Excellent book selection and wonderful vibe. One of the best bookstore as they also have used books down stairs and interesting products like gourmet chocolate and treats that are wonderful gifts. Great location in Coolidge corner with all the other amazing shops.

This place is the best. I lived in Boston for many years and I loved having this amazing bookstore so close. I just visited Boston again after being a way for a few years and was thrilled to see the Booksmith is just as good as ever. They have an amazingly curated collection. Their shelf of their top 100 is really fun to check out and always has great recommendations. I wish we lived closer so we could visit the Booksmith more often.

Such a wonderful place! They have a great celebration of books, and the others sections are so fun and so cute! I can see the owner really put thoughts in designing the store.
