If you haul your sweet self another 15 minutes on Mass Ave, you'll find yourself in Ye Olde Lexington Center. Get yourself a delicious cup of coffee at Ride Studio Cafe. Then, go to The Elephant's Trunk bookstore which just opened last month. The staff is smart and delightfully chatty (like our own Helena's staffers), the book selection is edited down to perfection, and the space is neat and shop-able. The best section? A small collection of the owner and staff's favorite adult reads. I picked up a copy of Just Kids by Patti Smith. Fantastic!
