Judging by the Cover: A Bookstore
Judging By The Cover: A Bookstore aims to be Fresno's premier destination for progressive literature, catering to the diverse tastes and interests of book lovers who seek narratives that celebrate marginalized stories and voices.
Judging By The Cover (JBTC) will stand out as an independent bookstore dedicated to uplifting authors traditionally excluded from the literary canon.
Our dream of a brick-and-mortar store and community space has become a reality! As of October 22, 2024 you can shop with us at 1029 F St, Fresno, CA 93706 in Fresno’s Historic Chinatown.
We also curate a wide-ranging collection of fiction, nonfiction, and poetry that mirrors the experiences of queer, feminist, and BIPOC communities here on Bookshop. 30% of every sale goes towards keeping this store running.
