STORY
Welcome to Books on the Bosque!
Books on the Bosque is an independent bookstore set to open in a nearly 4000 square foot space at Riverside Plaza on Coors just north of Montano. Books on the Bosque will be the only bookstore in this expansive family-focused residential community. Our vision is to be an anchor for westside residents. We hope to be an extension of people’s homes, a safe space for kids and adults alike, where customers can spend time in. Patrons can buy a book, read while drinking a cup of coffee and enjoying a pastry, play a board game, and spend time enjoying all of it while relaxing on comfortable couches.
The store will be staffed by former librarians, teachers, and other bibliophiles who have spent many years working in bookstores. We will develop and shape our book inventory on the interests of the community, provide quiet spaces to read or study, and foster social engagement while building connections through events and community partnerships. Books on the Bosque will bring diverse offerings to a community that has a void of bookstores.
Books on the Bosque will have a large inventory of new and used books. We sell new releases and best sellers, local authors and publishers and books about New Mexico and the regions. We will also sell merchandise such as unique gift items made by local artisans, reading accessories, learning games, journals, coloring books, puzzles, and so much more.
