Beyond Words Bookshop Bookstore

Beyond Words Bookshop began as an event based pop up bookshop in the East Valley, mainly in East Mesa, Gilbert, and Queen Creek. In July 2025 it opened its doors to the brick and mortar shop in Downtown Mesa tucked in the Greenbelt shops across the street from the Arizona Natural History Museum and next door to Novel Ice Cream. BWB specializes in positive books that add value to your life. BWB holds a weekly story time for infants through preschool with a visiting author once a month. Monthly book club began in 2026. You can purchase the book club pick and meet at a local Downtown Mesa establishment each month and join in a great discussion. BWB also hosts "An Evening with the Author" where guests can purchase the book, get it signed, and chat with the local author. Follow our socials for our events and what's happening in the store.
