When visitors come to Tacoma, they can’t all go out and see the sights. Some want to stay in and take in the spectacular views from their room while curled up with a good book. Here are a couple of places that I recommend: the University Bookstore (Go Huskies!) at 1754 Pacific Avenue offers much more than just textbooks – they have a very nice general selection as well. And then there’s King’s Books at 218 St. Helens Ave., which runs its store the old fashioned way – by people who actually read books. You can go to Borders in any city, but I like to send people to these two places, where I know they’ll get a bit more of the Tacoma experience. Local readers, feel free drop me a line if you think there are other bookstores I should add to my list.
