Back of Beyond Book Store

I love visiting this bookstore every time I am in town. The owner is wonderful and I love the selection of books and maps. There are some cool books on the local history and geography of Moab, the National Parks, and the Colorado Plateau. Definitely worth the trip!

Super adorable bookstore in Moab! Great selection, and loved the games section. I bought a book and small board game both themed to national parks / hiking — very on brand for my trip. It was perfect!

Grateful for the ambience and unique swath of quality finds at this one of a kind bookshop gracing Main Street Moab. What a cool spot with idiosyncrasies galore and lots to explore. Thank you for making my first time visit to this beautiful place in space all the more special.

Arguably the greatest bookstore, anywhere. I'm a huge Abbey/MWG fan and somehow missed that this existed when planning my Moab trip. I wandered in and couldn't believe my luck at how much cool stuff they have. Great book selection, but even better Abbey historical collection. I won't spoil it all, but the beer cans were my favorite.

Great book selection, cards, journals, and pens too! The atmosphere is conducive to browsing, which is a bonus. I love supporting independent book stores and this one is in my favorites list! A must visit when you're having some down time in Moab.

A well curated selection of good books for all ages and interests. Also, a wide-variety of really good area maps for every enthusiast. Good YA and kids fiction selection. Plus, Ed Abbey's desk and really cool variety of first-editions from many social scientists, like Frank Dobie.

This little bookstore has a wonderful variety of local books. They even have a great variety of all genres to look through. Excellent staff that is always super friendly.
