In the latest Hudson Valley Word of Mouth segment from Julia Joern, a visit with Kristi Gibson, proprietor of the Magpie Bookshop. Located in the village of Catskill, her independent secondhand used bookstore is housed on two floors in a building right on Main Street. Magpie Bookshop is a place to lose yourself for an afternoon of browsing, dreaming of far away places, and traveling into other people's worlds. You'll discover classics you always meant to read, but never did, and one-of-a-kind rare finds. A passionate bibliophile, Kristi shares her own stories about living and working in Catskill, traveling cross-country on the hunt for books, the grassroots efforts of the Hudson Valley Book Trail, and why she loves escaping into nature on her day off. Find her at Magpie Bookshop and on Instagram at Come to Catskill.
