The 2025 Houston Bookstore Crawl: Houston Book Warehouse

I was delighted to participate in the Second Annual Houston Bookstore Crawl #HTXBookCrawl25 in April. Here is a map I made of the twenty-five indie bookstores in the Houston area.

How it worked: I picked up a crawl card at Then & Now Bookstore in Galveston, one of the 25 participating stores. I got my card stamped or signed by each of the stores I visited through the end of April. Once I visited 10, I submitted my card to any of the participating bookstores to be entered into a raffle for gifts. Every store I hit after the first 10 counts as an additional entry. The cards had to be turned in by the end of business on April 30.

April 26 was Indie Bookstore Day, and indie bookstores all over the US hosted events. Take a look at the map here to see what events were held in April.

Houston Book Warehouse

The Houston Book Warehouse is in a big space in an industrial area of Houston.

It was fun to meet a fellow Bookstore Crawler.

It's filled with bargains...if you look carefully.

Staff was helpful.

I got my tenth stamp for the crawl...and turned it in...though I couldn't resist going to two more bookstores...
