A new indie bookstore opens August 31 in Leander
Husband and wife team Joe Mayes and Diane Boeglin Mayes plan to open a new and used independent bookstore in Leander, Texas, later this month called Patchouli Joe’s Books & Indulgences, Community Impact reported.
Patchouli Joe’s plans to open August 31. The bookstore, located at 106 W. Willis Street, Suite B, will sell a combination of new and used books, including fiction, nonfiction and children’s books. Coffee, soaps, and candles will also be sold at the store. The bookstore’s opening weekend will include drawings and giveaways. Store hours will be 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and closed on Mondays.
The store’s grand opening celebration, set for Labor Day weekend, will feature drawings and giveaways as well as visits from local artists and artisans.
“We are dedicated to creating not only a place to purchase books (and indulgences),” Joe and Diane Mayes wrote. “Rather, we want to create a space that engages and reaches all the senses. And not only the five physical senses. We also want your spirit engaged too.”
