5.0 of 5 stars. "Books you don't need in a place, in a place you can't find" The motto explains the Book Mill pretty accurately. The half of my spending money in college that did not go to beer was used to buy used...

Yelp.com Review - by mac h.

5.0 of 5 stars. For persons who may wish to use my review to consider a visit: it is difficult to describe this bookstore. It is indeed, a bit hard to find and also a bit of a drive outside of Boston. Once you get...

Yelp.com Review - by Cheese Is C.

4.0 of 5 stars. Great place to escape or study. I preferred it more rustic, like it was about 15 years ago, but it's still a nice location.

5.0 of 5 stars. Beautiful, relaxing, friendly -- one of the few perfect places. Immerse yourself in interesting books, relaxing on a couch, overlooking the falls that once powered this mill, wondering: If I just...

4.0 of 5 stars. Yep, their slogan says it all: "Books you don't need in a place you can't find." Do you need the books you find here? Probably not. Will you buy a few? Definitely. Driving up here during the fall...

5.0 of 5 stars. "Books you don't need in a place you can't find." Best slogan ever.This place is emblematic of everything I miss about Western Mass -- odd, hidden, quiet, friendly, and built on DiY spirit. I second...

Yelp.com Review - by Arwen O.

5.0 of 5 stars. If I ever open a store/cafe/concert space, I hope it's as good as this. Each part is in a different room in the old mill, so you feel like you're in the Shire, only not in a cheesy LOTR-fan kind of...
