Why shop Bookstore.org?



Why shop online elsewhere? Because Bookshop.org is all about supporting local bookstores! While Amazon often overshadows small local shops, Bookshop provides a better alternative for online book shopping. If we don't have it, you can find it here.


Their Mission:


How it works

When you select your local bookstore on the map above and visit their Bookshop.org page, we place a cookie in your browser that identifies you as that store's customer, and the store will get the full profit from all your Bookshop.org purchases (30% of the book's list price).


What if I don't choose a store?

If you don't choose a store, your purchase will contribute to a profit pool that is divided among all our participating bookstores.


So, please, if you make a purchase on Bookshop.org, select From the Ground Up Books, either La Grange or Shepherdsville and support us!
