About Us


Welcome to Story Line Books, a new stop for literature in the beating heart of downtown St. Paul, MN. Freshly open in Lowertown, we believe in the power of reading to inspire, connect, and transform. Our shelves are filled with everything from beloved classics to contemporary gems, including local authors and an awful lot of books with trains in them. If we don’t have it, we can almost always get it, and we are always ready to recommend your next great read or help you discover hidden treasures. As a small independent bookstore, we are passionate about curating a diverse collection of books that reflect the vibrant stories of our community and beyond.

St Paul is a reader town, and we aim to be a reader place. Join us for author readings, book clubs, and community events that celebrate the written word and foster connections among fellow readers.

Thank you for supporting local businesses. We invite you to step inside, explore our shelves, and become part of our literary family!
