What a beautiful and welcoming book store! I love a good book store! This location of Copperfield's is in the Marin Country Mart. It is warm and cozy and inviting. So nicely laid out and "booky." I love the vibes. The employees were friendly and helpful. They have a very good stock of Jelly Cat plushies - which was unexpected. I think this is a fabulous spot to buy a gift. There are some big chairs to sit in and ponder one of the great books. I wish I had more time to hang out and I can't wait to come back. read more

The store is small. The inventory is carefully curated to offer the most popular of whatever it is, which of course didn't satiate my desire for a new stack of reads. I took my husband here for his birthday for a book, as we've done since we met. We are bookish, believing in the quiet power of a well turned page, obsessed with learning new things, exploring the lives of others through biographies, reinforcing our compassion and empathy with fiction, staying curious through sci-fi, immersing ourselves in history, and enjoying the beauty of well written words. My husband picked a sci-fi book from a British author we have enjoyed reading in the past. I found nothing. Lots of TikTok girlie/booktube titles. I almost bought a cute birthday card but changed my mind. There are a couple of big chairs to sit in, a modest amount of carefully curated offerings, and friendly service. It was good. read more

his charming bookstore has a delightful cabin-like atmosphere. The warm glow of the fireplace creates a cozy vacation vibe and the decor captures the essence of rustic charm, making it an idyllic spot to escape reality. The chandelier, high ceilings and wildlife decor is just beautiful. One of my favorite takeaways! While the space may be small, it's inviting and fun!

Copperfield's Books - Picking some fun finds. - Bookstores Near Me - Larkspur, California

This local bookstore is always fun to peruse while at the Country Mart and was a staple of our shopping when my kiddo was younger. I return here consistently to order books that I have trouble finding anywhere in stock (even though the price is steep). The service is the best around! read more

This is the second location I have been too . This one has a dark ambiance vibe that I absolutely loved . I love their selection of books and they know what's up with best sellers ;) I purchased a book and a bookmark right before closing . Another book to my collection to remember my first time here ! Great customer service . read more

For some reason, this Copperfield Books location is dangerous to me. Even though this is one of their smaller stores, I always find an item to purchase. All the sections are laid out very clearly, so it's easy to find the areas you are interested in. And they seem to always carry titles I don't see at other bookstores, even though they can't fit as many books on the shelves. Each time I wander in to "just browse" before dining at one of the center's restaurants, I inevitably walk away with at least one book. It's like the staff here know what I like and stock them before I show up!!! read more

While waiting for a table at a nearby restaurant, I decided to check out Copperfield's Books at Marin County Mart and I'm so glad I did. Copperfield's is a warm, quaint bookstore that makes you want to grab a blanket and settle in for a relaxing read. The store has a lovely selection of books. While there, the store featured books promoting Native Americans, Black Americans and the LGBTQ+ community. There were so many great books that it took a lot of work to make a (small) selection. I could have stayed in the store for hours, but I had to leave eventually. If you're a book lover and happen to be at the Marin County Mart, be sure to stop by! read more

Again, another fantastic indie bookstore to visit if you are in the area! First, the Marin Country Mart is adorable, with plenty of food options and small stores - and I was so pleasantly surprised to see a bookstore among them! Copperfield's Books was fantastic - they have a wide variety of books that are well organized and distributed throughout the store. While I was in, they were also playing some early 2000 angsty bangers that threw it back to middle school for me. We always appreciate a good vibe. The employees were helpful and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Definitely a spot I would come back to if I am ever in town again! read more

I love Copperfield's. One of the best things about the Bay Area is that we have so many independent bookstores. While I admit that I have a little Amazon addiction, I make sure to make whatever book purchases I can at an actual independent brick and mortar book store. And lucky me, my mother-in-law has made a habit out of giving us gift cards to Copperfield's for Christmas and birthdays. The selection is always diverse and inspiring. If "curated" hadn't become such a blech overused term, I would say that the shelves are artfully curated. I like this location because it has that beautiful Dutch tile fireplace, which was also in its predecessor, the somewhat confusingly named Diesel (which sounds more appropriate to, say, a jeans store or gas station than a bookstore). It's also convenient for browsing after lunch or replacing your Soda Stream canister at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. You know, as one does. And parking is free, if tight around lunchtime. But...I really do prefer the downtown San Rafael location. It's larger. The sale tables are bigger, and better, which cheaper prices. It has comfortable seating. And the children's section is good enough to make it an actual destination. The Larkspur Landing has a small children's section, but with no seating or games. The downtown location also has an impressive selection of gifts, toys, and games. I know the downtown store is dog-friendly. I'm not sure about the Larkspur Landing branch, although I imagine it probably is, given how friendly Marin Country Mart is in general. Overall, this Copperfield's is a welcome addition to Marin Country Mart, although it is not quite as awesome as the downtown location. read more

Great selection, and staff was great! Loved the sale section too-it made us reach deeper into our pockets than anticipated!

It looks small in the front but it's a lot bigger once you enter! It has a decent selection; a good mix of current best sellers, classics, and non-fiction. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming. We had a fantastic experience in this location . Poke your head in if you're in the area, I'll guarantee you'll walk away with a new book. read more

I miss Diesel, I recently walked in to browse, and was immediately told that they closed in 5 minutes. I hadn't been in the store since it changed, so I looked at my watch, smiled and commented that 5:55 was a weird time to close, the sales associate rolled her eyes at me, and said "10 minutes then." I just don't have the energy for that, I'll buy my books from one of the other independent bookstores in Marin. Books are my happy place, Diesel was also, Copperfield's? It is still beautiful, the selection seems the same (I wouldn't know, I left shortly after that exchange) but I'll pass. She could have had a bad day, wanted to get home, I completely get it, but it's not okay to be rude. read more
