We visited Book Tree half an hour before it closed on a Saturday, so when we walked in, there was a small group of people sitting around in a small group. The owner warmly greeted us and mentioned that they had a visiting author here, but if we had any questions or needed help, to let him know. A book shop that has author readings and lectures? LOVE THIS ALREADY. Book Tree is located on Market Street, up the hill from downtown Kirkland. There was even designated street parking just for this store. The space isn't the largest, so they're not going to have everything here. But there are so many treasures to be found! They have a first edition of many books that are affordably priced. Most of the books are used here, which I prefer. But if you're looking for a new book, they have a few of that. You mostly come here, scanning through the shelves, bending down and looking through all sections because some of the books will be misplaced and it's a little untidy. But honestly, I love book stores like this because the hunt for a good book makes it al the more appealing! And you never know what you'll find. I was able to find a book that's not as common and easily found at other stores of one my favorite authors. Score! Book Tree is a must visit for any book worm in Kirkland and beyond! The owner is super friendly and welcoming of dogs and the store has a good selection of books to browse through and take home! I'm so happy to have found this charming book store in Kirkland.

What's especially fun is that there are a lot of locally-themed toys and board books. They're definitely more expensive than you can find at a big chain, but a lot are really unique! Multiple puzzles that I had wanted but were sold out on Amazon were available in the store! The staff was super friendly and helpful with any questions.

They have tons of cool events posted on flyers and chalkboards that are worth checking out. I really liked their selection and it's organized really well. I took a couple pictures of books I want to come back for. I just wish the space was a little cozier, though that's not much of something they can help. Personally, I would have a hard time reading underneath the rectangular LED ceiling lights.

Updating my review since it's been a couple of years. This is a Mormon/LDS bookstore that has much…read moremore than just books. Deseret Book is owned by the LDS Church. Prices are reasonable. They have a book club like Barnes & Noble that you have to pay $25 to join with a yearly renewal. It's worth the cost if you are a frequent buyer but not if you rarely come in. You get 6 free digital downloads and some free items with membership, among discounts and other things they toss in. The temple clothing store is now part of Deseret Book. It's located in the back of the store. All of the clothes for the temple along with kids clothes for baptisms and blessings are sold here. They now let you try things on before you buy. This chain sells a lot of things besides books. They also sell the following as long as it's Christian or spiritually based: office supplies, art (prints, framed oils, sculptures), home decor, crafts, board games, DVDs, CDs, jewelry, sheet music, church classroom materials, scrapbooking supplies, and more. They sell some candies, snacks and beverages. They sell fry sauce for those from Utah who like it and can't figure out how to squeeze mayo and ketchup into a bowl and mix it together. ;) If you come in on a weekday, the staff is few so expect to wait for a bit for service.

EBB is have to visit if you are Seattle. Skip the bubblegum wall and the original Starbucks. If you truly want to see Seattle, visit Elliott Bay Book and you will thank me later. I wish I had more time to visit every section and shelf. I wandered aimelessly at first then found myself in Queer True Crime. I ended up having a fantastic conversation with a lovely human at the information desk. I don't remember their name but they even spoke with my daughter on my iPhone as I was looking for a particular book for my wife. I was also on the hunt for Etna, a novel but it was sold out. I ended up purchasing per a staff recommendation, 'Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris' by Georges Perec Reading the first couple of pages instantly transported back to Paris, a place I know extemely well, and I saw every bus, man, woman, child, server worker, and heard every klaxon and shouted obscenity. Do yourself a favor and search out Elliot Bay Book when you visit Seattle, you'll be supporting a local business and feeding your mind and soul.
