Verbatim Books
I started Verbatim Books in 2015 after working at Fifth Avenue Books in Hillcrest for over ten years. Im a native San Diegan and Hillcrest is where I grew up, but at the time I lived in North Park, and since there werent any bookstores in North Park I thought Verbatim Books would fit in well. Verbatim Books started as a 1,500 square foot space and in 2019 expanded to include the building next door, bringing us to 5,000 square feet and making us the largest bookstore in San Diego currently.
