Odyssey Bookshop

Very small bookstore, first floor is mostly for the college and downstairs caters more to children. Not a lot of mystery and science fiction books.

One of my favorite book shops in the area. It's perfectly situated to make a trip out involving food, coffee, and then a shop around at Odyssey. The selection of books is excellent. Having shopped for myself I'm the past (primarily fiction, autobiography, history, etc), I now find myself looking for books for new twins. They had books for everything! Even a twin book for little ones that explains what it means to be a twin and it is perfect. Their selection just happens to align with my views on alot of things so I can't wait to make a number of repeat purchases in the future. Prices are good given it's a brick and mortar store. You can't go comparing to online pricing! I would hate to lose such a beautiful bookstore to everyone only buying online. It's just such a pleasure to peruse around and look in a book before purchasing.

The newest location of the Odyssey spans two stories. While you can get books on both floors, Mount Holyoke College clothing and merchandise is primarily on the top floor. There are plenty of choices in clothes, bags, drink holders etc as well as small gift items. You can also find several books written by current and former faculty in store. The owner is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable about items in the store. She was able to tell me about a late faculty member's book written 45+ years ago that I was having a hard time finding.

We went there for an event and immediately saw how much we missed visiting book stores. I am so happy to see that the book store feels wonderful. Well lit, well organized, and well staffed. We could easily spend a day here just soaking in the 2 floors of books - real books! The event was well attended, fascinating, and lively. Rachel Seidman talking about her book, "Speaking of Feminism", was a joy. It is a little far from.where I live but I plan on making more frequent trips just to breathe in all the wonderful books!
