ABOUT US

IT’S ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE

Located in the heart of Bend’s NorthWest Crossing Community, Roundabout Books is a full-service independent bookstore. We take tremendous pride in our highly curated selection of new adult and children’s books. We also carry a variety of greeting cards, journals, puzzles & games, and related gifts. Our in-store café serves locally-sourced snacks, coffee, and tea for you to enjoy during your stay, and our bookstore offers free Wi-Fi as well as several cozy chairs and coffee tables.

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN

Roundabout Books is an independently owned bookstore and cafe founded by local resident Cassie Clemans, a former teacher and business owner. The bookstore opened on October 31, 2016. Her vision is to enhance the life of our community by providing a warm and comfortable place where people of all ages are welcome to read, browse, shop for books, meet a friend, or enjoy an event.

LEARN SOMETHING NEW

The Roundabout Team works hard to plan regular events that are of interest to our community. We host weekly author readings and signings where you can meet your favorite authors in person. We also host several book clubs, which are open for anyone to join on a drop-in basis. They meet monthly and include a variety of genres. Twice monthly, we bring Storytime to our kids corner for the little ones to enjoy, and often we have children’s authors reading in the store on Saturdays. Join us!

MAY WE SUGGEST...

Cassie writes a monthly newsletter that addresses all the latest news of the bookshop, new book releases, and collects the months’ author events, book clubs, seasonal events, and any other bookstore activity into one convenient email.
