Athena Books is an independent book store in Greenwich, CT. It is located at 228 Sound Beach Avenue.

It is open during the week from 9-6 and on weekends 10-6.

The store owners explained their vision:

"“The space is beautiful and has enough room for events and gatherings,” Bird continued. “The idea is to have both a bookstore and an evening gathering space for a variety of events. People can even host their book clubs there.”

Bird went on to explain the inspiration for the store’s name.

“My husband is Greek and we have two daughters,” she said. “Athena is the Greek Goddess of Wisdom. She is a a strong female figure, and we thought that it would be a great name for the bookstore.”

“We want Athena Books to be a gathering space for the entire community and a source of inspiration,” Bird added."
