Downtown St. Paul New, general

Subtext Books

Downtown St. Paul’s independent bookstore, on the ground floor at Fifth and Wabasha after years in a basement. Sharp staff curation, a busy author-event schedule, and one of the few reasons to make a deliberate trip into the downtown core on a weekend. Compact and well-run.
