A small list of my favorite bookstores in the DMV area (and a little beyond). I've been to each of these and they all left an impression.

The owner of this store is SO welcoming and helpful. She's well-read and takes her time with customers.
The Little Bookshop, Richmond VA
I recently visited with my partner and had so much fun. Staff is nice, they have a large selection.
Ivy Bookshop, Baltimore MD
Midlothian Book Exchange always has new stuff in! Their children's book section ROCKS.
Midlothian Book Exchange
I've been going to the GVBF since I could walk. It is a MUST in this area.
Green Valley Book Fair, Harrisonburg VA
The staff picks are impeccable at this book store. There are also some great coffee shops around. Grab a cold brew and browse.
Bridge Street Books
I can’t explain it, you just have to go. You’ll definitely find something to your taste!
Book Thing of Baltimore Inc
I recently visited this new store and had a great experience. Lewisburg was voted best small town in America so there is more to explore nearby. (There was also a book store doggie)
A New Chapter Bookstore
Just an interesting little shop. It is in a great area and there's seating nearby to sit an enjoy whatever book you just bought!
