Reviews of Parnassus Books
Alicia Martinez
One of my favorite little gems in Nashville! I’ve recently started reading again and have come here for all my books. They have a great selection of diverse authors represented. I love seeing the dogs when they’re there. The staff is always super kind and helpful.
Peter Dz
So many reviews here talk about a great selection, but that's not what I experienced during my visit. It's pretty much the same as the big name chain we all know about, but with fewer choices. I took a brief look at the history section and just laughed. Won't be going back.
Anthony Argueta
Such a great spot for all literature needs. Wish we had an associate ask us if we needed help or just check in on us, but the place is beautiful. Found a couple of great stocking stuffers and presents.
Elene Paulus
Jordan provided the most amazing customer service! I called in a surprise order for someone that would be visiting the store in the upcoming days. Jordan helped to pick out the perfect gifts and included a hand written note! Kudus to Jordan! If I am ever in Nashville, this store will be my first stop!
Jessica D
Lovely independent bookstore. Staff is very knowledgeable and I overheard many of them chatting with other customers about books while I was browsing. Bonus: they have a dog in the store!!
E Hegdahl
This bookstore is a gem. Beautiful glossy books, mile high shelves, happy service. I went for an event, a chat with an author, and it was such a fun night out.
Amy Hunter
Parnassus is one of my all-time favorite book stores! The staff is incredibly friendly & helpful, the book selection is fantastic, and the dogs are adorable. You need to stop by here if you're ever in Nashville :)
Jill Rich
This is a wonderful little book store. I was especially impressed with the children's section. It's the kind of place where book lovers could spend all day reading.
Jessica Beck
If you're in Nashville and love a good Indie bookstore, this is a must stop. Great selection, amazing kids, middle grade and YA section.
Baylee Pentico
Pre-ordered my mom a special book from Parnassus for Christmas - the staff was great about updates and the book arrived quickly after release. My mom was SO HAPPY - she cried when she opened it! Thank you for a great experience all the way from Western Colorado!
Peter Hannah
It is wonderful that small bookstores like this still exist. One does not go here to simply buy books. They go here to be among them, and to be with people of the same ilk.
Kevin Willis
Incredible independent bookstore with a fantastic, knowledgeable, and friendly staff. Strike a blow against the tyranny of Amazon and get your books here. If we want to have nice things, we have to support them.
Tamara Faulstich
Ann Patchett is one of my favorite writers. I wanted to go see her bookstore. I was not disappointed.
Wayne Ferguson
Parnassus is a piece of heaven. The staff members are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Whether you are ordering from them online or via telephone (I live three and a half hours away) or whether you are in the store visiting (like I was a few days ago), the service experience is truly special. The selection in-house is spectacular - but they are happy to order for you what they don't have in stock - and the store's atmosphere is so welcoming. Please support independent bookstores - but this one, in particular!
Isaac James
Lovely book store with helpful staff. Will happily order books not in stock. Also a great source of small gifts. Great curation by the staff makes this a must visit when in Nashville.
Kimberly Wilks
It is everything you think of when you think about an independent bookstore. Loved the entire atmosphere and the fact they have a section for banned books. Staff were very kind and helpful.
Jasmin Rosil
Gorgeous store. Gorgeous selection. Come here if you are looking for the best new books. Bookstores live!
Amy Deatherage
I love this store! Cutest bookstore ever!! The staff is so friendly. And my children are in love with the kid's area!
Magan Newton
It's the most beautiful bookstore. Friendly staff. Super easy to support - allow for pre-orders and quick pickup!
Darlene Sweeney
It has a very cozy feel, and they people are really nice. I wish this bookstore was close to where I live!
Julie Bennett
Very nice little book store with a huge selection of books. I was there for a Rodney Crowell book signing. It was the perfect venue.
Andrea S.
