Great Staff Recommendations
I love wandering through this store and reading the staff recommendations. And Kudos to them for keeping up such a friendly countenance in such a high tourist activities location. Nothing zaps your will to relate like people who abuse you because they'll never have to see you again.

A Great Neighborhood Bookstore
The Booksmith is truly a great neighborhood bookstore - a pleasant place to stop, with new and noteworthy books arranged in front and around the counter that are likely to appeal, and a wide-ranging selection that guarantees that just about anyone will find something to read.
It's noteworthy, though, that Booksmith pushes further - by stocking things that go above and beyond what one might expect in a neighborhood bookstore - such as their selection of art and poetry.
