Wanderlust Center

Wanderlust is exactly what people mean when they say shop local and support independent local bookstores. The staff is knowledgeable and welcoming and contributes positively to the community in a variety of ways. Online shopping through bookshop.org can support their shop too, and they can help shoppers access audiobooks too. As a local self-published author, I love that they support writers and creators like me too!

What a fabulous shop! Popped in to kill time before an appointment and it was like wandering into my own private library. 🥰 In addition to some of the best stocked fiction, non-fiction, and fantasy sections I’ve seen in some time (nearly everything in the shop is on my TBR!), I was delighted to see a table for Hispanic Heritage month, a social justice section, and some damn cool banned book reading trackers (fall project is a go!). As a dedicated library nerd, I rarely buy books these days but I just had to support this place. If you’re in need of a pick me up, do yourself a favor and stop in!

We had a very nice meet and greet event to meet community and the neighbors at bothell downtown. Staff were very kind & generous to organize this

Such a lovely shop! I loved the diversity of voices and subjects. This bookstore has something for everyone. Wonderful atmosphere that capped off a perfect afternoon in Bothell!