A very pretty place! Great variety of books. I loved it
Josh Caldwell
Independent book shop with a wide variety of books, a little children's area and very nice staff!
zack stout
The absolute best bookstore in Nashville! The staff is amazing, it really is the best place to get a book!
Andy Lane
Great bookshop.
Great staff. And they had the book I was looking for !!
Hal Brodsky
Great staff! Very helpful. Plenty of books signed by Anne Pratchett and other lesser authors.
Ryan Lacy
Excellent bookstore. The staff were very helpful and they had so many books to choose from. I love finding local bookstores, they are so charming, and this one is no exception.
Susan Andrews
Parnassus is a mecca for bibliophiles, hosting 300 events a year. This bookstore is a great place to discover new authors you will enjoy. The book signings are a treat.
Jenna Holt
Wanted to check out an independent bookstore while I was in town, and I could not have made a better decision on where to go. Huge variety, with high quality books and staff!!!
Beth Huizenga
A very nice bookstore - and I'm a fan of Ann Patchett and have read many of her books - but the huge leak in the bathroom sink (probably at the rate of about a gallon per half an hour) truly bummed me out. Staff didn't seem to care. Fresh water is a limited, precious resource so it matters. It really does.
Keith Fame
Rodney Crowell! What an amazing event. Sound system could use some tweaking, but....
Thank y'all for hosting this event!
Nelson Andrews
Fantastic book store! I went buy to pick up a book my daughter needs for school, and it was a great experience.
The Parnassus team is friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about their business.
They even recommended a good locally-owned coffee shop nearby.
Everything was outstanding.
Hannah Wilkinson
Fantastic collection. Excellent children's section. Dogs!!! A great spot for tourists and locals alike.
Coming back three years later. This is my favorite bookstore and the highlight of my visits to Nashville.
I don't have children, but I usually spend the most time in the children's section, picking things up for my nieces and nephews. They have such a curated collection that everything your eye lands on is a gem.
We had a dog this time, and everyone was so sweet to her.
Jill McGarr
What an incredible, independent bookstore!
Erin Martin
I absolutely loved this charming bookstore. It has an amazing selection, is displayed beautifully, and has comments throughout to help you know if a book is right for you. All of the employees were helpful and kind - they seem passionate about helping you find a book that you will love, while still letting you just experience the store on your own. Highly recommend.
J Anderson
Wonderful book signing tonight, celebrating CITY OF GHOSTS new release, with Victoria Schwab. Magical evening!
Douglas Bisson
This bookstore is a Nashville gem. Though rather small, this store has a big selection The staff are courteous, knowledgeable and helpful. I am so glad the owners insist that employees and customers wear masks.
Haley Maguire
Best bookstore in town! They have the nicest employees who can direct you to books based on what you've enjoyed in the past. Curbside pickup has been a life saver and they have recently reopened with new covid protocols that are much appreciated. I felt safe the entire time in the shop and appreciate the extra steps they are taking to keep our community safe.
Suzanne Fortenberry
This amazing bookstore is a must-stop when traveling through Nashville. We brought our little dog with us and the staff was incredibly helpful with all of our inquiries.
Brian Halma
Great indie book store - very good selection, friendly and helpful staff, a store dog - all of this, and owned by noted author Ann Padgett.
They do a number of events, and one of the few (possibly only) new book stores in Nashville.
Great place to browse books.
They also have very strong, reasonable covid protocols in place.
Amy Coletta
A bookstore owned by one of my favorite authors, staffed by book lovers, with dogs roaming free throughout the aisles...heaven. This is my happy place and a model for brick and mortar bookstores. I don't even read many physical books anymore, I'm almost ashamed to admit. The convenience of carrying an entire library in my purse via my iPad is why I'm able to cover so much reading ground each year. But a stop into Parnassus means I'll find perfect gifts for loved ones who are readers and always something for myself. I'll be traveling to Nashville next month and the one must see spot is Parnassus. This time, I'll probably need to ship packages back, now that I can linger there indefinitely. Leave yourself plenty of time to browse and enjoy!
