Indie Bookstore 📍Los Angeles

One of my favorite bookstores in LA is Lost Books. It’s an independent bookstore that has a mix of both new releases and used books.

The store is a haven for plant lovers that love to read. You can stop by to buy a book, grab a record, or just hang out for an event. They also have a bird cage with live birds that you can hear chirping as you walk through the maze of bookshelves.

If you love books, plants, and unique places to shop, this is definitely it!
