Communal Places for Literary Enthusiasts
I. Now located on West Lovers Lane in Dallas, Texas, Interabang Books
takes its unique name from the symbol that combines the question mark
and the exclamation point. Owner Nancy Perot knows a bit about what those
symbols represent, as well as the value of perseverance having the original bookshop,
which opened in 2017, destroyed by a tornado in 2019, followed by the recent
pandemic. Nonetheless, the store once again thrives in its new location,
offering hand-picked selections of books and gifts for adults and kids. Events
include Children’s Book of the Month subscriptions, in-person book signings, online
author, publisher, and bookseller chats, videos, and personalized reading recommendations.
They’ve temporarily discontinued the consignment program, but it’s something to
keep an eye on.
If anyone knows how to create an
Interabang symbol on a computer, do tell ;-)

rare intellect, we should ask him what books he reads” ~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
Interabang is certainly cool; and it is so inspiring to about the store..
ReplyDeleteAs for creating the symbol, I am going to see if I can use Canva to create it..

I know that area of Dallas. I used to stay near there back in the eighties when I was on the road. There were some good restaurants around there.

Hi Lee!
DeleteAccording to google maps, there are still good restaurants in that area - if they're still in business ;-)
