We’ve got all the classics…London, Faulkner, Bombeck.
An eclectic mix of fantasy, philosophy, humor, history, romance, how-to and reference awaits you behind the green door at Plain Talk Books, in the heart of Des Moines’ East Village.
Come experience the texture, fragrance and history in used books at our Des Moines book store. Take a seat as you thumb through a wide selection of how-to manuals, popular mysteries, romance novels to reference books and classic literature from a time when books were the “new media.”
While you’re here, enjoy our organic coffees (from Just Coffee), made-to-order sandwiches with local ingredients and look through our selection of handmade journals, cards and other gifts.
We’re adding new and old titles every day and accept book donations of newer titles in good condition. Contact us today to see if we have the books you’ve been searching for in stock.
Stop in and see us soon. We’ll keep the coffee on.
