DDR Books

This is the best bookstore I’ve visited in the state of South Dakota, which is a little odd because it’s in a smaller city (pop. 22,000).

I had a lovely conversation with the owner, who was a local high school debate teacher for 40 years. He tells me that he and his wife had to expand their home four times to store their personal library of 14,000 books, in addition to the 50,000 they keep at the store.

He also tells me that he gets quite a few shoppers from the Twin Cities area, which is notable, because there’s certainly no shortage of bookstores there.

DDR Books is a local bookstore in Watertown, South Dakota. DDR Books sells new and used books and specializes in rare first edition books, along with books signed by the authors. Stop in or check out our selection online!
