Letters Bookshop is a cute little local gem and a great staple with two floors. It is a charming, welcoming haven with a warm atmosphere. The store offers a huge and excellent curated selection of books overall, including a great graphic novel section and a loved kids section. It features popular books, staff picks with blurbs, and unique items like candles. The staff are very friendly, helpful, and show genuine kindness and passion. It is a great place to wander, explore, and buy new and used books, making it a must visit.
Great little bookstore. Nice displays and really appreciated the very thoughtful employee recommendations section.

Cute local bookstore with new and used books. Also a great place to look for gifts! They have games, puzzles, journals, stickers and totes. Make sure to visit the room upstairs too!

I had my book launch event at Letters Bookshop with Carter Sickels, and it is one of my favorite bookstores. The booksellers are all so kind and knowledgable, and it's located in a lovely area of downtown Durham. Check them out!
