Great place to browse, read some, and chill, before exploring the rest of this hip happening area of Louisville. The Staff members are full of warm energy and are emblematic of building a better world.

Wonderful staff! Unpretentious, kind, and attentive; a jovial atmosphere. A Great selection for any bookstore. A must-stop for the family any time we're in the neighborhood.
The Rosewater Bookstore is a volunteer-powered social enterprise managed by South Louisville Community Ministries. In addition to thousands of used and rare books, we offer pottery handmade by a local artist, plants, pillows and other fabric goods, and various ornaments and trinkets. Here’s the cherry-on-top: Since all of The Rosewater’s books are donated and the shop is staffed by volunteers, every penny made from sales goes directly back into programs supporting our community.
