Visit the booth.
The Picky Reader isn't only online. You'll find a curated book booth — good books, chosen with the same picky care — tucked inside Mercantile at the Ridge, the antique mall in East Ridge, just off I-75 in Chattanooga — on Aisle 8. Come browse the shelves in person: used and vintage finds, a few notable picks, and the occasional treasure worth pulling down.

What you'll find
The booth is a curated corner of the store, not a pile of everything. Expect used and vintage theology, biblical studies, and other good books worth a slow read — priced fairly, one copy at a time, with a few Picky Reader picks flagged so you know why they earn shelf space.
Love something you saw? Scan the card at the booth to get a curated shelf in your inbox each week, or browse the full library online — the same picky taste, whether you're standing in the aisle or reading from home.
Can't make it in? The Picky Reader lives online too — new theology every week on the shelves, plus a used shelf you can shop from anywhere.
