Following up on MobyLives earlier post that discovered book heaven, there’s more heaven out there than we knew! This very cool website about bookmarks, yes bookmarks!, has an ongoing post entitled “The Most Interesting Bookstores in the World.” Here you will find some of the more interesting bookstores in the world… A very cramped bookstore in Calcutta, India; inside a bookstore in Lello, Portugal; a bookstore in Maastricht, Holland installed in an old Dominican church…. Maybe you have some to add?

Valerie Merians is the co-founder and co-publisher of Melville House.
