The Book Works

Located in the Flower Hill Mall on Via de la Valle.

Will be closing in July.

After 35 years.

It is just one of the independent bookstores that hasn’t survived in San Diego.

Because:

  • Many readers are now downloading onto electronic devices.
  • Readers that still like to hold a book and flip through pages also want the convenience of online shopping and doorstep delivery.


Which is too bad.

For readers like me.

Who came home with a bag of books today.

All unfamiliar titles.

Based on the staff’s enthusiastic recommendations.
