An Unlikely Story Bookstore, Massachusetts, United States


4.5 (48 reviews) Spent < 1 hour Ranking #1 in Plainville Speciality & Gift Shops

Great place

A nice little bookstore with plenty of books. We drove all the way here because Jeff Kinney the author of The Wimpy Kid books own this store. My Granddaughters love his books and we’re so happy to see all his books in one place. Don’t worry adults, there are plenty of books for you. Plus a nice cafe to sit, drink coffee and enjoy your new book.

    where dreams come true!
    ust went here last night for an author signing with stephanie garber of the caraval series and once upon a broken heart, first time coming in and as soon as i walked in on the first floor I was BLOWN away by what they were able to capture in this bookstore. I love how the building takes up the whole corner. The second floor is where the event was held and was blown away again their set up was STUNNING!!! did not realize till i got there they serve alcohol as well best believe next time i will be better prepared. they also sold additional books of the authors that were speaking right next to the bar which was super convenient. the only thing i would comment on is the organization of the actual signing some people were cutting and not waiting for their rows to be called and no one really regulated until the end. also maybe a tip for next time put a limit on how many books for signing we had some people with 20+ books for the author to sign. but all in all the staff was AMAZING and super nice and gave me all the best recommendations i could hope for. this was my first book signing with an author and i will be back here and already bought 3 event tickets already. just a tip if you sit towards the front you will be called first for signing just to save yourself time.

    Wonderful, old fashioned book store.
    Stepping into this quaint bookstore/coffee bar was like stepping back in time. There was a large selection of books, as well as eccentric gift ideas, journals, and even toys and games. It was a wonderful way to spend an hour or so, and the staff was wonderful as well
