Okay LOVE! How did it take me so long to come to this cutie place?! I ordered a couple books online and got a text when they were ready for pick up. Pickup was super quick and easy. The store itself is adorable, and has so many things that your little romance book heart could desire. They have a monthly calendar of events that happen at the store, and I can't wait to attend some of them. So happy to see such a wonderful place doing so well in this area! read more

Such a cool bookstore! I've never been to a romance centered bookstore before and it's my favorite genre so it was a match made in heaven to visit here! My first trip to the store was also the day that they had the fantastic author duo, Christina Lauren, signing books! They have such a huge variety of romance books that you can wander through the store and touch and read! In addition to books they also offer reading supplies and goodies such as stickers, totes, bookmarks, merch, and more! The employees are also very knowledgeable and helpful too! The day that I went they had a deal where based off of how much you spent they provided you with additional gifts such as a free ARC copy and a tote bag too! I'm definitely going to return to my new bookstore of choice and support this fantastic, small local business! read more

This is a cute romance bookstore that was located near my airbnb when i visited Utah. I LOVED all the cute decor and items you can buy that are bookish. They support a lot of local businesses and artists bookmarks, kindle sleeves, clothing and so much more. They have so many books from different genres and it looks like they decorate by seasons. Service was great! They also have a small room in the back of the store with more clothes, a couple chairs to sit in and other cute bookish items to buy. read more

Such a cute girrrrrrly girl type of book store. Tiny store, but such heartfelt vibes and packs a punch in the romance realm. If you need a gift for your book loving peeps, this is a great place. I absolutely love how their lovebound library t-shirt has the brick store on it. I hope that's the logo cause it's simply so cute and would purchase more merchandise with it. They have bookmarks, key chains, mugs, totes, candles, fragrance, stickers, t-shirts, sweatshirts, and of course... romance BOOKS! I can't get enough of their stamped store bags. All in all, great location within the Maven district on 900 south. Literal definition of a book lovers souvenir gift shop. I promise if you purchase something there it will give you that simple bliss feeling. read more

I'd never before heard of a bookstore that only carries on genre-such a unique idea! Lovebound Library only carries romance books-along with some fun accessories (bookmarks, candles, etc) to go along with the theme. It makes me wonder, are there other bookstores out there that specialize in just horror, mystery, fantasy? What a cool concept. This shop is pocket-sized...really, it's tiny. I love all things miniature, so it speaks to me. But it also attracts lots of people, so it gets a bit crowded inside. I popped in, shuffled around with other shoppers for a few minutes, and then made my way for the door pretty quickly on Independent Bookstore Day. Duh. Of course it will be packed on that day. I'll come back on a Wednesday at 2:00. Maybe it will be a little less busy then. I'm so glad to see this shop is getting some love. They seem to be a great place and I'm excited to return. read more

Visiting Salt Lake City on a work trip and stumbled upon this gem on Instagram. I could not wait to go so I grabbed the girls and away we went. It was a unique book shop with adorable bookish trinkets, a great selection of all things romance, apparel and more. Walked out with two books from my TBR list (that my local Barnes & Noble never stocks), the cutest kindle charm, a book pouch, a shelf sign and my favorite item - a bookmark holder! I can't wait to add these lovely touches to my home library. The staff was lovely and we were sure to join the loyalty program. Will be returning on my next trip in November! read more

Cute little romance-only bookstore that recently opened in SLC. This is a very small bookstore and the sections aren't very large. I was disappointed by how small the fantasy section was, considering romantasy is extremely popular these days. We went on a Saturday afternoon and the place was packed! I'm happy for the owner, who was there working, but it took away from the experience for me; I wasn't able to peruse the shelves like I wanted to. I felt pushed along by other impatient customers. Maybe it's less busy during the week? I did purchase a sticker and two books that I'm excited to read! The prices are typical of any new bookstore - those three items cost me $42. read more

I absolutely love a good locally-owned bookstore. This one is charming, but in a bright and…read morecheerful kind of way rather than a mysterious, old shop kind of way. Literally, the walls inside are painted bright colors, so you just can't help but be in a good mood when you step inside. It may not be the largest book store, but they carry a decent amount of books and accessories, plus they have a little LEGO table for the kiddos to play at while you shop. Those fun little tables in the center of the room-that's what I usually gravitate toward. I think many of the items are meant to be gifts, but who says you can't give yourself a gift now and then? Be sure to appreciate the greeting cards and stickers-there are some gems in there! When we visited, there was a pop-up shop for a bookmark making bar-Taylor Made. It was such a cute idea to make a custom bookmark while you're visiting a neat book store. Such a vibe.

Tucked away in the mountains of Salt Lake City, Utah is a bookstore worth traveling for. The…read moreLegendarium is a bookstore and cafe in a cozy little house. While we came on our travel day, I could easily picture us spending an afternoon here with a cup of tea and a new book. The selection is divine, and is fantasy-heavy. Lots of tabletop game supplies and various nerdy merchandise as well. As a queer person traveling to Salt Lake, it was nice to be in a place where I knew we were among friends. Side note - apparently there's a downstairs??? I guess I have to get back on a plane and see it myself.

I love visiting with Richard and I know others do too because there is always a steady stream of loyal customers when I'm there. I also love the bookclub shelf right at the front that has a great collection of reads. It's rare that I buy a book from any other section because it has so many great picks right as you walk in!

The owner was so kind and helpful! I much prefer the this local bookstore over a big chain!read more

There were only 10 Batman comics total, with just two different issues priced at .50. Everything else was $4.95 and up.

Folklore is one of the cutest bookstores I have ever been to - a warm, cozy, inviting space that I could spend hours browsing in. Wide selection of books spread throughout the store with a lovely children's area containing a desk & chairs to sit and read at, which my daughters thoroughly enjoyed. They even have a "bargain books" section containing more affordable selections. Loved every minute of my time here! A gem worth checking out in the area.

Nearby is Folklore Bookshop, and I hope they are benefitting from the crowds because my visit left a lasting impression that I still recall fondly. Yes, there's an amazing selection of books and cute gifts. Yes, it's quaint and cozy. There's a dog (or there was that day). Also a roaring fireplace and an area to gather or read or both - but that's just a short list of what makes this place special. As you are browsing the shelves, you'll see notecards handwritten by staff with an overview of a book they've read and enjoyed shared in the most relatable way. Their passion for reading really comes through here and that is everything!!! Props to Quinn for including a spooky meter where applicable. Everyone I interacted with was so friendly and helpful, and you can just feel that they loved being there as much as I did. Plus - free bookmark with purchase! Oh, of course there's a Taylor Swift section - seems a prerequisite for a store called Folklore. Happy reading! Bitsy

It's perfect for spreading a little love and giving someone those warm fuzzies. I was greeted by EMMA! She is a rose in a field of daisies. Engaging, fun, and customer service oriented. I'm not shopping for anything today, but I've added this store to my favorites for a return visit. It's a hot day, and I was thirsty--thankfully, they have a small fridge stocked with a variety of cold drinks. What stood out to me: no plastic bottles, only glass and aluminum! I scanned several options using the Yuka app and most beverages typically score between 0 and 7, labeled "Poor." But the drinks I purchased and scanned at home rated a perfect 100/100 -- "Excellent." VeryImpressive!
