My town implemented a bag tax right at the beginning of 2020. When the pandemic hit and the science on how the spread of COVID was not yet know, the tax was dropped in favor of single use bags. The tax went back into effect last August, and it has made a real difference in my own habits. I no longer forget my bags in the car, and I have a tremendous stash of reusables I utilize not just in the stores, but in picking up my library books, too. Most of my totes are nothing special — I picked up loads of $1 bags with a flat bottom from a pet store when I moved five years ago. But oh, how I love looking at bookish totes, and I may have one or two I use for “special” toting of items.

With April being Earth month, and because you can never have too many tote bags, here’s a roundup of some excellent bookish totes you’ll want to pick up. These will help you become a little bit more sustainable, allowing you to swap single-use bags for reusable ones, if you’re looking to do that. If you simply are looking for the perfect bag to carry your favorite books and a bottle of water to lounge in the park and read, these’ll do that for you, too.

Be prepared to give your wallet a little exercise here. I’ve rounded up a host of sizes, colors, and designs to ensure you find your perfect bookish tote. If you’re looking for more options, check out these library tote bags.
