Welcome to Copper Cat Bookstore — Henderson’s Independent Haven for Book Lovers.
Opened in December 2017, Copper Cat Bookstore proudly holds the title of the only independent bookstore in Henderson, Nevada. On December 9, 2024, we celebrated seven wonderful years of stories, community, and the joy of reading.
We specialize in used books and carry a thoughtfully curated selection of new releases we think our readers will truly enjoy. You’ll also find a charming variety of gifts, reading accessories, and a few delightful surprises — music boxes, quirky pillows, a bit of jewelry… even the occasional oddity (because, well, I’m a bit odd, and I own it).
Whether you’re a lifelong reader, a casual browser, or just looking for a cozy spot with character, Copper Cat is here for you. Come in and find something unexpected.

Help Save Copper Cat Books!
Since 2017, Copper Cat Books has strived to be the best local used book store. We have been well supported by the community and we have supported our community - especially local authors who sign their books here, local animal rescues to run adoption events here, and many charitable organizations throughout the region.
Due to increased rent and some exceptional expenses, we aren't thriving and are close to havin gto make a hard decision to close our doors permanently. It is not an easy decision to make but without major financial support, we will have no choice.
We have started a GoFundMe Campaign. If you are reading this, we truly consider you a friend of the store and hope you might be able to make a donation. If most people are able to donate even $20, it would get us past this difficult spot. Please help if you can and continue sharing us with your reading friends. Your donation and support will go a long way to ensure we are here today and into the future!
Hours, Hospitality, and a Little Copper Cat Magic
Now, those are our published hours — but let’s be honest, we live in the Vegas Valley, and this is a 24/7 kind of town. So here’s our real policy:
If you’re here at closing time, we won’t ask you to leave.
If the lights are on and the door’s locked, knock. You just might get a private, after-hours shopping experience.
Our slogan?
“Not a curiosity shop, but a shop for the curious.”
Because our shelves are always changing — and you never know what treasure you’ll find….and remember, what is here today, may be gone tomorrow, so if you find something you want….(well, you know)…
Prefer to Shop from Home?
No problem. Head to our Books & Movies tab on the website and scroll down to find links to download our Warehouse Excel Lists. These searchable spreadsheets include over 62,000 books and growing — plus a newly added list of movies.
Looking for That One Special Book?
Let us be your personal book hunter! One of our free services is helping customers track down those “hard to find” or “wish I still had it” titles. Wendy lives for the thrill of the hunt — and she’ll bag that book like a pro.
If a book arrives and it’s not quite what you expected? We’ll handle the returns and hunt down a better replacement — no hassle, no charge. Just our way of making book shopping easier (and way more fun).
We’re here to help — during business hours… or whenever the lights are on.
