Do you yearn for the days when you could walk into a bookstore and get lost in the

atmosphere?  You could grab a book or magazine, sit down on the sofa and read the latest book while the sound of a waterfall in the background adds to the tranquility.  You sip on your latte and occasionally glance around to watch the little children get their books and go into the cave to read.  The rich mahogany wood surrounding you helps add to the feel of being in a "real" bookstore.

You no longer have to daydream of the bookstore of days past - there is one in historic downtown Tuscumbia, Alabama that meets every expectation of what a bookstore should be. 

Not only does ColdWater Books have the newest - they also have the oldest.  If you are looking for history in the Shoals area, this is the place to go.  They have books by all the local historians.  Remember the silent movies???  They have those, too.  And those hard to find "one of a kind" CDs?  Check out the collection at ColdWater.

ColdWater Books is open Monday through Saturday 10:00 AM - 9:00 PM and Sunday 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM. 

Come visit us.  Bring a friend and stay a while.  Have capuccino at Big Springs coffee conveniently located inside the bookstore.  You'll be glad you came!
