European Bookshops to adore

Libreria Acqua Alta

This bookshop in Venice, Italy is absolutely dreamy and inspirational. You will find books in gondolas, on steps, chairs and anywhere there is available space

Shakespeare and Company

Located in Paris, France, Shakespeare and Company, although not at the original address, still possesses oodles of Old World charm, down to the lighting, colors and scent of old books and paper that fills the air

Blackwell’s

Oxford, England gives you the 142 year old Blackwell’s Bookshop. For some reason I can’t quite put my finger on, whenever I visit, it makes me want to go back to school

Mayersche Buchhandlung

Aachen, Germany’s Mayersche Bookstore, to me, is the German version of the fictitious FOX BOOKS from the movie, You’ve got Mail, with its multilevel architecture, wonderful children’s book area and in house Café

Boekhandel Dominicanen

In Maastricht, The Netherlands you will find a Dominican church, no longer used for religious functions, repurposed as of 2006 as a modern bookstore. A guaranteed unique experience
