Owner

Hi, I’m Taylor! I’m the owner of Archivist Books, a queer bookstore based in Rochester, NY. My love of literature began very early and I’d often be spotted walking while reading or being told to put the book down at the dinner table. Now, I’ve curated a space for and with queer folks in mind Every book on the shelf is queer and I pride myself on sourcing small press lit and indie queer writers to have in store. Archivist is a love letter to queerness.

When I’m not reading, I’m napping, hosting sapphic dinner parties, hanging out at home with my girlfriend + our cat, or writing fanfic <3
