A little about Us

Our Story

3Silences Books

At 3Silences Books, we’re more than just an online bookstore — we’re a small, passionate team who truly love books and the worlds they create. Our journey started with a simple idea: to share that love of reading while building a community of book lovers right here in Parkersburg.

We believe books bring people together. That’s why our dream goes beyond selling stories — we want to create a space where readers can gather, share ideas, and feel at home. Supporting small businesses and shopping local keeps our community strong, and we hope to be a part of that movement by bringing something unique and lasting to the Mid-Ohio Valley.

While we’re online today, our goal is to open a physical storefront in the near future — a local hub where community and conversation thrive as much as the love of reading.

Until then, we invite you to explore our shelves, discover new favorites, and join us on this exciting chapter.

Because we’re a small, independent bookstore, we’re unable to accept general returns for reasons such as change of mind.

Standard shipping typically takes 3-5 business days. Local drop-offs are usually 1-2 days. We do not deliver during Holidays.

We offer both new and used books. Each used book is carefully checked and graded so you’ll know exactly what to expect — whether it’s Like New, Very Good, Good or Acceptable.

We don’t sell books that are falling apart or unreadable. Our goal is to make sure every book you buy from us is something you’ll be proud to add to your shelf.
