Local public library was closed for the holidays and ventured out to this local independent shop about a mile away. My girls and I were pleasantly surprised with the little gem of a shop we found at the historic Savage Mill. Cozy, warm, great customer service and book/gift selections. My daughters are 12 and 9 and have very different tastes - all three of us found a plethora of books to choose from - even picked up other cute items like bookmarks and stuffed animals. Although they were disappointed the library was closed, this made for a great substitute. We’ll definitely be back again!

A beautiful bookstore with great people who are very friendly and helpful. I'm not into bookstores, but this bookstore stands out from the rest.

Limited selection. Rude and dismissive proprietor. Disappointing.

One of my favorite places in Savage Mill- used and new books and really fun gifts available.

We visited last weekend. The stores were opening up and we saw this little bookstore with one of the gates open. We assumed it just opened for the day - completely wrong. After a few minutes inside, the owner (I presume) stated, "umm, we're not open." Valid statement, though the incredulous look she shot at us would make one think we had broke in. We apologized and turned to exit. She apparently was still appalled and felt the need to add, after our apology, "that's why the gates are closed." Well, ma'am, only one gate was closed and, despite our mistake in assuming you were open (we found out we were a few minutes early so I'll take the blame), your rude demeanor is a sure way to keep anyone from wanting to come in thus keeping your gates closed... permanently.

Cute place. It has book related small gift options (mugs, teas, candles, tshirts, pins, etc.). Not very big selection in terms of books however.

My go-to independent bookstore! I love browsing here and I also love that I can order books for pick up at the Savage location. Whenever I buy new books, I get them from Books with A Past!

This is a nice SMALL used and new book store. I was looking for Sci-Fi books and was very disappointed at the limited. I browsed the histoey and biographies.. again disappointed.. Maybe I came on a bad week.

Great place to find books by good authors that you missed the first time around. 1/2 to 2/3 the original price. We'll keep going back.

I always enjoy browsing the stacks and getting a couple books from the bargain shelves. My next goal is to catch one of the story times with my daughter.
