Illume is a highly curated bookstore carrying new fiction and non-fiction titles. Illume is an experience for readers that's meant to showcase a careful selection of titles much in the same way an art gallery would display an exhibition. Titles are always shown "cover forward", and our inventory rotates to reflect current reader interests, shifting topics, and obscure finds.

Illume has artwork throughout the store - originals, giclées, notecards and more. Illume also carries guided journals, candles, vintage bookshelf games & the very popular Inspo prints! There is an ongoing customer chess game & a community puzzle - come join the fun! 

Come visit us in the beautiful seaside town of Newburyport, Massachusetts!
