Scenes from our first ever Indie Bookstore Day! We had the best time celebrating with some of our favorite customers and can’t wait to continue to grow our Saturday Story-times.
Can you find the difference between these two images? Come see us today at 304 Main for Indie Bookstore Day AND our six-month store anniversary! We can’t wait to see you at 304 Main from 9-5.
Here’s a couple of gorgeous vintage classics under our book arch! We’ll be open at 304 Main from 1-5 this afternoon!
We look forward to seeing you soon at 304 Main! We'll be back to weekend hours in the New Year, but until then we have additional weekday hours for everyone who wants to ring in the New Year with a good book.
Our bookish checkout desk and lobby book arch are now in action! Special thanks to @cjobolin and her husband Matthew for building them for us.

Thank you to Constance Alexander for this lovely description of one of our first weekends as a store! We loved her visit with us last weekend. nkytribune.com/2022/11/const…
We'll be open this weekend for our normal hours - Saturday from 10 to 5, Sunday from 1 to 5. Stop by and see us at 304 Main! We've been adding hundreds of books to our inventory this week and have some other surprises in store as well.
Our store website is now live! bolinbooks.com has links to store info, future events, haiku-format staff book recs and more! Just in case you hypothetically need an alternate place to follow our journey than, say, here.
The Bolin Books entrance is coming right along! My grandfather Marlin Seaton built these shelves for us 25 years ago in Arkansas and they’ve traveled with us now to two states, three houses, and one bookstore. Our classics and Kentucky sections now have a home.
Here's our new logo courtesy of @whitjobo! It's great to have a designer in-house. The design is inspired by the sign from my grandfather's drug store in Dixon, Kentucky.
Check out some of our vintage sci-fi/fantasy pulp paperback collection!

Here's a work-in-progress photo of our non-fiction room. Picked up the rug at a thrift store earlier this week! More shelving and lighting to come.
We’re so excited to share Bolin Books with you! Coming soon to Downtown @MurrayKentucky.
