Independent Bookstore Day spots to hit up in Chicago:

- Women and Children First (radical, great poetry section)

- Myopic Books (huge, great poetry section)

- Armadillo’s Pillow (best smelling bookstore)

- City Lit Books (by a blind date book!)

- Lilliput Books (another woman-owned spot!)

Choosing local when buying books is more than just where you shop:

You’re protecting creativity.
You’re defending the freedom to read.
You’re uplifting diverse voices.
You’re investing in neighbors.

Today, and every day, we celebrate and support indie bookstores.

Happy Independent Bookstore Day!
