About

The Bookmark has been owned and managed by Mrs Marjory Marshall since 2007.  Marjory personally selects every title and the astonishing range of stock squeezed into limited shelf space reflects her own eclectic and very varied reading interests.

The Bookmark stocks a wide range of titles, including latest releases, Scottish interest, crime & thrillers, and an extensive range of children’s books for all ages. In addition to our stock we are able to order books at customer’s request.

Independent Bookseller of the Year – shortlisted in 2013

Against stiff competition from retailers across the UK, The Bookmark was shortlisted for the prestigious Independent Bookseller of the Year Awards 2013 in two categories – for independent bookshop owner/manager and best childrens’ independent bookshop.    We are proud that Grantown’s high street bookshop can compete with the best in Britain.
