Hartfield Book Company

A cozy, but light-filled independent bookstore that packs a lot into its historic downtown storefront. The book selection is excellent, covering local, classic, and modern titles for all ages. And the book-lovers merchandise is exceptional, including some of the best that brands like Out of Print, Fly Paper, Litographs, and Ideal Bookshelf have to offer. If BabyLit is your thing, you'll find several titles here. If Harry Potter items are on your list, you'll have a few to choose from. If you're looking for books on Illinois, they're right up front, with pets and nature just around the corner from them. In the back, you'll find a beverage station and a reading room — perfect for sorting through your options before buying or for recharging your book-loving introvert energy before resuming your shopping trip.

A great indie bookstore! Nicole and her staff are helpful and great folks! Highly recommended!

A fantastic bookstore with a wide range of selections, located along Monticello's courthouse square. Always, when searching for a book, call your local bookstore. They can easily order it for you and you are then keeping your dollars "local" -- within your community or county.

An absolutely lovely store. Wonderful selection and extremely helpful staff. Didn’t have the exact book I wanted, so was offered to order it AND given another recommendation in the meantime, and I absolutely love the book recommended to me. Truly a step back in time where the store genuinely cares about their customers and is willing to go above and beyond to make sure they love their purchase. Can not recommend this store enough.

Lovely local independent bookstore. The workers are friendly and knowledgeable. They have a good selection in store and you can also order books online.
