A new book store named Blue Jay Books is setting up shop inside Old Soul Exchange.

Rachel McCartney, owner of Old Soul Exchange said Annie Flores, owner of Blue Jay Vintage, is a current vendor at the vintage shop with a niche for vintage books.

"We're [going to] set it up like a little, mini bookstore where you can shop by category," McCartney said.

Blue Jay Books will sell a variety of vintage paperbacks, coffee table books, magazines, true crime, horror and more.

McCartney noted that the town has not had a bookstore since Half Price Books closed in 2022.


"I know there's some little nooks in certain shops and stuff but this is [going to] be a spot where I feel like the students could come and find stuff for assignments, where folks could come and find that next good book to read," she said.
