Review from Melodie S.

This is my new favorite new bookstore. Nothing will ever beat out the smell and experience of a really fantastic used bookstore, but I love what has been done with McIntyre's. It is just small enough to feel relaxed and intimate, but the selection is absolutely phenomenal. There is no wasted space here, yet does not feel at all crowded or cramped. Many tables and shelves are denoted as "Staff Picks" with enticing notes about why each book is lauded.
Great big chairs await you in the adjacent mystery/non-fiction/cooking sections. The staff was VERY helpful while not-obtrusive-(I am a quiet browser and like my space). They host regular weekly events and book signings. I will be driving the 13 miles from Cary for my book shopping. McIntyre's is an experience.
Specialties
Our exceptional collection features fiction and non-fiction from local and nationally recognized authors, young adult and children's books, lifestyle books, a fabulous mystery section and much more, all presented in an English library setting with a fireplace, wing backed chairs and clusters of cozy rooms perfect for browsing. In addition to regular community events like Pre-School Story Hour and Pete's Literary Open Mic Nights, we host special events with fantastic authors and poets throughout the year.
History
Established in 1989
On April 20, 1989, the Fitch family opened the doors to McIntyre's Fine Books, so named in honor of RB Fitch's mother.
The guiding vision was that the bookstore should be a reflection of signifying characteristics of Fearrington. The shop features strong cooking and gardening sections (a reflection of the five star Fearrington House Inn's amenities) as well as strong fiction, mystery, and children's collections. It is as all great bookshops should be: a place to get lost in.
