Nowhere Bookshop | San Antonio, TX (Bookstore)

Field trip day with @Soubhiville down to San Antone to visit Jenny Lawson‘s lovely bookshop. I really loved this shop - it‘s small but it‘s got a great selection of books that felt tailored to me (so dangerous!) - and all of the staff were so friendly and helpful. Would def visit again (tho my bank account needs to recover a little bit first) 😂📚💜
Good friends and good books make for a great day! #bookstoretourism

Ruthiella I thought that cat looked familiar! That‘s so cool you were able to meet up in person. (edited) 3y

Hollie I would love to visit there someday! 3y

Texreader @Soubhiville I am so sorry I didn‘t get to join you!! I was right here at home a mile away. Alas… 3y

Just found this list & now I am dying to add to my #bookstoretourism I‘ve only been to 4 on this list as far as I can tell. How about you? (Link in comments). Mine:
Full Circle Bookstore-Oklahoma (of course)
Powell‘s Books-Oregon
Lemuria-Mississippi
Sundog Books-Florida

Is this list accurate? I feel it is for my state! What are some of your faves? I wish I could visit them all and get more #bookishmerchyoulove #julyinbooks18 #bookstore #travel

My Bookstore: Writers Celebrate Their Favorite Places to Browse, Read, and Shop | Ronald Rice

My sister and I are in New Orleans for a long weekend... and this charming indie bookstore is one of the first I talked her into visiting with me. I limited myself to one book (the one tagged) 😄📚💜 #bookstoretourism #nola

ferskner That sign is so elegant! 7y

emilyhaldi So cute! I‘m going to New Orleans next weekend 👏🏻 hope I have some time for book shopping 🤞🏻 7y

Smangela I always allow myself 1 book as a souvenir! Have fun! 7y

Comic Book People: Photographs from the 1970s and 1980s | Jackie Estrada

Checking out a new (to me) local comic book store. I know one of the people who works here so I know I'll get some good recs... just hope my wallet doesn't hurt too badly afterwards. 😆

Alligators All Around | Maurice Sendak

These pictures are from a recent visit to one of my local bookstores, Main Street Books! They have a fair selection, but I like their children's section best. They always have some lesser known classics in that area, as well as some newer books and activity kits. #getindie #bookstoretourism #independentseveryday

Bookpeople: A Multicultural Album | Sharron L. McElmeel

BookPeople (not pictured) may be the #indiebookstore I go to the most frequently, but my city is host to quite a few great indie bookstores! I visited almost all of them last August when I was doing a bit of hometown #bookstoretourism - good times! 😃 #aprilbookshowers

StellarDoc Are you doing the Austin Book Crawl today? 7y

Eyelit @StellarDoc I just found out about it yesterday - so it's not in the cards this year (but I'm so going to plan for it next year!). Are you in town and participating? 7y

StellarDoc @Eyelit Not this year. I'm participating in a panel at the Dallas Book Festival. I hope to do the Bookstore Crawl next Hesse 7y

StellarDoc (Whoops!) next year, though. 7y

Eyelit @StellarDoc good luck with the panel! If you want a litsy partner in crime for next year's book crawl let me know 😄 7y

StellarDoc @Eyelit I absolutely will! 7y

Zelma Ooh, a friend recently asked me to do a "nerdy girls trip". We were going to hit up a book festival, but store hopping in Austin might be just as good. ? 7y

Eyelit @Zelma indeed! It would be super fun 😃 7y

Book haul from The Writer's Block Book Shop on Fremont St. in Las Vegas. The shop is nicely curated and they have a bunny! I would definitely recommend stopping by if you happen to be in the area 🙌📚😊 #bookstoretourism

Giant John | Arnold Lobel

After lots of searching since my move, I think I found my new book home! My son and I stumbled on The Book House by accident today and were both instantly in love. They have a great children's room, shelves upon shelves of classics and rare books, so much coziness and atmosphere...not to mention how friendly and helpful everyone was! If you're ever near St. Louis, stop in Maplewood and check it out! #bookstoretourism

jessicarenee It looks so fun! 7y

readinginthedark @jessicarenee It is! I know where I'll be spending a lot of my free time in the future... 7y

Eastbriar How fun!! I'll need to check it out next time I go to St. Louis! 7y

readinginthedark @Eastbriar Absolutely! And maybe I'll see you there! 7y

wonga i'm going to @TatteredCoverBookStore next week! 7y

charl08 Brilliant idea. 7y

Ruri_kaichou I've never been to that one. The closest one to me is south of that one. I should take a field trip 7y

Mc_cart_ny Love Tattered Cover, I grew up going there! 7y

GlitteryOtters A question for you...have you been to the excellent vegan grocery stores Denver, Nooch? If not, you should definitely check them out sometime when you are in town. My husband has visited almost every vegan grocery store in the US (his dream is to open his own someday) & he swears Nooch is the best one. 7y

Eyelit Thanks @GlitteryOtters - I'll try to get there while I'm here if I have the time! Has your husband been to Rabbit Food Grocery? That's in my hometown 😃 7y

Eyelit @wonga enjoy! 📚😃💚 7y

GlitteryOtters That is one of the few he has NOT been to yet (Texas is a bit hard for us to get to!), but I am a longtime supporter of them, I was one of their kickstarter backers that helped them get the store opened! 7y
