People ask about the books almost as much as they ask about the cookies, so here’s the whole rundown in one place. It’s pretty simple, which is how we like it.
The short version
-
Find the truck
Check the map on the homepage to see where we're parked. The books come along to every stop.
-
Browse the shelves
Take your time! Pick up whatever looks good, flip through it, read the first page. That's what they're there for.
-
Pay at the window
Used books start at $2. Cash or card both work, and you can grab a cookie while you're at it.
What’s on the shelves
All kinds of stuff. Paperback mysteries, field guides, westerns, thin little poetry books, kids’ picture books, and sci-fi novels big enough to prop a door open. Every book has been somebody’s already, and we think that’s part of the fun. You never know who dog-eared page 112 or why.
Why the shelves keep changing
We only fit so many books on a truck, so the selection is different pretty much every time we park. If you see something you like, grab it! It might not be there next week.
Taped to the book shelf
if it looks good, grab it. it might not be here next week!
That’s really all there is to it. Come find us, bring a friend, and leave with something good to read.
