King's English


You are cleaning out some old boxes and you come across one of your favorite books. You open it and begin reading, the words bring back images of your favorite character and the smell of the paper and ink reminds you of the beach, the soft bed, the warm sun while you were reading it. The smell of books both old and new is one of my favorite things about The King’s English bookstore. This locally owned store holds so many adventures and stories just waiting behind its door. They have a wonderful children’s section that begs even adults to pick up Where the Wild Things Are and reunite with childhood memories.

Not only is the selection and atmosphere of the cozy store great, but the staff is very knowledgeable and helpful when you can’t even begin to narrow your choices down. And the best part of shopping here is you’re supporting a local business. If you can’t wait to start reading, grab a bite at Mazza, another local eatery serving incredible Middle Eastern cuisine and take sometime living an adventure through the pages of a great book.

King’s English- 1511 South 1500 East, open Monday to Saturday from 10 am to 9 pm and from 10 am to 4 pm on Sundays.
