Bloomington, Indiana
Volunteer-run nonprofit bookshop with one of Indiana's best-curated queer studies sections
Opened in 2024 as a volunteer-run nonprofit, Redbud Books fills the gap left when Boxcar Books closed back in 2017 and gave Bloomington's activist-literary community a home again. The shelves lean heavily into social justice, independent press, and local authors, with a dedicated queer studies section that's one of the best-curated in any indie bookstore this side of Indianapolis. It functions as a third space as much as a shop — the kind of place where you browse for an hour, strike up a conversation with a stranger, and leave with three books you didn't know you needed. Readings, zine launches, and community events keep the calendar full.
