Today, Katie writes, edits, and performs several other tasks for OnlyInYourState and has never been more passionate about a job before. Outside of work, you can likely find her curled up on with a hot cup of coffee, practicing yoga, baking, or exploring the beautiful Lone Star State (in particular, the vast and mystical West Texas desert).
Bookworms, this one is for you! Hiding in downtown Prescott, Peregrine Book Company is filled to the brim with affordable novels, comic books, magazines, and every other type of literary work imaginable. See for yourself:
In the seven short years since opening, Peregrine Book Company has become Prescott's largest independent bookstore. It’s packed wall-to-wall with new and used books of every genre and is a perfect place for bibliophiles to get their fix.
Upon entering the massive warehouse, your eyes won't quite know where to look first. The books are all organized into very specific categories so customers can find what they're looking for with ease, but your first glance at the sheer volume of books is enough to stop you in your tracks.
Prices are very reasonable, and there's usually some sort of monthly deal going on. Everything is in impeccable condition - even the pre-owned novels - so you'll feel as if your copy is hot off the press.
Before the days of action movies, we got our superheroes from these bad boys. Peruse the impressive comic book selection and take home some of your favorite classics or discover a new story or two. They have changed quite a bit since the golden era of comic books!
Aspiring writers will definitely want to stop by the calligraphy desk. Something about quills and ink wells just make words flow onto paper so much more smoothly.
Kids have their very own area with elaborate, whimsical decor - like that of a fairytale. A talented storyteller brings the magic of all their favorite fictional worlds to life every Saturday at 11 a.m.
There are plenty of events for adults as well, in addition to several different book clubs. Local and national authors visit regularly to speak and hold book signings.
You'll find Peregrine Book Company at 219A North Cortez, Prescott, AZ 86301. It’s open Monday through Thursday from 10 a.m. to 7 pm., Friday & Saturday from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Sunday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
