Reviews of Landmark Booksellers | Franklin, Tennessee

Christina Hancock

a quaint bookshop of new, old & rare! a great shop for book lovers, with a larger collection of TN/franklin related reads. prices are typical of independant bookstores, but you can catch some nice sale racks (2-4$) outside the shop! especially nice collection of special edition classics. totally worth a look if you are downtown franklin

Mary Nunaley

Quaint bookstore with a wide selection of local books. Reminds me of similar bookstores in Chicago.

Josh Fryman

Worth your time to visit this wonderful bookstore. The owner and booksellers are very hospitable and kind; the prices are reasonable; and the "feel" of the place is pretty much perfect.

Peter Dz

This is the kind of book shop that I like. Browsing here is comfortable and familiar like your favorite pair of worn in jeans. Prices seemed a bit high, but I’m still looking forward to my next visit!

Savanna

this place just felt like home. incredibly cozy and inviting- could have spent hours in here! got some gifts for folks back home! awesome bookkeepers, awesome displays of historical and rare books, awesome variety.

Travis Grether

A very unique and cozy bookshop with a wonderful selections of old and new books in a beautiful historic house in downtown Franklin. The shopkeepers were very friendly and knowledgeable.

David Spargur

I bought a book by John McEuen from here and it came personally autographed with a bonus 8x10, also autographed! And was shipped promptly, cushioned and economically. I live 30 miles from Hollywood but from now on, I'm shopping HERE for my bluegrass legend books!

Patti Morena

It's a great bookshop; old and new books, places to sit and relax if wanted. Clerks are knowledgeable and helpful

Morgan Waterman

Gorgeous bookshop! I love the history, the secondhand books, and the atmosphere.

Chloe Buco

What an absolute gem! Franklin is a very conservative town with some pomp. At least I can say it was worth the trip because this book store is a readers dream. An entire collection of Easton press releases, a vintage styled office display, and actual books that weren't about God or country music. 😂 The staff kept some of the more valuable books up front under Glass and they were stunning. The man who was assisting me was very enthusiastic but not pushy. Honestly this was the one place in town I felt comfortable in!

Jeff & Diana Dean

We are book lovers so this gem in downtowns Franklin is one of our favorite places to visit when we're in town visiting family. Beautiful, historic old building. There are books, new and old, stuffed into bookcases and nooks and crannies. A great place to spend an hour or two soaking in books. We always buy something unique here

Debbie S.

The best bookstore in Franklin! If you love old books, history, new releases and a good story from the owner who seems like a character from a southern novel, you must visit this place!

David Wilder

The best local bookstore in the area; great staff, amazing selection, and very inviting!

Nathan Gesner

Very nice bookstore with wide variety of choices.

Deb Clark

Love this bookstore...such a treasure trove of books! Joel and Carol Tomlin, the owners are wonderful people and are always friendly an helpful.

Deborah Williams

This is the kind of place where you can spend hours searching for books you never knew you needed or wanted! Many first editions and rare books along with wonderful selections by southern authors. Comfortable spaces where you can lounge and peruse your selections. Quaint and funky and fun! All in a fabulous old building with as much character and drama as all the inventory. A must-stop in Franklin!

Jon Brinton

Love books? In the Franklin area? You must stop at Landmark books. A nice collections of Antiquarian, First Edition, hard to find, and general interest books with great sections on Tennessee and Southern faire. Enjoy the browsing and buying!

Victoria G

Charming and quaint, this old fashioned bookstore is a gem!

Amy Nemecek

As I am a bibliophile, a friend highly recommended we check out this shop. To be honest, I wasn't impressed. The shelves are so disorganized, and so when the proprietor asked if she could help me find anything, I asked where the poetry section was and if she could recommend any Tennessee poets for me to try. Her reply was that she doesn't really get poetry and they don't really carry poetry beyond a few textbook examples like Whitman and Wordsworth. A bookshop without poetry was an immediate turnoff and made for a disappointing visit.