Kayla Busick
Wonderful selection of fiction, non-fiction, children's books, and signed copies! Everyone that works there is exceptionally nice and helpful with their recommendations!
The selection of children's books is excellent. They have your favorites, and others that are soon to be favorites.
Their selection of independent publishers is also good. They also have a large YA lit section. If you're in the area, this is a must stop!
Cyndael Thomas
Fabulous! I could spend all day here. If you love bookstores find a place to live near here so you can live a happy and enriched life.
Anthony Hamblin
Staff very knowledgeable and helpful. The bookshop dogs were sooo cool. They were rescue dogs and Charlie/Charles was is a fine ambassador of the bookstore! Would recommend this place.
Lynette Stebleton
Love the selection. Great place to spend time enjoying books
Chris Clapp
Very charming and enchanting independent store. They are filling the void left by Davis-Kidd. A perfect store for families and book enthusiasts. Very knowledgeable staff. Great layout, cute decor, thoughtful design. The store has tons of in-store events as well. Lots of fun. This store is a go to place for an experience beyond discount book purchasing. They are all about connecting with the community. Go there -many times- you won't regret it.
Andrew Frisch
A cool little bookstore. Friendly staff. They have tons of options for fans of fiction. I do wish they had more non-fiction though, as the fiction seemed to outnumber it by about 10:1.
Juli
One of my favorite indie bookstores in town. Plus it's co-owned by the fabulous Ann Patchett. The store has lots of choices and genre categories. The staff is extremely knowledgeable. I personally love their children's books section - lots of variety and really cute decoration. Also the shop dogs are wonderful to have around while browsing. And if you ever need a literary gift, all of Ann's books are signed!
Lorraine Brogan
High praise for a bookshop that occasionally has dogs. Unfortunately, a real opportunity was missed since you won’t find any books from the Chet & Bernie series by Spencer Quinn on its shelves.
Sarah Womack
The book store has a decent selection. I had planned to buy a couple of books but the sales clerks were too impatient, so I didn't.
Michael Piper
Our favorite bookstore in Nashville since Bookman/Bookwoman closed. It is all new books but always a fascinating and well curated selection and very helpful staff.
Chrissy
Love coming in. Everyone is always nice and they have a great selection of books. Definitely my favorite bookstore.
Erik Koehler
Beautiful store with a great selection, friendly staff, and always host events for book signings and promotions. They have some more obscure stuff too which was a nice surprise. The only major complaint is that there isn't enough of it. It's a small store but they make great use of what they have. Also, if i was a kid still, I would love their kids section.
C.J. Trachta
If you want friendly and helpful staff plus a well curated collection of books, this is the best bookstore in Nashville! They sometimes even have store pups! They also have a wide selection of signed books. Overall it's comfortable, affordable, and pleasant!
Brent Holcomb
The best bookstore, period. Ann Patchett fans, rejoice! Parnassus Books is the Patchett mothership! Their subscription service offers a different signed, first edition book delivered to your house every month. They support the best authors in the business and truly love books. Take my money!
P.S. They offer Tuesday (publication-day) Instagram video posts by Ann and the staff. They are fantastic at keeping readers in the loop, and if you can't actually get to the bookstore, they make you feel like you are there looking around for a new favorite book to take home.
Spencer Rabon
Parnassus is my favorite bookstore in the world!! They have such an interesting array of books and other goods. The employees are always so helpful, and I love just talking to them (and petting their cute dogs). Despite the current pandemic they have been keeping the literary spirit alive and working so hard to provide for and educate the Nashville community. Parnassus is always there when I need it most.
Jessica Opalinski
Every book lover in the Nashville area needs to stop by Parnassus Books at least once. It's an independent bookseller like nothing else you'll find. The collection is carefully curated by dedicated and friendly staff. The bookstore itself is very elegant inside with soft places to sit and read, a small stage for guest speakers, and - my favorite part - a small column like entryway children or flexible adults can duck through to reach the kids' books.
