“I wanted to create the bookstore I needed when I was younger,” said Kern, explaining that while many indie bookstores carry titles by queer authors, they might only carry one or two titles from a particular author, and they can be hard to locate among the thousands of other books.” As an example, he pointed out writers like T.J. Klune and V.E. Schwab, both authors with recently famous titles, but who also have large catalogs of great stories most people don’t know about.
Kern plans to carry as much of their work as will fit in his store. A well designed and organized space, Kern opened with the storefront of 300 sq.ft. with the ability to expand into an additional 500 sq.ft., currently used for storage that he hopes to grow into. Little District Books joins the recent trend of queer-owned businesses popping up on Barrack’s Row Main Street with Crazy Aunt Helen’s, a southern-comfort food restaurant launching last year, and As You Are, a queer cafe, bar, and event venue launching early in 2022.
