“Browsers is my favorite bookstore. It is my happy place and I love to just wander through even if I am not intending on buying a book. I have since moved away, but still follow the shop on Instagram (they do a great job with social media!) and follow the owner’s newsletters (if you aren’t signed up, you should be!). Every year my family buys me gift cards to browser’s so I can order and have the booksellers ship to me. Every aspect is done with such care and love!”

121 5th Ave SE, Olympia“this store is really cute, but everything is marked up super high and is unfortunately cheaper online. good place to get ideas of what the item looks like in person”
“You just can’t beat the price! We brought our nephew to pick out books and they were all mostly under $2.00! Where else can you get something of great value for that price.”
“Beautiful space and such a wonderful sanctuary to find quiet refuge from the day to day busyness of life. Enjoy coming here to read, study, or have reflective moments of spiritual inquiry and insight. The attendees are always happy and helpful.”
“Quick to get to off of the highway. Clean parking lot. The outer facade of the building looks dated. We were nervous it would be a small store from the parking lot. Once we opened the door we were transported into a booktopia! The store is vibrant and well laid out! Plenty of places to sit and read the book covers. There is a Starbucks inside with plenty of seating. They have a large selection of paper as well- planners, journals and more! They have a beautiful selection of bookmarks & giftables.”
“Great place for intellectuals, seekers of truth or a thirst for knowledge, societal outcasts, socialist, anarchists, subversives, people looking to ? the ='s, book junkies, hippies, alternative lifestylers, and just anybody wanting to find great books in a great atmosphere & meet some great down to earth people while feeling like your really someplace rare and beautiful..”

Didn't have the game, offered to take my name and # and keep an eye out for it. Then, offered to let the owner know what I was looking for! Hopefully they will be able to find it! I appreciate the help and effort from Nicole in any case!! TY”
“This location has basically anything bead related you might need for jewelry crafting. It is highly organized.
There are no Perler or Plastic Fusible beads, this place specializes in glass beads for looming and similar crafts associated with Native American art.”
