Very Cool

Christ, do I miss the original Rizzoli bookstore in NYC.

 

You can call me Chris

 

I can't access the link at work, but here's hoping the Tattered Cover in Denver is represented.

 

There's only one US bookstore, and I know nothing of the Tattered Cover, but unless it's an outdoor bookstore with great views, probably not topping the one that's on the list.

 

Bart’s Books, Ojai, California
The Last Bookstore, Los Angeles, CA

Those are the only 2 US bookstores on the list

 

OK, if they're talking about places with views and whatnot, it wouldn't make the list. It's just one of those cool, old school bookstores that you can go into and blink and four hours have passed.

 

Right, love those. But is it beautiful? This isn't "awesomest bookstores."

 

Have been to the Tattered Cover a couple of times. One of the great indie bookstores left in North America. However by no stretch of the imagination is it beautiful.

And Ben's right: the Rizzoli bookstore was stunning.

 

I loved the old location for Elliott Bay Books, great spot in Pioneer Square. Probably wouldn't fall under beautiful, but definitely a great bookstore.

The new location sucks.

 

Easy, now.
