R.J. Julia Booksellers

Description:

• Many would be surprised to find that one of the premier independent bookstores, albeit a small one compared to the sheer size of a store like Powell's in Portland, in the country is located in Madison, just a 15-minute drive from New Haven. R.J. Julia has been the most unique and appealing independent bookseller in the area since 1989, with a small café and coffee shop as well as a huge area dedicated to children's books, right on the Post Road. Stepping into R.J. Julia is like venturing into a Victorian home, filled with books and trinkets galore. One of the best reasons to show up here is to hear one of the numerous, noted authors promote their latest works and there is a book event nearly every day. Plenty of big names are attracted to this bookstore which caters to young and old, and will do their best to ensure you can get what you need.
