Category: Indie Bookstores of MA
We love books and we love exploring! My partner and I are day-tripping around my home state of Massachusetts to check out all the independent bookstores we can find in our series Indie Bookstores of MA. I post new videos to my YouTube channel every Thursday, and then shared here.
The posts are listed here in the order of most recent to least. You can reorder them, see the locations mapped, and use the search functionality on the Find a Bookstore page. If there’s a store you’d like to see here and we haven’t covered it yet, you can reach me using the contact methods on the About page. I do prioritize stores that have been requested. Eventually, I intend to cover every single independent bookstore in the state!
