Best New Bookstore

Garrison Keillor has been losing money on bookstores for years, and yet he opened Common Good Books near Macalester College in St. Paul. A good independent bookstore is a treasure, and this one offers a goldmine of discoveries for lovers of great writing, interesting ideas, and places where you can just hang out with a cup of coffee and escape the glowing maw of the Internet.
