Willoughby's New "Third Place"
Willoughby's vibrant community of readers, gamers, and dreamers deserves a space that celebrates their passions. Unlike traditional bookstores, The Viridian Bookshop is a "third place"—a sanctuary for gathering, connecting, and creating memories. Designed for those who seek imagination, connection, and a sense of belonging.
Curating Wonder and Delight
The Viridian Bookshop is a portal to wonder - where whimsical decor transports you and every shelf holds magic. We curate more than just books (fantasy, sci-fi, romance and more); we craft moments that linger. Come discover corners filled with delight and stories that stay with you.
Meet Chanel
Our Founder
Hi, I'm Chanel! Ever since I was a little girl, books have been my gateway to adventure, imagination, and belonging. For years, owning a bookstore was a dream that lingered in the back of my mind, tickling my brain, as a constant reminder of what I truly wanted. I’ve dreamed of creating a magical space where others can experience the same joy that reading has brought me. This project is deeply personal. With years of planning and a lifetime of love for storytelling, I’m ready to make The Viridian Bookshop a cornerstone of our community.