The design section is fantastic; I always find something new. Many books have autographed copies. And of course don't leave until you've seen at least one of the dogs that frequent the shop! Last time he followed us around and then feel asleep on my husband's feet. It was the best afternoon.
Avram Granett
A really nice book store in the middle of the mall. There was an impressive stage in the center of the store for author readings that could have been (and perhaps it was) a stage set for television shows - setup with great lighting, a comfy couch and an interviewing chair.
The book selections were well curated and there was a good children's book section behind the stage set. The staff were friendly and helpful.
We were surprised to find a four-legged employee ; a very friendly elderly K-9 looking to get his back or stomach scratched.
Kiri Ladd
This independently owned bookstore is awesome. The store is in a nice location, neat and clean, and carries a wide variety of books.
They host multiple types of events including author signings. The staff is very friendly and helpful, from suggesting books to informing readers of visiting authors when noticing them perusing their books.
Oh Yankee
Lovely store and lovely people. They were helpful in explaining what happened with the book I ordered but failed to pick up.
jenni roselle
Parnassus is a bookstore that feels warm and welcoming-a place to spend hours. The staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and kind. The in store events are always top notch. The selection is carefully and beautifully curated. This is a true gem. Grateful to have such a wonderful local bookstore.
Sean Busick
You should be shopping local.
The world needs more great independent book shops like Parnassus. They have a wonderful selection. They regularly host events with authors. The staff is super friendly and knowledgeablethey would love to help you find your next favorite book. And Parnassus is a kid-friendly shop with an excellent section of children's books. I highly recommend them.
Stephanie Pereira
Believe the hype! I love this wonderful little book shop. Friendly staff, great selection, beautiful store and layout. I always feel welcomed and the cashier will usually have a nice chat about my purchase.
SZ Hecht
Had a great visit. Helpful staff recharged me after a long drive from PA by way of Kentucky. Cheerful, super well stocked, friendly and comfortable for all ages. Wish for more Indies of this quality throughout the US.
s case
Great book shop. I felt pressure to wear a mask which was unpleasant. Other than that I would recommend.
Joseph Ostenson
A beautiful bookstore, worth a side trip, if only to remember what bookstores used to be. Saturday's are the best days to visit, often with live music or author signings. But you can browse any day and count on the staff having selected the best new and classic titles you've never heard of, shelved alongside the familiar and the best selection of local titles in Tennessee. I never regret paying full price for a book at Parnassus.
John Burkholder-Travis
Owned by a writer, this book store is for book lovers. They have talks on the weekends with visiting writers. They have all the right books, and we even ended up picking up a puzzle to do that evening. Their children selection is fantastic as well and it's organized by age range making it easy to find the right thing.
Andy Runyan
This is everything a great local book store should be. There are lots of author events, storytimes for the kiddos, shop dogs that hang out at the store, not to mention a great selection of books and if they don't have something the staff is happy to help get it for you or recommend an alternative. They have an excellent kids section with a train set to play with in addition to a large selection of books.
Emily Mayes
Loved the atmosphere of this small bookstore. I was visiting Nashville for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend and we scored some beautiful books for our collection, including a gorgeous illustrated Peter Pan.
Ora B
I love this local bookstore. Its cozy, has a great selection of books including a section for local authors. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. I go here whenever I decide to purchase a book if I can
Patrick Dasher
A last bastion of independent booksellers. The atmosphere is wonderfully quirky, and the selection of books is first rate, including many titles I'd never seen at other brick and mortar stores. Well worth your time to check out, and that's an understatement.
Carrie Finnegan
Thank goodness for Parnassus! I love having a real bookstore nearby. Everyone that works there is a ninja-level reader and can point you to the perfect book. The last time I went there I had such a lovely conversation with the staff about the books we read, I didn't really want to leave. Also, for a strip mall location, the place has great ambience! Parking is a little competitive at lunchtime, but its worth it! And the rest of the day its usually front row availability.
