While we love a sunny day, there’s something nice about bad weather. It forces us to take some time to ourselves and it forces us to stay inside. Maybe light a fire and curl up with a good book and some tea. But, wait! What book!? If you’re not sure what book you’d reach for in the event of a bad-weather day, we recommend you head straight for this used bookstore in New Hampshire. It’s absolutely huge and it’ll keep you busy for hours.
Tucked away in Henniker, New Hampshire is the most beloved used book store in New England. You’ll find it just five minutes from New England College.
