Utah’s small businesses are what makes our state great. Sure, you can go to a big box store to buy a stack of books, but why would you do that when you can visit a quaint, charming little shop that’s filled with friendly, knowledgeable people who are readers themselves?
King’s English has a special place in our hearts, and it’s one of our favorite places to feed our book addictions. We love to visit the shop in person, but we recently discovered that we can also order online, and they’ll ship our supply of books right to our front doors. Check it out:
The King’s English bookshop has been a neighborhood favorite since it opened in 1997.
The King’s English/Facebook It’s located in the 15th and 15th area of Salt Lake City, and it’s one of the most charming bookstores ever.
You could spend hours and hours browsing the shelves here. You’ll find everything from fiction to travel to cookbooks, and if you’re not sure what to read, you can always ask a member of the staff.
The King’s English/Facebook The staff here is amazing! They’re all readers themselves, and happy to help you find just the right book for you.
The children’s section at The King’s English is a true treasure, and families love to visit for story time.

Unfortunately, visiting the bookshop in person isn’t always an option.
The King’s English/Facebook Social distancing would be nearly impossible in this cozy bookstore, and as of March 28, 2020, the shop is closed to the public.
This is a great time to stock up on all the books you’ve been meaning to read, but if the shop is closed to the public, where will you stock up on books?
The King’s English/Facebook You could order from a huge, online website (we won’t name any names), but why would you do that? Shopping locally helps small businesses like The King’s English continue to provide excellent service in the community.
So, if you can’t visit in person, how can you help? Order online!
