Confetti Antiques & Books Holds Author Marathon During Spanish Fork Fiesta Days

One of the book world’s “best kept secrets” is a quaint store in Spanish Fork, Utah, called Confetti Antiques & Books. For those in the know, it’s a favorite place to browse for hard-to-find, out-of-print, used, and rare books. They also offer many new titles from LDS Publishers, including Deseret Book, Covenant Communications, Cedar Fort, Signature Books, Millennial Press, and more. They also sells LDS Books on consignment.

To quote from Confetti Antiques’ website, “We specialize in LDS, Latter-day Saint or Mormon books both non-fiction and fiction; LDS art and photography; and anything Utah. If you love LDS Church history, biographies of early saints, teachings of the Prophets and Apostles, Book of Mormon or scripture commentaries, then you have found a home!”

In addition, Confetti Antiques buy hardcover and paperback books. They pay cash for non-fiction (such as biography, history, science) and are always looking for books of special interest to Utah and the Mormons, with particular emphasis on rare editions. If you have books to sell please call them at 801-798-0137 or send an email to info@confettibooks.com.

Confetti Antiques & Books add new titles daily and strive to offer something for everyone. Take a peek at their categories and titles at their website. If you fill out their off-line search form, they will search their off-line inventory, other bookstores, and book search services for you.
