Once upon a time,

the mother of the Two Brothers worked at a quaint independent bookstore in Las Vegas, New Mexico. It was there that she began fantasizing about having her own shop where she could play among books all day. Thirteen years later, in the midst of a global pandemic, One Door Down was born.

One Door Down is an odd little bookstore, gift shop, coffee shop and cocktail bar nestled in the heart of historic Idaho Springs, Colorado. Did we also mention it's just one door down from the famous Two Brothers Deli?

An ODD little bar with books.

Uniquely crafted, and maybe a little odd, coffee and cocktails. Try our Vanilla Lavender Latte, wine on tap, or for a serious kick, the Raging Mule!

Bestsellers.

Before She Disappeared / Lisa Gardner

"From #1 New York Times-bestselling author Gardner comes a propulsive thriller featuring an ordinary woman who will stop at nothing to find the missing people that the rest of the world has forgotten."

Becoming / Michelle Obama

"Michelle Obama describes her triumphs and her disappointments, both public and private in a deeply personal reckoning of a woman of soul and substance who has steadily defied expectations."

The Invisible Life of Addie Larue / V.E. Schwab

"Making a Faustian bargain to live forever but never be remembered, a woman from early eighteenth-century France endures unacknowledged centuries before meeting a man who remembers her name."

Untamed / Glennon Doyle

"There is a voice of longing inside every woman. We strive so mightily to be good: good mothers, daughters, partners, employees, citizens, and friends. We believe all this striving will make us feel alive. Instead, it leaves us feeling weary, stuck, overwhelmed, and underwhelmed. We look at our lives, relationships, and world, and wonder: Wasn't it all supposed to be more beautiful than this? We quickly silence that question, telling ourselves to be grateful."

A Promised Land / Barak Obama

"In this anticipated first volume of his presidential memoirs, Barack Obama tells the story of his improbable odyssey from young man searching for his identity to leader of the free world, describing in personal detail both his political education and the landmark moments of the first term of his historic presidency--a time of dramatic transformation and turmoil."

The Midnight Library / Matt Haig

"While we all wonder how our lives might have been, what if you had the chance to go to the library and see for yourself? Would any of these other lives truly be better? Nora Seed finds herself faced with the possibility of changing her life for a new one, following a different career, undoing old breakups, and realizing her dreams of becoming a glaciologist."

Bridgerton: The Duke and I / Julia Quinn

"By all accounts, Simon Basset is on the verge of proposing to his best friend's sister--the lovely and almost-on-the-shelf--Daphne Bridgerton. But it's all an elaborate ruse to keep Simon free from marriage-minded society mothers. And as for Daphne, surely she will attract some worthy suitors now that it seems a duke has declared her desirable."

The Return / Nicholas Sparks

"The story of an injured army doctor connecting with a beautiful deputy and a mysterious teenage girl, both whose secrets will change the course of his life."

Where the Crawdads Sing / Delia Owens

"Fans of Barbara Kingsolver will love this stunning debut novel from a New York Times bestselling nature writer, about an unforgettable young woman determined to make her way in the wilds of North Carolina, and the two men that will break her isolation open."

The Dutch House / Ann Patchett

"Set over the course of five decades, the New York Times-bestselling author's latest is a dark fairy tale about two smart people who cannot overcome their pasts."

Anxious People / Fredrik Backman

"Looking at real estate isn't usually a life-or-death situation, but an apartment open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes a group of strangers hostage. The captives include a recently retired couple who relentlessly hunt down fixer-uppers to avoid the painful truth that they can't fix their own marriage."

The Vanishing Half / Brit Bennett

"The Vignes twin sisters will always be identical. But after growing up together in a small, southern black community and running away at age sixteen, it's not just the shape of their daily lives that is different as adults, it's everything: their families, their communities, their racial identities."