Jason Maynard
Wow! They have resurrected the indie bookstore in Nashville like a Phoenix bursting forth on fire. FANTASTIC STAFF! Very knowledgeable and friendly. Excellent author events. And they are expanding. If they don't have what you are looking for on the shelf, it is possible (if you are there early enough) to have it the next day ... no shipping charges either. Walk over from The Perch with your coffee and enjoy some book browsing.
Amy Kammerman
Great local bookstore. Friendly staff are great with recommendations, ordering books they don't have in stock and just chatting about books in general. Love shopping here and it is hard to browse and not leave with something fun.
theresa a
Love books!!! Devices have their convenience but nothing replaces a hand held book!!!! Great kiddo area. Great guest speakers. Great atmosphere. Love that the store is locally owned. Highly recommend.
Adrian Warren
Interesting book store they were busy and hosting an author when we were there. The selection didn't really appeal to me, but if you are looking for local authors it seems like a great source. The kids section seemed to be well stocked as well.
Franko Hashiguchi
Well-stocked shelves, many helpful employees, everyone in store respectful and properly masked. One employee stationed at the door to interview, temp check, and offer sanitizer to patrons. Wonderful experience.
Annette B
They have an eclectic selection of books by authors both famous and just plain good! The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. I was able to find Jacksonland, a book that the big box store I'd been to didn't have, as well as a Peter Beagle book I didn't know he'd written (also not in the big box store).
Larry Garland
I moved here a little over a year ago from NYC. I love this independent bookstore! Thanks Ann Patchett and Karen Hayes for enriching the literary life of Nashville and environs through conception and implementation of your joint vision.
Tricia Cox
We were fortunate enough to attend the book release of an old friend. We arrived a little after the presentation started and there were no chairs. I used my husband for support and decided to try to walk without my wheelchair as I was having a fairly good day. I collapsed at the front counter where my husband explained I was disabled and requested a chair. The sweet lady at the register arranged for chairs to be brought out for us both at the front of the room where our friend was. It was a wonderful environment with a very kind staff. We look forward to visiting again and thank you for supporting Rea Frey.
Kelly Parry
My mom and I made a special trip to Nashville to visit Parnassus Books and we weren't disappointed! We loved exploring every corner of the shop and listening while parents read books to children in the children's section and the staff assisted shoppers in finding what they needed. A great place to spend the afternoon, gives us hope for the future of independent shops!
John Cheeseman
Ordered from them through an online marketplace and I was very pleased at both the speed of delivery and condition of the book. Since then I've ordered several other books from other retailers and it's been a disappointing experience. After a little research I found that a lot of the quaint sounding "mom and pop" book stores are actually just fronts for larger companies that just warehouse books and give little to no customer service. The service you get from a place like Parnassus has made me a proud supporter of independently owned, sole proprietor book shops (and other small businesses in general).
Isabella Bartolucci
I absolutely adore this bookstore. They have a great selection, helpful staff, and shop dogs!
David Reichstein
My mom came from out of town and one of her to-do highlights was to come to this bookstore. They have a wide range of books for adults including a section of books by nashville authors. They have a fantastic biography section. My four year old absolutely loves the children’s section. They had Girl Scout cookies too!
Masiray Koroma
Friendly and helpful staff. Inviting atmosphere. Great kids area with well-curated book selection and a train table for kids to play at. Quick and easy to order a book they don't have that you want.
paula joyner
So glad to have a locally-owned bookstore. Appreciated the help of staffers (fellow readers), enjoyed the shopping crowd (fellow book-lovers), and stumbling upon the "Local Authors" section. A store that reminds us, in every way, why bookstores need to exist.
