Fate’s been kind: I’ll be in Houston, a surprisingly bookish city, on Saturday for Independent Bookstore Day.
My schedule will be tight, but here’s the bookstores I’m planning on hitting if I can:
- Kaboom
- Brazos
- Blue Willow
- Becker’s
- Books Abound
- Copperfield’s
- Jem
- Forgotten Lore
- Kindred Stories
- Quarter Price Books
Which stores am I missing?

Half Price Books
Blue Willow is solid choice, their sci-fi section always has some gems I never heard of before. If you’re doing that many stops maybe skip Quarter Price since it’s more chain-like and focus the time in places like Forgotten Lore – that one has really unique finds you won’t see elsewhere
Here’s a [map](https://www.indiebound.org/independent-bookstore-day/map) where you can find bookstores officially participating in Independent Bookstore Day. But any indie bookstore would be worth visiting and supporting.
