About The Book Worm Bookstore, LLC Georgia, United States

Biblio member since 2020

The Book Worm Bookstore originally opened its doors in October 2005. With the owner ready to retire, new ownership happened in November 2020. We are home to over 30,000 titles - both new and used. Although the majority of our inventory is online we do have in-store items not listed. Please contact the store directly if there is something you don't see.

We just joined Biblio in May 2020, and with the change of ownership, are finding some inconsistencies with our database. Since items come and go daily, we may have a higher rate of rejecting orders so our rating may not be stellar for a bit. Don't hold it against us as we are working diligently to get our database updated. Thank you for supporting your local community bookstore.

Be sure to follow us on Facebook, Instagram, and TikTok.

Terms of Sale: 20% restocking fee and return of original purchase price paid once we receive the order back if you choose to return items within 14 days of order but must send for an authorization number.
Return shipping and original shipping not refunded. 30 day return guarantee, with full refund including original shipping costs for up to 30 days after delivery if an item arrives misdescribed or damaged only upon request with pictures showing issues.
