The best place ever. The owners are amazing and so friendly. They’ve helped me find everything I’ve ever looked for. This bookstore has been a staple since I moved to Nashville almost 4 years ago.
I went out of my way to go to this bookstore when I was visiting Nashville and I’m so glad I did. This queer owned bookstore is colorful, whimsical, and cozy. I bought a book that’s been on my list and I can’t wait to read it! Just shows that atmosphere creates such a difference, and the murals and use of color really makes this place stand out. Thank you for such a great experience! 💙💜🩷
Very nice visit. Small bookstore with fun murals on the walls. The staff was very nice. Thank you for signing my journal!
10 out of 10! This is an adorable tiny haven of basically everything I want to read. Love the monthly theme and staff pick synopsis. I asked for a recommendation and quickly received a lovely one. Coffee and snacks next door and seating out front. If I lived in Nashville, these folks would tire of my face quite quickly.
Pros: I was greeted immediately when I came in, the store owner was super kind, there’s a pretty decent selection of books (considering the size of the store), and bookshelves are clearly labeled. The store is very clean and the prices are average. Overall score: A+

A whimsical, queer-owned haven for book lovers in Nashville, where every story finds a home.
