Bookshops in Galwayđź“š
Let’s be honest, the climate of the West of Ireland is simply perfect for bookworms. Long dark winters and showery summers mean it is essential to have a selection of good reads close to hand when you get cold feet about going outside. More importantly Galway is the leading city Ireland, outside of Dublin for literary cultural events with the CĂşirt International Festival of Literature and Galway International Arts Festival drawing some of the best talents to the city annually. Most importantly Galway has some of the best bookshops in Ireland. Charlie Byrne’s was recently awarded Best Irish Independent Bookshop 2019. Other great shops include the Bell, Book and Candle second hand bookshop, Easons and Dubrays to name but a few. So get yourself in from the cold and relax in one of these great bookshop to find some great reading to enjoy.
