Blue Mountain Books draws its name from the mountain range that rises to the east of Walla Walla, and like those peaks, the store offers a commanding view of the literary landscape. Founded in 2001, the shop has grown alongside Walla Walla's transformation from a quiet agricultural town into one of the premier wine destinations in the Pacific Northwest. The food and wine writing section is the finest in eastern Washington, featuring everything from technical viticulture texts to lyrical food memoirs, and the staff maintains close relationships with local winemakers who frequently recommend titles. The general fiction selection is carefully curated by a team of avid readers, several of whom are Whitman College alumni. A small in-store cafe serves local wines by the glass alongside coffee and pastries, creating an atmosphere that perfectly captures the relaxed sophistication of Walla Walla. The store hosts a popular monthly wine-and-books pairing event that has become one of the most anticipated cultural gatherings in the valley.
