Bookworks

Bookworks occupies a special place in the heart of Whitefish, Montana, serving as both a beloved community bookstore and an essential stop for the thousands of visitors who pass through this mountain town on their way to Glacier National Park each year. The store's timber-frame building on Spokane Avenue exudes mountain charm, with a wood-burning stove that draws in browsers on cold winter days and a sunny front porch that fills with readers during the long summer evenings. The Glacier National Park section is unmatched, offering everything from geological surveys to hiking guides to bear-encounter memoirs, all curated by staff who know the park intimately. The children's section features a popular reading nook shaped like a bear den, where weekly story times are standing-room-only affairs. Whether you need a novel for the ski lodge or a field guide for the backcountry, Bookworks has exactly what you are looking for.