Adriane Powell
The best kind of bookstore. It even smells like books and what could be better than that! Amazon does not smell like books, that’s for sure. Parnassus is not too big, very well organized and with treasures like a shelf just for Patchett Picks (that’s Ann Patchett for those of you not in the know). Lovely children’s area and lots of great events with amazing authors. Carve out an hour or three and go visit. Give them all your money. It will enrich your life.
Susan Mueller
Parnassus Book store is a fine bookstore, albeit smaller than I had expected. It has an excellent selection of books including recent releases by well-respected writers. (Ann Patchett is one of the owners.) Located near Vanderbilt U., it is off the beaten track.
Colin Peterson
The reason you come here is for the staff. You can buy a book anywhere, but nowhere in Nashville will you be able to come into a bookstore looking for a gift for someone else (or yourself) with just some random ideas and come out with an Amazing book that you didn't even know you wanted. The staff know so many books and genres and what's new and hot, and what's a classic. From Children's Books, History, Fiction, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, YA, Drama... Parnassus' staff is worth the jacket price.
Writer Quirk (Shalena)
This is the kind of hometown bookstore you want - cozy, intimate, and beautiful - with the added bonus of having a selection that doesn't suffer from the smaller space. The booksellers have been friendly and accommodating every time I've visited, and there are usually interesting displays set up that catch my eye. On top of all this, Parnassus hosts many well-known and up-and-coming authors, and their events are always fun.
Deborah Townsend
If supporting local businesses is what you are about please spend time at Parnassus Books. The atmosphere is welcoming and the selection is large. The other plus is the staff is knowledgeable and fully engaged with the customers. It is nice way to spend your time and money!:)
Max Dorsey-Gordon
My fiancee loves the dog and decor. Bathrooms were clean and amazingly decorated. Staff was friendly and helpful.
This worked out well because she was definitely not in the mood to kill time and the beautiful business relaxed her immensely.
Nathan Stuckey
Really impressed by the sci-fi collection. Had mostly new authors I'd never heard of before (including N.K. Jemison who has now gotten me hooked), but they didn't neglect the classics. I even saw an Asimov title, hard to argue with a bookstore who still sells Asimov.
I did think their political section and new titles were decidedly one-sided, very much a progressive bookstore and not much good opposing literature (either conservative or libertarian). But it's a private bookstore, they're not going to make everyone happy and I don't think that should be the goal anyway. The goal should be selling what they want and curating a good selection from those kinds of books.
Also, their small section on classic works and philosophy seemed very balanced and thoughtful which is arguably more important than whether the curation of modern titles is politically balanced. Keep up the good work :)
James Walls
They are the best book store in Nashville. Atmosphere rocks. Prices too
Emera *
Ordered a book. Rebound Love by Leila Marie. The book arrived on time. The packaging was not damaged. The Representative I spoke to was Professional, Caring, and Provided Excellent Customer Service.
Noah H
What a fantastic local bookstore! The kid section is excellent. They have a fun train table set up that gets lots of attention. Plus the staff was really helpful in assisting us with finding what we were looking for. Will definitely be back!
Jenn Floodstrom
Awesome bookstore for a short or long visit. The train table makes it a great place to hang out and look for books with your toddler on a rainy day. So many great book choices!
Charity Jackson
I love Parnassus! They have a fantastic selection, such a cozy spot and the people that work there are always so friendly and helpful! Definitely a favorite for book worms like me 🙂 …
LaCresha Kolba
Great quaint little bookstore with exceptional staff.
They are always holding events to meet authors and inspire readers and writers in the community.
They also offer The Porch which is a place to take writing workshops.
Check them out!
Kit Potter
Parnassus has grown and thrived. More books than ever. I walked in, was asked whether I was looking for something, got it, bought it, and left. Really terrific service.
Ashli
This is the best bookstore and they always have great events and recommendations.
Alice Sanford
Easy to browse in your area of interest. All staff members are omnivorous readers. Bookstore supports cultural life of Nashville! See their website or FB for current events and authors.
