A Bookstore like None Other.


A few weeks ago, I went in search of a book. It was hard to find, not carried at any major bookstores, and few places online had it for a reasonable price. I decided to take a stop in to one of the most talked about bookstores in town, Changing Hands. Located on the corner of McClintock and Guadalupe, Changing Hands is the center for all literary events in Tempe. With a list of guest appearances a mile long, something going on every night, Changing Hands is a great place to grab a book and head over to the bakery for a muffin and waste an afternoon away.

Not only do they have a large selection of books (the size of the establishment is decieving from the road), they also have a handful of art peices and great gift ideas. They share a space with the Wildflower Bread Company, so make a day of your trip out to this Tempe gem.

PS - Not only did I enjoy my time at Changing Hands, the staff was beyond helpful: my book was located right away, and kept at the register for me while I shopped around. What wonderful service!
