Due to my wife loving books we have been stopping and going into book stores we see now. Walking…read morealong all the shops in downtown Bath this was the first store that caught our eyes. I will say definitely don't come in here expected your fancy new bookstore with all the popular new books. This is a used bookstore located in a historic building with shelves upon shelves of books. A spot you could spent a long time at browsing those shelves until you find that hidden gem you have been looking for! They have a variety of sections so if you have a particular genre you are searching for. Along with sections they did a few different sections highlighting Maine books too including a giant Stephen King section, Maine poetry and Maine mysteries too. Great little way to showcase that home state love! Value wise as we were just browsing we did not check prices so can't speak to that. Honestly my knowledge of used books especially highly sought after and in general is extremely lacking anyways. The condition of the books for sale did vary quite a bit too, some of the I assume older books had some wear and tear to them. Gives the books some character though. What I can say, is that if you are a book lover, or looking for gifts for that book lover in your life and are around here, stop in. Another quality used bookstore worth visiting.

Very well organized and I saw many books I have not seen at other large or local bookstores. We just browsed before our next stop opened for the day but this is a place you could lose yourself looking through the large selection. Especially a huge section of books that focus on Maine and specific areas in the state. A must stop for book lovers who find themselves in the area! We did not interact with the owner but he seemed very knowledgeable and friendly from the few regulars who popped in to see him during our visit. A bookstore my wife and I look forward to returning to!

Like the other reviewer stated, the new location on Independence Drive is pretty cramped. However,…read moremy wife was unhappy because they DON'T have any Harlequin Romances. Regular romances and historicals were maybe 20% of the store and were tucked in towards the back. I've been to many Annie's Book Stops over the years and almost none of them carry hard cover books. Paperbacks have always been their thing. We always receive fair but not generous credit for our trade-ins. Good selection of mysteries and thrillers. Friendly, chatty staff.

This was the second Sherman's my wife and I visited during the day we came here. Firstly I will say…read morethat Sherman's is a local bookstore worth supporting and you'll experience different vibes and experiences at each one. All of them will offer a great variety of classics and new and popular books available. They also all have a great amount of books that are on sale and you can find some great deals on books. A section worth looking through no matter the location. The best thing about this particular location is the fact they aren't crammed space wise and even if it were busy I wouldn't have felt claustrophobic. That positive does make it a better location than a few of the others. Although I do believe this one kinda falls a little short being uninspired and lacking a great charm to it. The staff we interacted with were friendly but it only occurred when checking out. It's a solid location and worth visiting just not our favorite Sherman's. Like all the other locations they have far more than books and lots of items everyone will like!

A perfect mix of contemporary and classic books, Green Hand is a magical bookstore. The staff is friendly and welcoming. On the day we visited, we took the number 1 bus along Congress Street, but it's also easily accessible on foot. We almost missed it because of the scaffolding outside, but we were so happy we didn't lose the chance to visit this local treasure. And it IS a treasure. It was recommended to us by the kind folks at Print, a Bookstore. I highly recommend it.

This is one of the nicest Bull Moose stores we have been in…read more Parking - a BREEZE - so many options, not crowded/competing with a to of other businesses. The store was neatly organized and well stocked, like most Bull Moose stores. The staff was super attentive and friendly. You can tell they are well liked by customers/community - they seemed to know everyone that was in there. We just had a quick visit to pick up an online order. It was fast and so easy. The person that helped us was really nice and we could hear that she had a cold of some kind - so I was relieved to see that she was wearing a mask in consideration of others. There were a lot of elderly customers while we were there and I can't imagine an illness would be helpful. The prices, especially for newer releases are very competitive even against giants like amazon. And it's supports Bull Moose - locally owned with much better customer service than big box. They also have never cancelled a pre-order on us, unlike other big retailers. Bonus - their loyalty program is AWESOME!!!!!

What a lovely book store! If you haven't been in a few years, they've had a pretty significant…read moreinterior design change. Not only is the - for lack of a better explanation - flow better, they seem to be better maximising their shelf space, and it's a more inviting place to spend time in (fairy lights! comfy chairs! an absolutely incredible playlist!). It's the kind of neighborhood bookshop that feels magical. Like, don't come here looking for a particular book; let the right book come to you when you're perusing. You'll know it when you see it. Or, okay, come here for something specific; it seems like the staff is more than accommodating if you need to special order something they don't have. I also watched them help a customer wrap something that was a gift, not mind at all that someone was just sitting on the floor reading, and welcome every single person who walked in the door. If you love books and you're in the area, stop by. If you love books and you're not in the area, this is still a destination bookstore visit in Maine.

What a perfect place to shop for a book, and enjoy the process…read more I can't resist a book store and appreciate the effort for a local store to compete in an online world.
