A very nice and clean independent bookstore in Great Barrington. Easy parking, convenient hours. My 16 year Daughter loves coming here. A lot of employee recommendations.

Good selection of books. I wish they had a bigger mystery section. They do have a great selection of best sellers and new books.

Excellent local and independent bookstore. Great for browsing. Could develop their antiracism and international books quite a bit, especially in decolonial perspectives. Overall a fine independent bookstore.

We love visiting the Bookloft and choosing a book as an activity with my son. The owner and staff are lovely and so helpful. Great kids section along with a huge variety for adults. The best part they will order a book for you if not on the floor and call when it comes in. Above and beyond store and always will be a loyal customer.

This is an amazing bookstore; hard to believe in rural MA or anywhere; they either have everything or in recent experience got what we wanted in less than 2 days. We need to support local in every way possible.

This is not the place to go if you want to save your money! This was a lovely, homey, magical bookstore. Loved all the genres of books they had, and all the hidden shelves and corners. Just when I thought I was done, I found another shelf to explore! This store is for booklovers.

I liked the old store better. I was looking for a baby book and the selection was mostly Halloween books. I couldn't find any of the classic children's books that I normally buy for a baby shower. The layout of the new store was not accommodating at all. Sorry that they moved.

To say that my little family loves the Bookloft would be a colossal understatement. Their employees are so friendly and they take the time to listen to even their youngest customers. They have wonderful community events and really great book clubs. They have an amazing selection of books but if you can't find what you're looking for they will happily order it for you. They also have a wide selection of gift items. Happiness is browsing in an independent bookstore!

Love it there. They had the book I was looking for and a few I didn't realize I needed. The staff was very kind and knowledgeable.

Great selection! It reminds me of Borders, which had a goal of having a broad selection in each section, if only a copy or two of less-popular titles. Best bookshop in the area!

One of the best book stores! Love the way this one is set up. Found something we didn't even know we were looking for! Great selection of everything! Small music section, could be a little bigger 😉 Not complaining at all! Will be returning for future purchases!!

What's not to love about a small, independent, locally owned and operated bookstore? Sure, you can save a few bucks buying online or at some gigantic big box, corporate store that pays their employees minimum wage while the executives earn millions... or you can support your neighbors! The Book Loft has an incredible children's section and the staff actually reads and reviews the books they sell. They also carry a small selection of gift items and often have super discounted books for sale. I love this small, local bookstore!

Great little independent book store. Very clean inside, lots of natural light, helpful staff, and a wonderful selection of books and gift ideas. Can't wait to go back.

Great bookstore. Helpful staff + Jon & I were able to find a stack of new books fairly quick by just checking out the front section where there are a ton of new books, all with staff recommendations & insight. The Staff Picks are incredibly helpful. We will be back!

Cute bookstore with a lot of other fun items that are great stocking stuffers and just good for anyone who loves books. Always love stopping in to see new selections and experience the chill vibes.

This bookstore is in new location, and feel very comfortable to navigate. However, it seem to have less parking than the previous location. The service is fast and friendly. The book i order last came two days earlier than they predicted.

Great local bookstore. It's small, but packed with good finds. I always find something in the discount section and they have a nice selections of bits and baubles. Whenever I'm in town I stop by and you should too.

Great book store! The staff is very helpful. They order anything I need and it arrives quickly! If they don't have it - they get it! They even found several copies of an out of print book for me. Fantastic!!!
