A small shop with a long memory. New releases up front, secondhand treasures in the back, and a staff who will not stop until they have found your next read.
Slide a book off the shelf to read about it.
A quiet, generous novel about a garden, a grief, and the neighbors who show up anyway. The kind of book you press into a friend's hands.
We opened Marginalia because the best bookstore is the one that remembers what you read last. Every title on the shelf is here because someone who works here loved it, argued for it, and wanted you to find it. Pull up a chair, ask a hard question, and let us surprise you.
The same books that are on the shelf above, laid out to read at your own pace. Every one comes with the name of the bookseller who will not shut up about it.
The shop after hours is the best part of the shop. Everything here is free unless we say otherwise, and everyone is welcome.
Buy through our Bookshop.org storefront and a share of every sale comes back to the shop. Or message us and we will hold it at the counter.
Look for the striped awning and the cart of dollar paperbacks on the sidewalk. Street parking on 7th, more behind the building off the alley.
