416 Main St, Murphys“Brilliant. Love that the staff has an entire shelf of recommendations and all are happy to chat about them as well as talk about books in general. Much as I like Amazon and how it's revolutionized how we can get books from anywhere in the world about anything, it's much easier to discover books in an environment like this. They even order books from Waterstones in the UK just because they prefer the covers sometimes!”
“Our family has been visiting Twain Harte for decades, and the Mountain Bookshop for almost as long. It’s an always “must go” destination every summer. Books of course are a key attraction, but they have a wonderful children’s store, great kitchen items and fun gifts. The ribbon and greeting card selection in particular are knockouts - hard to duplicate anywhere. Looking forward to my annual visit soon.”
“Fascinating chance to see the 2nd oldest building in Sonora and mining history. The shop sells antiques and books. There is an antique bar with drinks and ice cream upstairs. Having ice cream with the kids at the bar is fun!”
