There’s something inherently comforting about a bookstore, especially on a rainy day. It can be very tempting to find a seat by the window and curl up with a few magazines, one of the classics or a fun romance novel. Some bookstores also feature coffee shops, which makes the whole experience even better. In this post, we’ll discuss five bookshops in the Shreveport LA area where you can either spend an afternoon browsing or stop by on your way home from work to your fully furnished travel nurse housing rental.

- While you’re here, you have to stop by The Thrifty Peanut! This local bookshop is very close to the Willis-Knighton Pierremont hospital on Youree Drive. It’s open six days a week (closed on Sunday) and has books, vinyl records, CDs, audio books and more. Military discounts are available for all veterans.
- Looking for something closer to Bossier City? The Book Rack sells mystery novels, comic books, large print books and even cookbooks, which are perfect for getting some ideas about dinner. After all, since you’re staying in a fully furnished short term rental, you can make your own meals in the equipped kitchen!
- If you’re a serious comic book enthusiast, check out Excalibur Comics, Cards and Games. You’ll appreciate the curated selection of comics as well as board games and strategy games perfect for a game night with friends and / or coworkers on the weekend. Give Excalibur a call or check out their website or Facebook page for more information!
- Like some of the other options listed, 2nd and Charles is a used bookstore that buys your books as well as sells them. The store sells everything from books to collectibles, home decor, blankets etc. 2nd and Charles buys a wide variety of items as well, including iPods, video games, musical instruments and, of course, books. Stop by a 2nd and Charles for more information or reach out via their email address listed on the website.
- No bookshop-related list would be complete without a mention of Barnes and Noble. You’re probably already familiar with the store, since it’s located in many cities around the country. Looking for a specific book they don’t have in stock? Talk to an employee who can connect your with their large inventory and get the item ordered for you. Barnes and Noble is also a great spot to grab a coffee or sweet treat in the Cafe and work on your laptop for awhile.
