“This was such a sweet find. Today is Independent Bookstore Day and we were in Austin and decided to check out Birdhouse Books. We absolutely loved our time there. My kids and I spent a considerable amount of time in the children’s section. I particularly appreciate the book categories they have, from graphic books to books about inclusivity. There is a limited selection of parenting books, which was surprising to me. I half expected a wider range of parenting books considering the selection of children’s books they had. And the parenting books were shelved right at the back of the store instead of being closer to the children’s section, which I thought was an odd choice. I also particularly appreciate that they have banned books here, and book recommendations.
When we went there today, it looks like there was an event going on and from their calendar in the store, it seems that they hosted events every now and then, which is great.
Staff are incredibly helpful and welcoming. We plan to come back again.
Parking was easy and when you have kids, that is an important factor to consider.
And tip: When you are done here, walk to the Japanese grocery store in the same block and get yourself some delicious snack.”
“I brought a signed copy of The first to die at the end, and I live all the way in Canada it came so fast, I am extremely happy with the presentation and safety transportation absolute 1000/10 business they left a little note too so sweet definitely recommend, small business are always the way thanks guys my brother is going to love it for Christmas!!!”
“I am grateful for this indie-bookstore. They have welcomed my books into their space to be introduced to new readers. The owner Thais and the employees are kind. Thank you Reverie.”
“Great locally owned book store. The snacks in the cafe are great, the employees are friendly, the selection is really good and they have a pretty extensive list of authors coming out to do talks. Very cool spot!”
“I love love love half price books. All locations here in the city of Austin are in great areas of other locations that are walking distance. They had such a huge selection of books and many of which are currently on sale!!! So if you like to read and are on a budget head on down. They also have selection of reusable bags and many other small trinkets.”
“First time buyer from Belzel books. I've got to say this was an awesome experience. had a Pinky Yun tattoo book if you know you know. Not only did it come fast it was extremely well packaged l. Came with a nice note on a tattoo note card and some other free swag which made my day. I will definitely be purchasing my future tattoo books here thank you Wendy!”
“They have a wonderful selection, though, with the sheer amount of series they have, there will always be some volumes out of stock or missing, since it is always extremely crowded. Sadly, this location, unlike others doesn't take cash”
“Recycled Reads is my favorite books store. You never know what you’ll find and the prices can’t be beat! 50 cents for all children’s and YA books, including hardcover. $2 for adult fiction hardcover. $.50 - $1 for all paperback adult fiction.”
“Wow the Giving Witch ? Sharon just gave me a new ducky on a rainy day when I really needed it. Just absorbed the joy in her space, imagined a kid for me and my wife to play with all the toys, and gave her a big hug. Thanks it’s Krazy how a small gift and a big heart can make the sun come out”
“Very nice place....
Resale on books and such is a thin margin but some how this company still provides free Healthcare for managers.
Store was super clean and well organized as well.

“Mariana and Kendall, thanks for all your efforts in finally getting this book to me! It means the world to me that there’s a REAL BOOKSTORE I can walk in to, talk to a REAL HUMAN and walk out with what I need even when it’s hard to find! Y’all nailed it and I’m grateful for the positivity you share with everyone who walks through the door.
I’m SO glad to finally have this in my hands!”
“Love, love, love this place!! I needed to find several copies of a book for my classroom and was able to find 4 for a very good price. Plus got some good deals on some dvds and book series I been looking for. I love that fact that I could look online to see if they had when I was looking for. The staff was very friendly. They had a large variety of books, dvds, games, videos games, music and even collectibles. You can bring in your old books and pick up something new for yourself. All the books were in good condition. It was a little bit of a drive to get to for me but well worth it.”

We’re grateful to have such a great bookstore nearby!”

“My daughter journey has been sick for 1 week we are admitted in dell children's in East Austin can someone contact me ? I have left messages . I need prayer for her please .”
“They had the best customer service. 40 some high school students crashed the quiet store and if it bothered them or stressed them out, you couldn't tell. They were great!”
“Fabulous poetry reading, smiling charcuterie and sparkling water and community. Beautiful diverse book selection for sale, Also, beaded jewelry and t-shirts, clothing items. A welcoming bookstore.”
“Went in a few months back on the prowl for some Beetroopers cards for my friend's deck. The guy at the register was super nice and helped us dig through the different bulk boxes it could be in. He even tried to open some of their packs to see if they could pull it since it was a common. Highly recommend them!”
“They sold out of the item I wanted, but the customer service was amazing!! They offered to order more and took my email to update me :) I would absolutely recommend coming here as the staff was very friendly and so willing to help!”
“It’s a pricier used bookshop and we didn’t end up buying anything, but it’s definitely at least worth a browse, and the rare copies are impressive. Plus, they were super nice.”
“Real books, lots of them! A great variety of magazines, too! I read ebooks regularly, but never want to give up the pleasure of an actual printed book to own and hold. Barnes and Noble has an excellent variety of books to choose from, a cafe to sit an drink coffee while you sample possible books to buy and helpful staff to find or order just what you need.”
“You can be in this place for hours upon hours , and get lost . I can’t believe they had this book ! I like this location , if they don’t have something they will try and get it for you , some books are too expensive. Like this War within a war book ?.”
“Stopped by the Co-op looking for some UT gear and got some top-notch help from Maya. She was super helpful in finding me the perfect water bottle. Love the selection and the customer service here. Hook 'em! ?”
“Hello, I placed an online order for a Master of Education Hood for a graduation robe that is needed for an upcoming graduation ceremony scheduled in about 2 weeks. Though I didn't request expedited service my order arrived in 1 day.--- Thank you very much, you are greatly appreciated.”
“As the best and biggest independent bookstore in Austin, it’s no surprise that they have a small location in the airport. This is right inside security and is very convenient. Besides books, they sell some snacks and drinks, T-shirts, small gifts, and cards. It’s a small sample of the books. They have in their main store, but they’re curated for titles that would be easy reading our plane.”
“More than a book store, it’s an experience!
Huge selection of children’s books. We loved the author reading for “These Are The Good Old Days” during their Littles Story Time last Wednesday. Check their website for future events.”
“Great place to sell books that are sitting around collecting dust. They won't pay a lot but it's better than nothing. ?
The Half Price Books near Parmer and Mopac is a nice store and the staff is friendly.”
“Cool space! I didn't stay for very long but I found a couple things that I liked including a calvin and hobbes comic and some poetry. It's pay by donation and I also grabbed a couple free stickers so I paid about $10.”

“Honestly the most thoughtfully-curated indie bookstore in Austin, which is saying a lot. I always leave with about 3X the books I initially went in for and the owners/staff are so welcoming!”
