Your A-List: Best Bookstore
Indpendent book titan BookPeople is located in the heart of the city, both literally and figuratively. And, with 44 percent of the vote, is the Your A-List winner for Best Bookstore.
In addition to being the home of hundreds of magazines and thousands of books, the store, which is regularly ranked as one of the best independent book stores in the country, boasts a knowledgable and friendly staff (whose literary picks assist in sorting through the maze of books), a quiet cafe that allows you to peruse before you purchase and a calendar chock full of visiting literary talent.
