Book Consignment Information
Thank you for your interest in having your book available at Casita Bookstore. We are proud to support independent authors, small presses, and storytellers whose work reflects the diverse voices of our community.
Our Mission
Casita Bookstore is a community-centered bookstore that prioritizes stories from diverse, underrepresented, and marginalized voices. We are especially interested in books that amplify perspectives from BIPOC, immigrant, LGBTQ+, and other historically excluded communities. Our goal is to create a welcoming literary space where readers can discover stories that reflect the richness and complexity of our world.
Because of this mission, we carefully review each consignment request to ensure it aligns with the values and interests of our readers and community.
