Brazos Bookstore is nationally renowned for its author events and locally cherished for its careful, intelligent book selection.
This unassuming bookstore is one of the major building blocks of Houston's literary scene, hosting regular readings and book signing events with important authors. Also look for readings by up-and-coming authors from the University of Houston's creative writing program. You can say you knew them back in the day when they're receiving the National Book Award in 2030. The book selection is "thoughtful," which is to say don't go in looking for a specific book because half of the time you won't find it; that's what Barnes & Noble is for. Rather, Brazos Bookstore is a book-browser's paradise. Just start looking around and you'll find a book that interests you. It has a most impressive collection of literary journals and carries issues of McSweeney's and other lit-dork delights.
Presents readings by local and national writers.
