Magic City Books

I enjoy browsing this local bookstore. They have several different bookclubs to participate in and often bring a variety of authors for special events. The parking is street parking only. The staff is lovely and super helpful. To support our local bookstore, you might spend more for a book than if you grabbed it on Amazon or Barnes and noble, just a tip in regards to pricing. They do offer a membership that provides a discount and other special features, ask them for more details. I do love the Oklahoma history and local author section. You won't find every book but they can order you must books that are available, it just might be a special order. Definitely enjoy wondering the aisles and picking up a few books. Happy reading.

I am so happy our city has a book story like this one. I just feel so calm every time I enter this space. I attend a monthly book club here and I have been to one of their adult book fairs.

Magic City Books is located in downtown Tulsa, diagonally across from Holiday Inn Express with street parking available (metered, but free on weekends after a certain time at night). I came by this bookstore with my husband and our little girl dog (yep this bookstore is dog friendly). We came on a Friday night and surprisingly there was a local author who just had a reading and was sticking around for autographs and answer questions for guests (I am not familiar with this author and do not recall the name).This small bookstore looks to only sell new books (I really love venturing to second hand bookstores because I am always able to score some really great deals and often times hard to find books or books out of print). I ended up finding a few books in their small clearance section (by the front of the store, if you go left when you enter, there is a small bookshelf and some tables and chairs) that were a really good buy (one book was ~75% off and another one I bought was ~55% off). I honestly probably would have bought more books but since we are traveling and not from the area, I am a little limited as to what I can bring back in my luggage. The employee at the register told me that books make it to the clearance are books that may have been on the shelves for a long time and no one is buying them or could be that they may only have 1 or 2 copies of that book left and have no plans to reorder. If I lived in this area, I would most likely check out the clearance area first (and often) before venturing the rest of the store. Overall, had a great shopping experience.

Great little store with wonderful selections! Locally owned supporting minorities by featuring authors you may not hav heard of before. They also support other local businesses and non profits.

Came across Magic City Books when.eating nearby and it such a lovely bookstore. There are all different types of book options and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. My favorite space is in the back of the store where there are tables and they host live author readings. They have a cute book "tree" of all the authors that have completed readings at the store. Definitely come by and check them out!

For a smaller bookstore, it carries a great selection of books! I always walk out with way more than I anticipated purchasing when I enter this store. I know that I can always find great books that are about Tulsa and Oklahoma history, black and brown authors, and inclusive and diverse children's books.There are also great gifts in here. This is a great spot to pop into for a gift for someone, including yourself! Staff are super friendly, helpful and they know and love books and are happy to give recommendations!

I love to purchase books that are not outrageously priced and you don't have to order them. They have a Greek mythology section that I love.

Fulfilling a birthday request. My daughter collects unique, regional/city themed, decorative, book bags and shopping bags (e.g., Trader Joe's.) We fulfilled the request for a bag from Magic City Books. After a stroll through the shop, perusing the wonderful, diverse, enlightening, subject matter, I was unable to find a copy of this months "Guns and Ammo." I surmised that this was not a book store for me. Oh hell, who am I trying to fool....I can't read anyway...but I do like the pictures!

Love love love this book store! From its cute, cozy vibes to the selection of books! My favorite spot was the reading nook in the back where there were cozy green chairs! I loved their selection of stickers, postcards and magnets also. Will definitely return!

Matt was super helpful in the store and providing recommendations for places to go nearby! The store has some really cool book options, definitely a must check out
