Welcome to The Alchemist’s Salon
“Queerness is an enchantment. It’s a spell we cast on the world to see it differently.”
At The Alchemist’s Salon, books aren’t just stories—they’re spells, portals, and mirrors. We’re a pop-up bookstore and online community built for those who crave the strange, sacred, and subversive. Whether you're a seasoned witch, a curious skeptic, or simply a lover of queer stories, there’s a space for you here.
We curate fiction and nonfiction titles that center queer voices, magical realism, folklore, rebellion, and wonder. Every book box or pop-up visit offers more than reading—it’s a ritual. Inside, you’ll often find:
🔮 Thoughtfully selected books that challenge and enchant
🕯️ Small-batch magical gifts and tools
🐍 Aesthetic packaging with pastel goth charm
📖 Zines, tarot pulls, or mini rituals for your bookshelf
Our mission? To create a welcoming, radically inclusive space where stories empower transformation and self-discovery.
Follow us on TikTok and Bluesky to see behind-the-scenes spellcraft, bookish rituals, queer horror recs, and sneak peeks at upcoming bundles. And don’t forget to sign up for our newsletter! You get a free zine “The Queer Grimoire” and updates on upcoming events and bundles.
Whether you find us online or at a local pop-up, we hope you’ll stop by and stay a while.