Ashley Braquet
Our favorite bookstore. Everyone is friendly here, and we often find ourselves talking with other customers about books they like. They've created a special place that is captivating at any age.
RJ Ryan
Great place to shop! Staff is friendly and helpful. It's a medium sized store, not gigantic, but I found what I was looking for.
Hunter LeBlanc
Best bookstore in the area. Staff are professional and ready to help whenever. They are taking the pandemic seriously and have implemented masks-only, social distancing, and an in-store customer limit.
Hanna Henscheid
I love Parnassus SO much. I come here all the time, but Saturday was especially awesome. Court helped me find books for my preschooler, spending time to talk to me and understand exactly what I was looking for. So cool. Couldn't love this place more.
Susan Andrews
Wonderful books in a welcoming space added to staff who can point you right to the best books for you to get for kids and friends makes this an A+ bookstore. The author events are interesting, too.
Devon Tutak
Lovely bookshop. Doesn’t hurt that it’s owned by one of my favorite authors. The location (a strip mall) feels a bit random, but once inside, you’ll be in indie bookstore heaven.
Beth Taylor
I attended an author event - my first one. It was definitely a fun event, learning from the event’s author as well as many in the audience! I’ll definitely be back, just kind was hoping there would be coffee too.
Jonathan Vargas
Love this bookstore! Davis Kidd was great, but this store is for lovers of books and the people that champion them! It would be a sad day if this venue closed, so please support it.
Stuart Ray
As good as a bookstore gets. Thoughtfully stocked, wisely staffed, charmingly decorated, and warmly canined. A must-do place for a Nashville visit. (I am biased by family link)
Cyn L
Great little book store, lots of fun little stuff to buy. I really appreciate the fact that they have authors come by and do book signings even in such a small location. Really enjoyed it!
Alfonso Llamas
Amazing bookstore! Every time I've wandered in they've had interesting events going on and great recommendations. Really great kids area as well.
Ben Rankin
This bookstore wins on atmosphere. the place makes you want to stay a while and the kids section is outstanding. This place is everything bookstores try to be and often fail.
Julia Taylor
I loved Parnassus Books it was such a relaxed bookstore. I loved how they had everything so cute and organized. Also they had dogs walking around which was adorable. I will definitely be coming back.
Joshua Smith
Awesome locally owned bookstore. Huge selection and very helpful staff
Joe Dundas
Wants to be a sophisticated independent bookstore yet has a ton of King and Patterson on the shelves and nothing by Spencer Quinn.
Jackie Nowak
We had a wonderful time browsing books, petting dogs and talking to staff. Also buying books and other items.
holly mcchesney
Great experience and the coolest events!
Roger Conner
Quite simply, the most important book store in Nashville. An old fashioned store where the staff knows about books and is content for you to browse or sit and read. Great place.
Andrea Zalewski
This place makes me miss Davis Kidd a little less. Fantastic selection, warm atmosphere, and always gracious customer service. Shop local! Keep our book store alive!
Li Lin
Great independent book store with flair! Lots of fun and quirky items. Great people work there.. felt very welcome!
Chris McGuffin
I absolutely love Parnassus! I always seem to find something here that I probably wouldn't see at a chain bookstore. And they have a ton of signed copies. Staff is very friendly as well.
Allyson Crossman
Very nice book store. Has a large number of signed copies. They also have an extensive list of visiting authors. Very well worth the visit!
Jack
They are being careful. Let only a certain number of folks in at a time. But worth the wait and employees as helpful as ever! Can order online and they will bring to car looks like.
Adam Mckamey
Great little bookstore with a lot to choose from. The staff are very friendly and there is a really cool dog that wonders around. The prices seemed to all be at full retail so I doubt you'll find a deal but selection and atmosphere makes up for the few dollars you would save at a big chain store.
