Love this little gem of a bookstore. I bought an out of print Ansel Adams book for a family member. They were ecstatic! I often stop in and buy books for my specific collection as well.

This is what a bookstore should be. So well stopped that the books overflow from the shelves and form piles on the floor. A store you can get lost in for a while. It gives off very cozy vibes and is a fun store to walk through whenever you're in town.

Wonderful shop! I was wondering down the Main Street when this gem caught my eye. I walked in and was immediately greeted and allowed to browse comfortably. A true bookworms dream! But I knew if I needed help they were close by. I overheard the owner talk to a gentleman that they do buy occasionally rare books and was pleasantly surprised to find some First Editions. Cutest place and left super happy with my copy of Anna Karenina.

I bought two antique books from you guys a while ago and I just love this shop. The vibes are immaculate, the employees are super nice, its never too crowded, the selection is amazing despite the small size of the store, and the older books are in great condition. Love you guys

One of my favorite funky little bookshops. These places are the goldmines for those of us who don’t mind digging through the many interesting books stacked here and piled there. Fun selection of rare and early/first editions, and I love the eclectic art book and print selections.

I like their selection and prices on Easton Press and Franklin Library. I found some uncommon nautical titles last time I was there.

We didn't spend a lot of time in here today, 12/23/22, but from what I saw, this is an antiquarian's dream shop. They have first editions, collectibles, and recent books. It's small, cozy, and staff was friendly. It was a little dark for my old eyes, and I had some difficulty finding books I wanted. I'd love to come back and spend more time here.

What an awesome bookstore. Owners Peter and Bente are absolutely lovely individuals. They came to buy books from my father-in-law's extensive book collection after he had passed away. They were respectful, gracious and kind, which turned our difficult task into a very pleasant experience. For this, we will always be grateful. I visited the bookshop today, and it was a wonderful experience. Peter made great recommendations! He clearly loves what he does - he was helpful and extremely knowledgeable. I would highly recommend the Calico Cat Bookshop to anyone who enjoys books and loves to read. Thank you Peter and Bente, it is a true pleasure to do business with you!!! Most Sincerely, Jennifer
