Such a haven for book lovers! Caleb & I had a cheery conversation and I look forward to the upcoming Slamming Bricks (Poetry Slam)event at the Avalon September 9th. As always, I came away knowing more about the offerings of this gem of a bookstore.

Wonderful bookshop, always excited to go out to Fruita if only to visit this shop. Has a selection of avant-garde and classics you aren't likely to find anywhere else in the county.

The best overall book store in the grand valley! Fantastic selection of new books with some used books sprinkled in too. Great space that incites a calm feeling void of clutter

A while ago I thought that Copeka coffee was the hippest place in Junction. I was wrong. THIS is the hippest place in Junction. I've been to a few bookstores in my day, perused a dusty shelf or two, dug through stacks of old manuscripts in rapturous awe.... I've been to bookstores in bookstore- loving cities like Boulder and Seattle, where bookstores are the keepers of culture and shoppers hope to earn a nod of acknowledgement with their carefully selected purchase. There's sometimes live music, sometimes a book signing, but always thoughtfully arranged book tables, piled with books of a particular theme and cozy places to sit and acquaint yourself with them..... WELL Lithic boasts ALL of this as well as a location in a historic building complete with a wacky elevator, tall windows, installation artwork throughout and it's absolutely spotless. I had to go back to make sure it wasn't a dream. .... it was still there, as glorious as ever. A sparkling oasis of books and poetry in the middle of the desert, run by a prophet. A world class bookstore, here, HERE of all places. Wonders never cease.

I did not make a purchase at Lithic Bookstore. Can you tell me what was purchased and what price?

My favorite bookstore. I love the selection of books from small publishers. The ambiance of the place is just wonderful. I'd hang out there all day.

I love Lithic so much! I always find an amazing book that tickles my interests. They are always happy to chat with you and make interesting recommendations. The store is tucked away in a back corner on the second floor. I might also mention that Lithic publishes books of poetry.

Stopped in while visiting Fruita and had an awesome experience! Great selection that is carefully curated. Loved the section dedicated to mountain-west literature. Staff member we spoke to knew a ton about books and was very helpful. We went in just looking to browse but everybody in our group left with an unexpected gem. Don't be deterred by the fact that this place is a little hard to find (second floor in a shared space) it is well worth the visit for any book lover!

The cutest bookstore I've ever seen. Makes me want to decorate my house similarly. It's so homey inside and the people that run it are all so chill and very interesting! I love their poetry nights there

Lithic is an amazing bookstore! I was in the area for a week and ended up shopping here twice. They have a wide variety of books including many local authors and works published by Lithic. The staff was amazingly helpful and friendly.

This place is exactly the kind of hidden treasure a book, art, culture, or comunity enthusiast delights in finding. A real treat.
