Walking into Blue Willow Bookshop is a book lover's dream. Wooden bookshelves line the walls from floor to ceiling in this cozy Houston bookstore, and you're likely to encounter the friendly, knowledgeable owner behind the counter. Wooden plank flooring and low tables displaying kids' books and crafts make you feel like you're in a well-stocked home library, though regulars emphasize that despite the store's intimate feel, the stock is surprisingly large, and you can often find whatever book you're looking for. If not, don't worry, because the staff is happy to order anything you need.
Visiting Blue Willow on a lazy Saturday afternoon when you have time to leisurely browse the shelves is always fun, though you should also consider visiting during one of the bookstore's signature events—perhaps a book signing, author reading, or kids' story time hour.
