M. Judson Booksellers

For a variety of reasons, we make the 5-ish-hour drive from Lexington to Greenville, SC, a few times a year. And whenever we’re there, one of my favorite downtown places to visit is M. Judson Booksellers.

How can you possibly go wrong with a bright, sunny bookstore in a historic building? Especially when it’s filled with novels, booksellers’ recommendations, local- and regional-interest books (both fiction and nonfiction), gifts, puzzles, cookbooks, a large and inviting children’s section, and … cupcakes!

When you’re in the Upstate, we highly recommend a visit to the ever-cheerful M. Judson.
