My favorite used bookstore in Austin! The selection is diverse and carefully curated and the owner is wonderful. An absolute gem for the Hyde Park area! Stop by to find your next read or to join a book club.

Black Pearl Books has an amazing curated selection of books by BIPOC authors. I was particularly impressed by their non-fiction section!

BookWoman has a lovely selection of books by female and non-binary authors, as well as many fun trinkets and book-related items. I found a number of books here that I’ve never seen in other bookstores.

First Light is a cafe-bookshop located in the heart of Hyde Park. This shop has become a staple of the community since moving into the renovated post office building. Stop by for a delicious coffee and your next read!

By far the largest indie bookstore I’ve ever been to, BookPeople has a huge selection of books and hosts many free author events. My favorite part is the plethora of staff picks in case you get overwhelmed by all the options!
