Bluestocking Social

There’s so much I could rave about this "hidden" bookstore tucked away near the university district. Their selection of both classics and emerging titles is stellar, and I always walk away with more books than I originally go seeking. Their merch, especially their stickers, are great for any fan of collecting them—cute, quirky, simple, and even local jokes galore! They also offer great art supplies and I’ve heard nothing but good things about their events. They’ve helped me every time as an educator in ordering books for my classroom library, too! Their customer service is top notch, especially the real head honcho, Huxley the Pug. Family-owned and proud of it, Bluestocking Social is a must-place stop for anyone, whether it’s an Evansville native or someone passing through town.

Really fun bookstore. Nice selection of titles plus a corner of basic art supplies. Worth a visit. I'd have given it 5 stars but it's sadly inaccessible due to it being in a basement down a steep set of stairs. Which is a shame because it's otherwise a gem of a place.

Cool bookshop with the perfect vibes and decent selection. Easily perusable shelves and a few other items for sale. Staff were friendly and prices were expected.

My wife and I love Bluestocking Social! We're always able to find our next read, even if we're just stopping in too see Huxley the shop pug. I can especially speak to the quality of their horror and thriller selection since that's I love reading the most, but they of course have much more than that. And if you can't what you're looking for they're more than happy to special order books anytime. I'm very grateful for that, as we tend to keep a steady TBR pile at home.

i was greeted by the store pug, huxley, and staff knew exactly where the book i wanted was! i really appreciate that their entire catalog is online so i could pop in and out on my lunch break.

Picked up a sticker and a book. Friendly owners and sweet pup, Huxley. Overall, always nice to pop in. I think they would do better in a different location due to the structural/sewer issues of the building and surrounding area.

Best bookstore in town! From the art, to the great selection of books, to the cutest pug… this bookstore never fails!!! I took an art class here years ago and still use the tools and skills I learned in that class!
