Visited and was really impressed. Its beautiful and immaculate, with a great selection and some comfy chairs. For a small shop, they have TONS of staff picks, you can tell they all really love what they do. Go, browse, read, enjoy!
This is my all-time favorite bookstore andI’ve been to dozens. Skylark Bookshop has a beautiful store, the architecture is amazing, the book selection is phenomenal, and the staff are more than willing to help you find what you need. The store is clean, organized, and it is easy to find what you are looking for. The kids section is also enchanting! I’m in love with this bookstore!
Skylark is a small and charming bookstore. The staff are always very friendly, and are knowledgeable about the collection, ready to answer any questions you may have. The selection is not the largest, but effort has been put in to make sure there is a diverse range of books for everyone.
Go smell the new books! This book shop is independently owned, GORGEOUS, and has an excellent selection. I love going here and asking the staff for recommendations for myself and others. They have book spas and book programs!
Wonderful as always! Had the exact right book I needed!
Probably the best COVID measures Ive seen in a storefront during a whole year of pandemic. The staff is super friendly and will talk books with you, or just have a pleasant conversation while you browse. I picked up a few books I was looking for and a few I wasnt, and they were all very reasonably priced. This is the ideal bookstore.
Incredible customer service! Top notch from ordering via email to delivery at my front porch due to COVID19. I was able to email them my request, they ordered it from their source, it arrived quickly and they accepted payment over the phone. It arrived at my door the next day and shipping costs were incredibly fair.Stop buying online folks and just buy from these folks. They seem to be able to get any book you could want and their your neighbor! I really enjoyed my experience and will be buying from them from now on.
They have been so amazing during this hard year and the staff are always so friendly! I love knowing I can support a local business for when I want my books new instead of used.
An inclusive space with a great book selection & wonderful staff. I could easily live here. Glad to have you, Skylark.
The staff are genuinely glad to help find the right book and suggest great reads!
Amazing bookstore. It is not just a regular bookstore, it’s an amazing experience! You’ll want to sit and relax and you’ll want to be there for an hour or so. The music, the smell, the color, everything is a great experience in this bookstore. Como here. I highly recommend it, especially if you’re a bookworm like me!
Charming place with a well curated selection of books, and a wonderful staff who know their stuff.
I very, very much enjoyed my author-visit at Skylark. Such a welcoming store that begs book-lovers to come inside and browse: clean, bright and open, without those darkened aisles of bookshelves that make you feel like you’re in a labyrinth. And that arched ceiling! Classic!I was treated generously—I was made to feel special. And I shall say so to everyone.Thank you to you and your staff.
This is great local book shop with an excellent selection of books. I highly recommended a visit to support a great local business.
Excellent selection and lovely staff. Clean, bright and well organized. Skylark is more than a bookstore. They are a part of our community.
Great bookstore of the browse the aisles and ask the knowledgeable staff questions variety. They also have Blackwing pencils and related supplies, if thats your addiction.
Certainly the best place to go for books in Columbia and vicinity. They have a great selection of fiction and nonfiction, and the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly.
Beautiful space, fairly thorough selection and a pleasant staff. Its a very relaxing atmosphere.
Excellent bookshop. Im so glad that Columbia has a locally-owned bookstore downtown for new books! Help the Mid-MO economy by buying local!
The collection is well curated and the atmosphere is delightful. I found myself browsing long after I found the books I wanted to purchase, because the environment was so comfortable.
Best collection of diverse literatures in Columbia.
Very kind
Glad Columbia has a new bookstore!
