Normal Books

I love how the staff at the independent bookstore called normal books is super friendly to people! I love that they are willing to talk to you and get to know you too!

I am such a huge fan of individually owned book shops and Normal Books meets expectations above and beyond if you ask me. It’s nice to not go to the large chains and while I’m a fan other the other smaller shops in Athens and understand prices have to be competitive to stay in business, sometimes that’s why I think a lot of people resort to buying books online but I hope Normal Books stays here for a long long time because it’s awesome to go in, find something great to read, a gift or just browse and not break the bank. Also, the staff is so great. Thank-you all for being so amazing!

This is the best bookstore in Athens. They have a great selection of books for anyone. American history is stacked with some excellent reads and their literature section is to die for. All their books are new and their prices are always much lower than MSRP. I don't think I've ever paid more than $10 for a book here. If you're a reader, this shop is a must see. If you're local, make sure you stop.in a couple times a month because the selection is always changing.
