"Over the course of last year on the Women Who Travel podcast, Lale and I heard from Cafe Con Libros’s Kalima DeSuze and Books Are Magic’s Emma Straub about how much independent bookstores need our continued support. I’m spending the winter in Dallas, so I had to stop by my two hometown favorites to stock up on winter reads. First up was Interabang Books, which used to be right around the corner from my parents’ house until it took a near direct hit from a tornado last year. Since then, the store has permanently relocated a short drive away, and is still filled with a great selection, the same helpful staff, and pointed book recommendations. It remains my go-to for bestsellers."
