PFLUGERVILLE, Texas (KXAN) -- A sizable social media response may allow local bookstore The Book Burrow to reach its goal of selling 1,000 books by July 12, which would let the business find a new home.

The Book Burrow currently occupies a space in the Three Legged Goat, a wine and craft beer bar located at 200 E Pecan St. in Pflugerville. It moved into that space in Spring 2023, but the business has been in operation since 2021. During 2021-2023, the business sold books from pop-up locations.
Kelsey Black, the store's owner, said that they still need to sell 100-200 more books to meet the goal.
But options and time are limited for the queer-owned indie bookstore; a renovation at the Three Legged Goat will require them to move.
"There is no new location at the moment as there is no available commercial space in Pflugerville. So we are improvising and hopefully getting a skoolie," said Black, using a slang term for a renovated school bus.

According to Black, a July 2 Facebook post calling for support triggered a rush of support for the store, resulting in 20 times the store's average daily revenue. She said that she "remains hopeful but anxious about the store’s future."