Gigi Levangie

Dream bookstore with excellent and varied selection of books - and comfortable spots to read them.

Arthur Garneau

Amazing! Good spot anytime, but rainy day sounds good too.

Trevor Brooks

Explored this cozy meandering book store recently and found it hard to leave. Charming, inviting, warm and friendly are just a few words to describe the place. Put your phone away. Find any book. Read the paper. Sit in a comfortable chair. There's history here. Don't miss it.

Cynthia Lindblom

My book club read The Bridge by Karen Kingsbury so we took a field trip to the bookstore. It lived up to our expectations. So many books and the staff loved the notoriety due to the book. Very nice people.

Kenneth Moss

Friendly staff, warm and inviting environment, and an incredible selection of both new and second hand books. Small independent bookstores such as this one are an American treasure, and unfortunately are also a rare breed these days. Please support this wonderful place!

4tucks

I have always wanted to visit this shop but never had time so we took time and it was awesome! We bought several books that were somewhat hard to find and enjoyed the conversation with the gentleman that ran it.

Ruth Huntley

The owner and his wife are welcoming and so helpful. The shop has a delightful children's section with some beautiful vintage books. Also worth noting is the collection of Southern writers, including many signed editions. There is an incredibly comfortable trio of leather couches where you can relax as you look through a book.

Noah Patterson

What a pleasant place to spend 30 minutes or a few hours in. The store goes pretty far back and is separated into different rooms giving it a personal and comfortable feel. It has character just like the books. They also carry old newspapers and maps. Even some old photographs. I found a small room in the back that was a bit out of sorts, but I enjoyed that room the most. I found some interesting books back there on just about everything. Although I was not able to buy anything this visit (I was traveling from out of state of didn’t have the luggage space) I hope to get something next time! I believe I met the owner as well. Or at least I met a very kind older gentleman who seemed like he was in charge. I would have loved to talk with him more, but I was already walking out to door and headed to the airport.

Allen Dennis

Great variety of new & carefully curated used books. Many of the used books are collectible first editions/signed. Specializing in southern lit/history or southern authors. Highly knowledgeable, literate staff. Nicely presented. Park on R side (facing bldg).

Samuel Frens

Great bookstore with a great selection. Fair prices if a little bit high for the used selection. Will continue to return whenever I'm in Franklin to see what they have!

Amy Burritt

Great selection of books and friendly staff. Lots of classics and a good selection of regionally-relevamt books as well, both new and old.

Jane Stein

I have enjoyed browsing many times. It's relatively small, but packed with some interesting books. I have not left empty handed.

Pri Rye

Always a 5 out of 5 experience there. First editions galore! Hands down the best book shop in middle Tennessee. We're lucky to have them in Downtown Franklin.

Matt Latsha

This place is very cool, with a nice selection of books. Lots of topics, and since it's Franklin, there's a nice selection of Civil War stuff, especially the Battle of Franklin. All very nice. It is a little on the expensive side. It's not crazy, but it's also not the value that McKay's can be. There is a special area in the back, with lots of books stacks up on tables, where you can snag a good deal, but be prepared to do a lot of searching. If you're in Franklin, this is a nice little addition to the downtown scene, and the neighborhood would feel something missing if it weren't there. If you're a book-lover, this is a good choice.

Alex H

A massive collection of books! A bit pricey but it's a locally owned business. The owners are friendly too. Check out their massive library!

f stavins

Nice selection of new and used books. A great tiffany lamp(perhaps). Friendly proprietors.

Steve David

Some wonderful collections both old and recent ...the staff are knowledgeable and friendly....

Haley Billow

What a cute little book shop! We spent about an hour perusing books and chatting with the employees. Very friendly service and wonderful selection!

