhere. Especially recommended if you’re the least bit geeky.
