Now Open in Cypress, Texas!
X&O Books is Northwest Houston’s first and only romance-exclusive independent bookstore and drink parlor. We are proudly Texan, completely woman-owned, and absolutely obsessed with the genre.

We’ve got iced coffee. We’ve got wine. We’ve got dirty sodas. We’ve got elevated bookish merch you’ll want to frame.
And yes, we always have the A/C on.
