Cleveland’s neighborhoods are full of adventure, especially if you dare to dream big. There’s so much to discover here – art, culture, and community all interact to create Cleveland’s unique story. Clevelanders are delighted by our city’s story, but bookworms are even more excited by the area’s best independent bookstores. If you’re in search of independent bookstores in Cleveland, your wallet will fall in love with this West Side destination.
Back in 2009, a unique bookstore opened mere steps away from the West Side Market.
Ohio City has much to offer, but bookworms are absolutely enchanted by Horizontal Books. Horizontal started as an online store, but they’ve since delighted readers with their neighborhood book store.
Horizontal Books has a totally unique approach to offering affordable books.
While most independent bookstores offer used books to keep prices low, Horizontal Books sells overstock titles. The sweet smell of unread pages will tantalize readers, and crisp, brilliant covers hint at incredible stories hiding in plain sight.

The prices here will make your jaw drop to the floor… and your wallet just might jump for joy!
Due to the ever-evolving nature of overstock goods, you truly never know what you’ll find here. If you come in with an open mind and an upbeat attitude, you’ll surely find a literary gem awaiting you.
Horizontal Books is open Monday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., so there’s ample opportunity to plan a visit!
As this neighborhood is high-traffic, it’s never a bad idea to ride the Rapid into town. The Ohio City Rapid Station is just around the corner, so be sure to plan your trip accordingly!
And, of course, you can always swing by the West Side Market following your literary indulgence.
After you travel around the world (and possibly through space and time) by thumbing through the pages of fantastic books, you can take your taste buds on an international tour at the West Side Market.
Address: 1979 W 25th Street, Cleveland, OH, 44113
Cleveland bookworms are in for a treat at this independent bookstore with deep discounts.
There’s nothing that quite compares to the smell of crisp book pages. What’s the best book you’ve ever picked up on a whim? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
