Unfortunately, due to a family event we will be closing early today at 1pm.

We are sorry for the inconvenience but the blessing and the curse of a family store is that family comes first.

Its that time of the month when you have to budget.

I have always used my Grandmother's envelope method.

This is what my Budgeting looks like. How about yours??? We will give a 10% discount on purchases August 15, IF you bring in your creative book budgeting envelopes for us to take a picture of and post on Social Media:)
Next Saturday we will be celebrating 45 years as a bookstore. Keep an eye out for updates on our socials!

Thank you for making us a part of a viable Third Space!

When I bought the store in June of 2024, my Mom shook her head and told me I was buying a Dinosaur.

"Nobody reads books Jess, they all have Kindles or stuff on their phones, Audible etc."

"But I LOVE books, and I want to have a space that other people can come in and enjoy books too," I said.

Pretty soon I made my first friend that had come into the store to buy books, we found a common ground and then they continued coming to the store.

All of you are important to me and I have enjoyed my interactions with all of you.

This year is 45 years of Clackamas Book Exchange being a store!

Thank you. Here is a great article :)
