I love this little book store, they are so nice in there!

Mopti Sevare

Awesome selection of books. I love this place. Always get in to purchase one book and end up buying 3 or 4. My go to place when u need a good read. And I feel really good about supporting small businesses in my neighborhood.

Brooke Peterson

I love this store! It's the type of store I go into when I'm not looking for anything specific. If I have a specific book I want, I know there's a chance it won't be here, but they'll always order it for you! This is the best book store in the area to go in to if you don't know what you're looking for and want to pick up an amazing book you've never heard of.

Nicole Jackson

This is one of the best bookstores I’ve ever been to, and I’ve been to plenty! Their inventory is top notch, the store is easy to maneuver and navigate, and the employees are the perfect level of “here to help however you need but also we will let your introverted book loving self browse for a long time.” Definitely check this hidden gem out!

I order a book from this store a week ago and it came in really quick! Oliver was really helpfully and got me my favorite book online! Best Bookstore I've been too!

David Stuart

My wife and I love this sweet neighborhood bookstore. The staff is always so welcoming and helpful - we've both enjoyed a handful of staff-recommended reads and always look forward to our next visit. And ordering new releases over the phone has also been incredibly easy in case that's your thing! Thankful to have you in West Seattle, Paper Boat!

Christian Schubert

Very nice local bookstore. Quaint and very friendly staff. Good selection for small place but they will help you find whatever or order for you. Support local bookstores! Also, the drummer of Modest Mouse owns this bookstore from rumors I hear.

Sarah

We love Paper Boat! The shop is very cozy and has a genuine laid-back neighborhood vibe, the staff are great, and if they don’t have a book in stock, they will work with you to order it. Paper Boat Books has become a West Seattle staple, and we always take visitors here to show off the area! Shop local! 😊 …

Kali Poore

Super cute bookstore with very friendly/helpful staff!

Laurie Garcia

Such a great little, local, family-owned bookstore. It's small and cozy. The kids section has some great books with awesome art. They also have games, journals, etc. Very thoughtfully stocked items. My husband delivers to them on his UPS route and is always impressed with their service and books. Highly recommend them!

Tegan Tigani

We always find so many things to buy in this charming, well-curated bookstore. They have the best in new releases but also oldies-but-goodies that weren't on our radar. There are also fun pens, great cards, and other wonderful gift items plus friendly, helpful staff. Worth a trip on the water taxi and West Seattle shuttle/ walk if you're in Seattle! It's a delightful destination.

Becca Judy

Such a great neighborhood bookstore! We love it.

Bought two books and I will definitely visit again

As a teacher, I love having a local bookstore I can rely on when I need a new read aloud for my classroom. The staff at Paper Boat Booksellers are friendly, thoughtful, and knowledgeable and have made my many, many trips into the store a delight. When I order a book, I can be assured it will arrive when they say it will. They always carry a variety of new and noteworthy books as well as the classics my student's adore. I am a regular customer at Paper Boats and will continue to be for many years. Many thanks to the lovely folks at Paper Boat Booksellers!

Jimmy Naron

Always love supporting this little shop:) great vibes and sure beats online shopping

Cheryl Richmond

I love this sweet little bookstore SO much. Thoughtfully laid out/organized, and wow, what a great selection! It’s also really nice to have an indie bookstore in the south end of West Seattle again. Thx to D & E for bringing it to the community, I hope they’re in biz for decades to come!

Kieran Schaefer

Fun local book shop. It's a small store but always has the current popular books, and carries classics as well. It also has a nice selection of non-book items such as journals and arts and crafts supplies.

S Page

Great local bookstore run by a caring family—adds immensely to West Seattle’s quality of life! They’ve fulfilled over 5 of my requests to order books during the pandemic, all in a timely and attentive manner. Try them before ordering from Whatchamacallazon whenever you can, please.

Cristy Pacheco

Wonderful selection of books as well as other fun things, and very easy to order books they don’t have in stock. The staff is always lovely. Great place!

Lynn Marie Argento

Love this place! Has an amazing selection and can always special order if I need to. The staff always has great suggestions as well. Love to come in here and get inspired for the next fun read. Love that they support local authors with readings and signings.

Pamela Shaw

What a lovely bookstore, and what a delight that we have it in West Seattle! There's a terrific selection (obviously thoughtfully curated) of popular contemporary fiction, (as well as the "classics") but it's balanced with plenty of "eclectic" titles, for those of us who like occasionally straying off the beaten path. There's also an impressive young adult section; it seems like a great place for children to lose themselves in a book. I certainly enjoyed my time there, the folks behind the counter were both welcoming and knowledgeable - can't wait to go back!

Damian Brooks

One of the best book stores in the city. Interesting curated selection and great staff.

Ruth Reiser

This was a very nicely laid out little local bookstore. I found everything I was looking for and there were a lot of nice bookstore kinds of items like totes, bookmarks, cards, etc.

Brittany Bowie

This bookstore is a perfect addition to our West Seattle neighborhood! They have a good sized collection and are reasonably priced! They are very cozy, and welcoming with approachable and helpful staff. I am very excited to have them around!

Leon Rosengrant

A beautiful store filled with with a thoughtful mix of classic and modern books. I found everything I was looking for easily with their organized layout and felt comfortable in the warmth of the shop. When I asked for a book I was referred to a young woman who "has read everything by now." She found it without even having to look at the computer. I will definitely be back.

Ben Bradford

I'm very happy to have this cozy little book store open up in our neighborhood. The woman working the register was super friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was very relaxing. I'll definitely be back for more books and to check out some of the best events they host.

Such a gift for West Seattle. The staff is always helpful - just popped in to pickup a new book. If they don't have a title they will get it normally within a week. Feels great to support a local business!

Wilhelmina Colby-Oosterwyk

Love this bookstore! Excellent selection with plenty of POC and LGBTQ+ representation. I went to the grand opening, and loved it. I end up coming home with books every time I visit! It;s hard to resist the charm of this lovely bookshop.

Josh Chadd

In the age of Amazon it takes a special kind of person to open a bookstore. The proprietors of Paper Boat Booksellers have shown that mindfulness and careful human curation make for a far better experience than any algorithm could generate. Come to the store for your next great read from an awesome NW author, a thoughtful gift for a friend, or just to hangout in a comfy chair during a cold and rainy winter's day. Our family loves this store. It has instantly become a part of the neighborhood, and it's easy to see why.

Kim Grummel

Adorable fun bookstore with several popular titles and a varying selection of gifts and art supplies. Small space but fun to wander around and explore.

James Proctor
