I recently got to explore the Squirrel Hill area of Pittsburgh, PA and had a wonderful time inside the Riverstone Books location there. This shop is much bigger on the inside than it looks from the street and is worth popping in.

My absolute favorite part were all of the Staff Recs. While there were a few titles that you run across just about every Staff Pick in just about every shop, these on the tree by the front door were an eclectic mix of topics and form. Such a celebration of why read books, just inside the door.

The shop has a lot of new books to choose from as well as lots of cool sidelines and gifts for folks who like to spend time with books. If you’re in the area, it’s worth a stop.