Kk Dabbs
College-aged salesperson, Sarah, is exactly why people come here. The selection is thoughtful and incredibly, but it only impacts the customer when the staff is approachable, listens, and knows the inventory and the subject matter. We were looking for a biography of Harper Lee and Sarah not only introduced us to The Biography of Atticus Finch (which was more in line worth what we wanted), but also turned us on to a TEDX talk by the author. I can order a book on Amazon. I go to Parnassus to discover a book. Thrilled they exist and wish Atlanta had anything close. BTW- if you are buying children’s books to broaden minds, there is no place like PB. And the dogs. Don’t get me started.
Nancy Kirkland
Great store - has what you need when you need it. And you are likely to see a celeb, too. Rodney Crowell was getting his books gift wrapped and was happy to talk to me about his selection!
Amy Rogers
Had to stop at Ann Patchett's bookstore while in Nashville. Great selection and engaging atmosphere.
Matthew Noel
The staff was friendly and knowledgeable, as one would expect of a good bookseller. The store itself has a welcoming feel and made me feel at home while perusing.
Gabe Acevedo
High quality bookstore, very pretty to see all the books and stuff. Good selection of books for people of all ages. Nice place to sit down and read stuff too.
j phillips
This place the reason we need to have physical bookstores still
Great selection that is well curated. Staff that knows what they are doing great kids section and plenty of interesting special events and book signings.
Claudio Mosse
You tell them what books you liked. They make other recommendations. It always works...weird. Great selection, helpful staff and store dogs. What else can a reader want?
Carly Pugh
LOVED the selection and atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back!
Brandon Roth
The location was surprising, but once you walk in—wow! What a beautiful place with helpful and friendly folks working there. Everything a book store ought to be on the inside.
William Emfinger
Great local bookstore with amazing selection across a wide range of categories. Each shelf has many recommendation highlights with blurbs from the owner that are really helpful!
Michaela May
Very cute location! Went in for a book signing and they were very nice. Good lowkey bookstore for you to take your kids to.
Katie B
I love Parnassus! I wish I didn't live so far so I could frequent it more. They always have the books I'm looking for and I love their independent book store feel.
Teri Windham
Parnassus is always my go to for my next read. And I love the author interviews and book signings.
Hamilton Gayden
What a great place to wander the shelves. I miss neighborhood bookstores; this lovely spot in Nashville has inspired me to track one down in SE Michigan.
Alex Lawhorne
I don't know why this came up as a used bookstore. It's not. But in any event, it's cool inside, they have good selection, and if you were gonna go to Barnes and Noble you're better off going here.
Jo Brake
Charming book store with creative displays, play areas for children, and more. Getting the opportunity to have the Property Brothers sign a book for you there is definitely a plus! 👍 …
Allen Dennis
Very nice independent bookstore. I saw titles I expected to see, and in a 30' visit, ten more interesting titles I was very interested to learn about. Highly recommended.
Katherine T Williams
Nothing smells so good as new books! And Parnassus has it all, great service from knowledgeable booksellers in a beautiful and comfortable setting, wide assortment of books for all interests, and the lovely scent of books!

Can’t go wrong with this local book store. If they don’t have it they will order it for you. They have a great selection of kids books as well. Very family friendly.
Bryant Brabson
Once the retail landscape was blessed with numerous successful independent bookstores. Times change, and few bookstores survived extinction. Parnassus harkens back to a simpler time when physical bookstores were alive and well.
Andy Miller
Friendly staff (and shop dogs). I really like all the staff recommendations; it makes it easier to find a new book I might not have otherwise checked out.
Michael Jenkins
Awesome little book shop. Great place to go for signed copies of books.
Denese Peebles
How can you not love a real honest-to-goodness bookstore? Picked up a great book from a local author when I was in. Definitely put this on your list.

Good independent bookstore. I prefer used book stores but needed to get the new Stephen King so I went here.
I would go back.
