Next Chapter Booksellers

My friend and I went to this adorable and beautiful shop for an author event. The booksellers were welcoming and helpful. The other shoppers were friendly. The book selection was varied, well-organized, and beautifully presented. I will ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND that you go visit this wonderful place.

Clean, dreamy bookstore. Pricey end but its worth a visit! I love their manga selection. Great book selection. The staff are helpful.

Terrific independent bookstore with a thoughtful selection of titles, and helpful staff. I used to live a block from Storied Owl at Randolph and Cleveland during its few years of existence, and was heartbroken when they closed. Next Chapter readily fills the void, and then some. I keep finding so many interesting treasures, that my 'to-read' book tree is groaning underneath their weight as I work my way through them.

Welcoming, comfortable, fabulous selection including books by local authors. One of my favorite things is the way staff picks are presented. Such a variety and the insights are thoughtful and offer enough depth to have an accurate feel for a book. I read a bunch and one stood out as highlighting a pace and aesthetic I prefer, so started reading and immediately connected. It's fantastic when a bookstore is really about introducing guests to stories! Had a great conversation during checkout. Thank you, Next Chapter, I'll be back.

A very inclusive and welcoming bookstore just across the street from Macalester. They have a well curated selection of books to peruse. According to their website they host a few book clubs, including a manga bookclub for all the Twin City otakus out there. Apparently (I cannot confirm as I did not actually bear witness) there is a cat named Honya that dozes in various places throughout the store as well.

They don’t take cash for purchases. Just another business that’s fine with card charges fees.will not come here again

I really like this bookstore. Great selection, fabulous recommendations, and if they don't have it, they can order it. Supporting independent book stores feels great!
