4.9(288)Newton Centre, Newton MA
A beloved independent bookstore with a serious author-event calendar and excellent staff picks.
Newtonville Books is the kind of independent shop that anchors a neighborhood: tightly curated fiction, a strong kids’ section, and staff recommendation cards that are actually worth reading.
The author-event series punches well above the store’s size — nationally touring novelists read here regularly. Events are usually free with a book purchase; check the calendar and RSVP.
