Great selection of books as well as cards and journals. A must visit in Iowa City and love the cafe too.
Steve Brantley
No visit to Iowa City is complete without a stop at Prairie Lights. It is a literary and cultural institution on par with Powell's in PDX or City Lights (P.L.'s namsake?) in SF.

I got a Black Stallion, it was delicious.

I have enjoyed shopping at Prairie Lights since 1980. We're lucky to have it in Iowa City.

Excited to discover an Iowan writer is featured in the best sports writing of 2019 book. Try and figure out who it is!
Steve Roach
Great bookstore and they will order what they do not have. Frequently have readings and the coffee shop is great.

Great place to support local community efforts. If you need a book, come here and skip Barnes and Noble.
