I was very impressed with the children's Halloween book selections here. And their displays were true visions that would make any child happy. I also like all the extras offered - like little ghost coin purses that look like the ones from the early 20s. You know what I'm talking about, little beaded coin purses with a little fringe Om the bottom. But with ghosts in them. lol! The people working there were happy, and that says a lot about a store to me. I asked a few questions and they were very knowledgeable and quickly answered my questions with confidence. It was a great experience and there were many people buying books early in the morning. It's a great way to start your day.

Deep Vellum Books is a gem. Let me tell you why…read more Deep Vellum Books is the storefront and headquarters of Deep Vellum Books & Publishing, a nonprofit literary arts organization and the largest publisher of literature in translation in the US (I did not know that!!!!). They stock their own titles as well as a curated selection of literary fiction, nonfiction, and poetry. I visited with my family (dad, stepmom, adult siblings, husband) last weekend, and we spent way more time in the store than we expected to given the store's size. It's not large, but the store is packed with interesting and unusual and harder to find titles. I started to read a book's dusk jacket flap blurb, which led to a conversation about the book with the staff in the shop. (I bought it, I already read it, I loved it.) It's that kind of store - I was walking around, reading blurbs out loud to my family - finding book after book that piqued my interest. I left with a book, my siblings with two or three each, and my dad with at least one. There were six of us, and we bought maybe 8 books. The staff working the day we were visited were incredible, chatting with us about books, telling us about Deep Vellum, and answering our questions about their events. It's clear that people who work at Deep Vellum love books and that always makes shopping at a bookstore more wonderful. (I'm not sure I would have taken home the book I did if I hadn't chatted with a store employee for a few minutes about it - it's a little out of my wheelhouse - but I loved and I'm so glad I picked it up). The store hosts book clubs which sound amazing. I mean how many bookstores offer a "Homer Out Loud" book club that meets to read Homer's epics out loud once a week!? Or has a book club called "Underdogs in Space" that meets once a month to talk about underread sci-fi books?! If you're in Deep Ellum and you love to read anything at all - make your way over to Deep Vellum. It's a great organization and a great bookstore. I couldn't love it more.

It's not a big store, but it's filled with energy. The right kind of energy. The kind that makes you want to look at everything they have to offer. It's the week before Halloween and they have the most adorable Halloween woven bags for trick or treaters - or to fill the bags up with wonderful Halloween books for decorating your shelves. And while I was there I bought a stuffed tigger - yes, from Winnie-the-Pooh. I am a sucker for this story series. When I could t find the book I walked into this shop for, the employee was more than willing to help me, and did so efficiently. This bookstore has a great reputation in Dallas and when you walk into the shop, you know why they're loved.
