Little Shop of Stories


Decatur is one of the cutest towns in Georgia. It has unique shops, friendly people, and is home to Little Shop of Stories. Oh, how I want to visit this charming and friendly bookshop every single week. The bookshop's staff, ambience, and top-notch collection brought the biggest smile to my face. I wanted to create an enormous book stack and hide in a corner for a week. Thank you, Laurel Snyder, Eric Wight, and Jarrett J. Krosoczka, for introducing me to one of America's best independent bookshops. I hope to return one day for the Decatur Book Festival.

    What a great shop! That restroom wall from I'M THE BIGGEST THING IN THE OCEAN is awesome.
    So envious of your trip!

    I'm so sad I missed you. This is my favorite Indie bookstore. I adore all of the staff, special events and obviously the setting and fabulous vibe it gives off. I'm so glad you had a great time!
