The best bookshops Manche

In the immediate vicinity of Mont Saint-Michel, while restaurants, hotels and tourist shops are legion, supermarkets and means of obtaining everyday consumer goods are more scarce. And here, more than anywhere else, it is important to anticipate and prepare your visit to the site! Les Galeries du Mont-Saint-Michel is a succession of shops where you'll find just about everything, and which includes several signs: a large bakery / sandwich shop, and a vast store - whose dimensions are reminiscent of a supermarket - where you'll find savoury and sweet products, a bookshop area... nothing is missing. From here, you can take the shuttles (right in front of you) to reach the Mount in a few minutes.

Le Détour bookstore offers an in-store purchasing service, as well as the possibility of picking up orders in-store. It offers a selection of books in various genres, including detective and thriller. Current favourites include Nicolas Ferraro's Notre dernière part de ciel, translated by Alexandra Carrasco-Rahal. This novel tells the story of Keegan and Zambrano, two drug traffickers whose plane carrying cocaine crashes in Argentina. They must then recover their cargo, which is scattered across the countryside.

A shop like no other in the heart of Saint-Lô: La Voie du Tambour. Lovers of esotericism and shamanic themes, this place is made for you. Thus, you will find not only books, but also card games (especially tarot cards), accessories, stones, scented objects and other intriguing curiosities! Coming here is also to benefit from advice, whether you are already familiar with these themes or simply curious. A shop that is not only original, but also inspiring for many!

It is just a stone's throw from the port of Granville that you will find this bookshop, a must in the town, and easily recognisable with its obviously blue front. The choice is vast: no less than 20,000 titles are waiting for you here: the latest literary novelties, but also comic books, a very nice space for the youngest, regional books and works dedicated to the arts to offer... Finally, l'Encre Bleue is also a very nice stationery shop, where nothing is missing for your needs.

It's the city's biggest bookshop, and very popular with Cherbourgeois. There's nothing lacking, and the shelves on several floors are vast and well-maintained, with all the new titles you could wish for and, of course, many nuggets. In short, a charming bookshop offering books for young and old and for all tastes: youth, teens, comics, humor, detective stories, arts, literature, practicality and humor. Here, advice is not an empty word, and signing sessions are held regularly.

It is one of the temples of culture and leisure. In addition to traditional stationery objects, the store is also an almost comprehensive bookstore, where both local and current literature are found. On the first floor, the bookshop continues, and creative recreation is present, as well as a space dedicated to the youngest. Finally, on the second floor, the fine arts are honoured, especially the materials needed for coaching.

This is one of the nicest bookshops in the Cotentin capital. The store still offers a wide range of books for young people, history, fine books and novels, as well as storytelling workshops for the little ones and meetings with authors. Our passionate team will advise you on the best choices to make! In parallel, Les Schistes Bleus (a reference to the local stone) is also a delightful tea room where you can take a break while wandering around the town centre.

This vast boutique was opened almost 3 years ago by two former colleagues, who offer second-hand products for younger customers. On one side, Kestadi, on the other, Grenier des Enfants, each of the two entities offering its own products, with a similar objective: stop wasting, yes to recycling and low prices. Please note that what you'll find here is guaranteed to be in perfect condition. A great initiative!
