Every book on our shelves, every pastry we serve, and every event we host is rooted in the idea of community.
When you buy a book or attend an event here, you’re not just supporting a store — you’re investing in a movement that keeps Denver vibrant and connected.
Books have always had a strange power. They change how we see the world, and how we see each other. The Denver Book Society began with a simple idea: what if there was a place where that power was celebrated every day?
Books are best shared
Books are best when shared. At the Denver Book Society, we believe books bring people together—through conversation, connection, and a sense of belonging. In a time when real community feels harder to come by, we’re creating a space where it can thrive.
Everyone deserves a place to belong
Everyone deserves a place to belong. We believe that bookstores should be welcoming, inclusive environments where anyone can walk in and feel at ease. Whether you’re a lifelong reader or just starting your journey, you have a place at DBS.
We read, learn, and grow together
We read, learn, and grow—together. Curiosity drives discovery, empathy, and understanding. It’s how we begin to answer the bigger questions facing our society. Every shelf at DBS is an invitation to explore something new.
We celebrate Denver — its writers, thinkers, and dreamers
We celebrate Denver—its writers, thinkers, and dreamers. We’re Denver-based and Denver-proud. Whether it’s hosting local authors or supporting neighborhood causes, we believe in our city and are here to be a part of it.
DBS is more than a bookstore — it’s a place to experience books.
Our calendar includes author readings, creative workshops, story hours, poetry nights, and community gatherings.
At DBS, membership means belonging. You’ll get access to members-only gatherings, early registration for book clubs, discounts, and special surprises.
Support independent bookstores—locally and online. Browse staff picks, buy gift cards, or join our membership program.