S. Sasi

Well worth the visit. Incredible collection of books and Southern lore, the owner Joel Tomlin is friendly and knowledgeable on local histories. The venue itself is historic for being the place where figures like Andrew Jackson, Sam Houston and Davy Crockett all sat together. Don't miss it if you pass through Franklin, TN

Dana Guy

Unique fascinating place to get lost in for an hour or too. Small and intimate, several rare items. Very boutique. This place is supposed to haunted, ask them about it! Worth a peek. I'm sure you will find a treasure in here. Don't go in carrying a drink, they find this disrespectful and I don't blame them. Plan to come in without that in your hand.

J. Chapman

A nice, quaint bookstore housed in an historic building in downtown Franklin, TN. Owners Joel and Carol Tomlin are very welcoming and knowledgeable about the area. They sponsor book signings and know many of the authors whose books they sell. Their inventory includes a wide variety of books on many topics with emphasis on Tennessee, Civil War, the South, and local history. I bought three books I was very pleased to find. Keep in mind that this store has a number of one-of-a-kind books some of which are rare and expensive. It's not your typical Barnes & Noble box store where you can pick up something and expect the employees to put it back where it belongs. If you like small, independently owned bookshops with a lot of atmosphere and character this one is definitely worth visiting.

New Orleans Live Aquatics Cory Gumpert

Highly recommended for all the book worms going through or visiting Franklin Tennesse. The owner is a real stand up guy very intelligent and a great conversationalist. We come from New Orleans twice a year and come visit the shop. They have a little of everything you can imagine. 5 Star Place. Not to mention its SUPER COZY ........

Melissa Claridge

Such a charming place. Southern hospitality at its finest, friendly, courteous staff. Oh, and the books...

Michael Mcelyea

Neat little bookstore with a great vibe for those who just love books. Many beautiful older books and several newly bound classics. In the back they have a perfect example of an office/library every book lover aspires to have one day in their home. Worth the stop!

Eric Helwig

Clean store, good selection of books. Couldn’t tell where the new ones started and the old ended. Some of the prices were a bit high, but the shopkeeper was very nice. Worth the stop.

Brian Hale

This is hands down the best used bookstore I have been to. It has "buy two and get a third book free" sales on the holidays, an impressive collection of Southern literature especially, and a knowledgeable and amiable owner.

Michelle Lacey Brown

Joel and Carol were so friendly and knowledgeable. Tons of books old and new, nice reading areas for adults and children. We will definitely be back again.

Phillip Miller

This was a cool spot. They had a lot of 1st edition signed books. Was a little disappointed that their fiction section was boxed up due to reorganization, and the employee wouldn't allow is to look through the boxes... which is understandable but still disappointing. Would come back solely to browse their fiction section.

Jinx Cole

Such a glorious find in Franklin! This bookstore is packed with historical books, children's books, local lore and more with sweet reading spots tucked away. I could easily get lost in a book here.

Web Webster

A must-stop when visiting Franklin. Read (and buy) local. A real bookstore, where the owners run the register and have put their hands in every volume they sell. Deep southern authors and local authors selections, as well as Civil War histories, biographies, etc. New and used books, incredibly comfortable and plentiful seating ... the kind of pkace I never go with buying something. Now I just have to make more time to get in there.

DeeDee Carter-Saks

Love this place but will not be going back. It’s such a small place and not one person wearing a mask. Don’t want my kids or my family taking on a public health risk.

Tracy Irvin

Great selection of classic, new and used books. Quaint building, friendly helpful staff. A must visit for bibliophiles!

Sheila E Shacks

Cory Truett

We have bought many books from Landmark and love all of our trips here. Very friendly store with great staff and and awesome selection.

A wonderful place to look at or for books. A children's room offers the opportunity to read from old and new books to kids. Very layed-back. I could spend many hours here!

Betsy Michele

I visit every time I'm in town! Great variety. Kind, helpful staff.

Finn Webster

i mean, it’s alright... pretty narrow selection, certainly a franklin bookstore. seeing as it is an antique bookstore most of their stuff is fairly expensive. slim poetry section and nothing especially out of the ordinary.

Andrew Smith

If you cant find a book here, well, you arent looking. Owners are awesome! Got a super book on mythology that i loved. You can get my novel here now as well.
