Chris, the owner of Cozy Corner Books and Coffee |
I love this used bookstore, so I'm very glad to still have one nearby! Cozy Corner has a great collection to browse, reasonable prices, and a "cozy" atmosphere to read and enjoy coffee. They even give you credits on books you return for discounts on new purchases.

As usual, I checked out the local books section. I love it, they consider Canada local. There were several Canadian titles, but I chose My First Summer in the Sierra by John Muir. It's a classic originally published in 1911.
Books are well organized by topic and attractively displayed. |
On a shelf near the window you'll find books from Wayne's Coastal BC Stories series. Maybe one will still be there when you arrive. But never fear, there's lots of wonderful books to choose from.
You will find Cozy Corner Books at 5722 2nd Avenue in Ferndale, Washington. They are open Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 to 5:00. You can also reach them by phone at
If you're a book lover, you've got to visit the Cozy Corner. -- Margy
Looks like my kind of place! I read about a hundred books a year! :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm an avid reader too. I love print books, but also read ebooks on my Kindle or iPhone when a large book is hard to carry. - Margy
DeleteThat looks like the kind of place I could spend ages and ages in.
ReplyDeleteHis Bellingham store was three times as large, but this one is nice too. He is looking for a larger space where he can afford the rent. Bookstores have such a hard time staying open these days. - Margy
DeleteWe were sad to see the Bellingham store close - though Ferndale is not that far away. We've been to the store and the number of books is astonishing - something for everyone.
ReplyDeleteI hear he is trying to expand into other parts of the same building. That would be good to have more room for books and places to sit and enjoy reading. - Margy
DeleteWe don't have many small book stores here, we used to have Borders which we liked, much better than Barnes & Nobel. It's nice to have a bookstore you can enjoy
ReplyDeleteSmall bookstores have a hard time competing with the online sales. I hate to see them go. - Margy
DeleteThat is a great bookstore! I'm sure I could while away a few hours there!
ReplyDeleteI go about once a month or so to see what is new. - Margy
