Meet the Manager

Katie S.

Manager

Katie is a voracious reader and a genre jumper but gravitates towards historical fiction, food, and travel essays. And anything about Paris moves to the top of her list which is great since Healdsburg belongs to the Francophiles.

This is a usual stop on our bike rides through town, and is usually a nice stop. Today we had a different experience. My 3 year old and I always stop at the back corner table in the childrens book section, and he gets to choose a new book to bring home. He picked one and we went to check out. The book he picked rang up as $ 8.99, but the sticker price was $ 4.99 (as were all the other books of the same title). The cashier asked the manager and she made a comment that people change the stickers to pay a lower price upon checkout (indirectly directed at me). She asked me where I picked the book from and I directed her. She then walks back to the checkout after taking a look and prompts the cashier to change the price to $ 4.99 in the computer; without saying she was sorry, or anything at all for that matter, to me. I don’t mind the price at all. I definitely do mind being treated like that though.

I always make a point to stop at a local bookstore when we are traveling. (I have since learned there are several other Copperfield’s in the Sonoma/​Napa area.)
Copperfield’s had a good selection of books as well as cards and other gift items.
The store is quite spacious, but I felt they could have had more merchandise or made better use of the space. Nonetheless, it had a good feel.
While I didn’t really «need» another book, I found one of interest.

Undaunted, we ventured back into this bookstore on a return trip, and it was a whole different experience. We were promptly greeted, offered assistance, and had a nice chat with a lovely young women who rang up our purchase;. Later, we discovered that our friend Sheryl Cotleiur is now one of the booik buyers there. We have appreciated Sheryl’s expertise in Clean Well-​Lighted Place for Books in San Francisco, and then Book Passage in San Francisco and Corte Madera. What a lovely surprise to know that she’s now with Copperfield’s in Calistoga. Good for them, and lucky for us.

Will purchasing The Food52 Cookbook on sale for $ 12.99 keep this indie bookstore off the endangered species list?
Well it couldn’t hurt. #davidandgoliath

Great bookstore. However, the music that is being played is not conducive to browsing a bookstore. Please play classical or 40s-​50s Americana (Sinatra, Nat Cole, Ella Fitzgerald, etc.). Country rock is fine when I go to bars, but not bookstores.

Copperfields book store in Calistoga is a nice enough book store, but I have a major problem with them. Most book stores have a display of the New York Times best sellers either out in the window or in a prominent place inside of the store. Apparently Copperfields only displays best sellers by liberal authors, but never conservative authors. When Killing Lincoln, Killing Kennedy, or Killing Jesus were on the number one best sellers list, these books were no where to be found in the store. You had to ask for them. When I did this the clerk went in the back to get the book. Now that the best seller is America, Imagine a World Without Her, once again this book IS NOT on display. Therefore I buy my books elsewhere. BTW didn’t Costco just get thousands of complaints for doing this. They in turn put the best sellers back out due to these complaints.

I really liked this Copperfield’s and found a couple of Christmas presents there. It shares the space with a kitchen store which makes it interesting. I would have looked a lot longer at books and magazines if I hadn’t recently been to the new Copperfield’s in San Rafael which is much bigger.

This is a really nice bookstore in Calistoga. They have a decent selection of books and I like the way they have it set up. They have a bunch of tables with books organized by topic. They also have some sale books that are outside but some are inside too. They also have some cute gift items for sale. The people that work here are nice. I love coming here when I visit Calistoga. They do have a bathroom if you need that. Really this is a cute place to visit. You do have to park on the street but during the week its pretty easy. I’ve never been here on a weekend so can’t speak to parking then.

Great little independent bookstore in downtown Calistoga. We forgot our Napa guidebooks at home before embarking on our honeymoon, so we stopped in here to grab a couple to get us through the week. It looks like most items are sold at list price, but they have displays with a couple dozen titles in each section on sale. Always nice to support a local bookstore.

Wonderful bookstore! Really great selection and wonderful vibe. Diverse card selection. Could spend hours just walking around. Spent money in the store just to support a small bookstore if nothing else. If we don’t support our bookstores they will disappear.

When I am visiting a town I always check out the coffee shop and the book store.
When I entered, I was greeted. That’s always so nice. I enjoyed the two tables in the front of new fiction and non-​fiction. I picked up a book from each. In the middle of the store, they have clearanced books. That’s always a good thing.
The every day stock is mostly on the sides in shelving. Very small pickings from each category. One of the things they could do that would make it more like an independent store would be to have staff recommendations on cards throughout the store. This is one of my favorite things in smaller stores, but their staff recommendations are up at the cash registers. So I didn’t see it until I was already checking out. That isn’t smart merchandising. The cash registers are for convenience items… must haves. I’d love to see recommendations throughout the store so I can make my book decisions before checking out.

Copperfield’s Calistoga is the northernmost outpost of books in the Napa Valley. It’s great for impulse purchases, perusing the magazines, checking out the sale section, and listening to the relaxing music. There are couches and chairs to snuggle up on a rainy day.
There isn’t as much a selection of magazines as the Napa store, but it’s good for Calistoga. Their religion/​spirituality/​philosophy section could use some expansion, and the community billboard shows the quirkiness of UpValley life.

Always unique — always a pleasure.
Great gift ideas. Go alone so you can pick up some special stuff for the ones you love.

Although the building is small, the store is laid out in small intimate sections that make you feel at home. I can spend hours here exploring the books, games and trinkets that they carry.

Copperfield’s may not have every book you’re looking for and you may wind up paying full price for your book, but it definitely fills a gap in Napa Valley retail. If you’ve come to the Valley to relax and misplaced or finished your trashy novel– have no fears. Copperfield’s to the rescue! (There’s other locations throughout the Valley if Calistoga is out of your way)
Copperfield’s also has a good selection of magazines, nic nacks, and Napa Valley-​related literature. If you’ve had lunch at Mustards, Terra, or Tra Vigne and want to create the magic at home, Copperfield’s has an extensive cookbook selection to help you. This is a great place to buy a gift, also.

This place was an unexpected pleasant surprise. I happened to find a board game I’ve been wanting for a long time for $ 10 less than I could find anywhere else (Ebay and Amazon) so that made my day. My other half found a photography book he was interested in for also $ 10 less than on Amazon. We did, however, pick from the clearance and sale sections. The sticker price for the game was higher than the list price should have been (perhaps why they still had it in stock). It was fun to browse around and kill some time before heading out for some wine tasting.

Everyone has their «thing» that they do when they are on trip to somewhere they’ve never been. My «thing» just so happens to be checking out all the independent book stores. After a depressing trip to an independent book store in St. Helena, I was excited to hear that there was another one only a few miles away in Calistoga.
This place is pretty large and has a great selection of books. Lots of good Napa Valley books and plenty of discounted books. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the music was nice and soothing.
If you’re in the area, especially if you’re going to hang out at the hot springs, stop by here and get a book or magazine to read. They have plenty!

There is something about this place that makes you want to stay awhile and pay full price. There is a great kids section and comfortable chairs and a very entertaining nic nac/​pop culture assortment.

This is a really nice bookstore. It’s got a decent magazine selection, gifts, and cards, in addition to books. Even yoga mats! The books are neat too, and they have chairs scattered about so that you can read in the store. Pleasant atmosphere.
