Story

Kingston's Independent Bookstore. Fiction and non-fiction since 1988.

We sell fiction & non-fiction books, including hard-to-find titles by local authors. Additionally, we offer calendars, agendas & day planners, greeting cards & postcards, journals, maps, magazines & literary periodicals.

Want to know if we have a book in stock? Call us, send us an email, or visit our website where you can use our online inquiry form. If we have a copy we’ll contact you and hold it aside for you for up to a week. Of course, you can always drop by the store and browse our shelves!

We are also happy to special-order titles that we do not currently have on hand in the store. There is no extra charge for special orders, and you generally do NOT need to pre-pay.

Special orders will generally arrive within 5-7 business days, often sooner, but occasionally a bit longer. We’ll call or email you when your book has arrived, and hold it at the store for you to pick up.

You can make inventory inquiries and place special orders directly through our website:
