Bookstores, (L)ittle and big

Washingtonian magazine recently compiled a list of "21 Independent Bookstores to Browse in the D.C. Area." It's a useful roundup, which includes several local purveyors of fine literature I didn't know about. But thanks to our friend Mark Osele, who recently shopped there, I see that it inexplicably omits Little District Books, which bills itself as "A Celebration of LGBTQIA+ Authors and Stories." Located on Barracks Row at 737 8th St. SE, it sounds quite promising, so I plan to check it out for myself soon. 


Update: Washingtonian has just rectified its sin of omission by interviewing Little District's founder, Patrick Kern. (A tip of the hat to Octavio Roca for alerting me to that.)
