More About Bound to Be Read Books
Bound to Be Read Books was opened in 2005 after Atlanta resident Jeff McCord realized there were no independent bookstores serving southeast Atlanta. His bookstore now has an impressive array of new and used books, discount books, CDs, calendars and gifts. It also carries a selection of rare and collectible books and staff will search for and special order any titles not currently in its inventory. The store is working on a used book buy-back program, as well as a "loyal customer" incentive program. Stop in to browse the shelves and say hi to Kona, the resident bookstore cat.
