WordsWorth Books - Little Rock, Arkansas

Renee Pinkston

Staple bookstore in north Little Rock; if you love books you have to stop here! The employees are kind and knowledgeable about books. If you are looking for a book club, this is your place to find one! The book selection here is great and they have tons of choices of all genres.

Local independent book store with a knowledgeable owner and staff, this shop is awesome. There are book clubs to choose from, and the owner is active in the community, including the Six Bridges Book Festival. They have an entire section devoted to local authors, too.

This is the most amazing bookstore I've ever been in. I'm visiting from out of state, and my hometown has no locally owned booksellers. I'm so used to sterile, hyper commodified chain retailers that it's refreshing to walk around a store like this. The atmosphere and music are cozy, it smells really nice and distinctive, and the staff are so friendly and helpful. The handwritten Staff Picks are excellent and actually attracted me to books I would've otherwise ignored. They have a smaller collection than a Books-A-Million or Barnes & Noble, yet they have a much more varied selection of books, including titles I never see at large chains, as well as unique and beautiful book covers I've never seen before. I came in hoping to just browse a local bookstore out of curiosity, and enjoyed being there so much that I spent over $100. This is the first location other than a public library that made me palpably excited to read. If you're in Little Rock and love to read, please check this place out.

We were visiting from out of town and found something for everyone. It's a really nice bookstore.

Super cute bookstore, everyone was so welcoming and helpful! There are various items on display available for purchase by local artists. I was there for story time with my two kiddos and they had a blast. Such a cool place, definitely recommend visiting if you are looking for a new book to read, cozy bookstore experience, or a thoughtful gift for someone. Can't wait to go back!

This is not a stop on your way through town. It is a destination, make no mistake.

I can't even find the time or words to explain how energizing and joyful it is to visit this shop. Why would anyone ever willingly go to a Barnes & Noble or (god forbid) a Books-A-Million store when this place is around? They can order basically anything they don't have with free shipping in a matter of 3 days or so. The staff is welcoming, kind, and knowledgeable. These are people who care about what they're doing and are invested in their own industry's products: books! Staff recommendations sold me on books I've passed by a hundred times in my previous career as a retail chain bookstore manager. Selections in-store for every age group and genre are fantastic, and the place smells like an upscale massage parlor (i.e., AMAZING).

You can find souvenirs and gifts here, too, such as sumptuous soaps, cute stickers, toys, novelty socks, bookmarks, and more. They have local/Arkansas books and a robust children's section. The nonfiction/classics side of the store is not by any means neglected and houses reads just as enticing as the fiction side's (moreso in my humble opinion). There truly is something for everyone here, and I mean everyone.

They appear to be diversity-friendly in every way, and I experienced nothing that would say otherwise (besides a genuinely mistaken misgendering, but it happens to the best of us). I truly believe all are welcome and embraced here. I *will* make the 6-hour drive to come back next time I need a specific book. Forget B&N.

This is my favorite bookstore! The shop is cozy and cute and they carry a wide variety of books. All of the staff are welcoming, kind, helpful, and give the best recommendations! Definitely check them out!

This is my favorite bookstore in Central Arkansas. They have friendly, helpful staff members and a wide variety of reading material from bestsellers to local authors. If they don’t have something in stock they will order it for you . The homey atmosphere and knowledgeable staff make shopping at a locally owned store worth the effort of shopping in person .
