Narren's Books is where Brian gets a good look at Flunky The Dumb White Dog, a book written by Stewie that makes him look like an idiot in "Movin’ In (Principal Shepherd’s Song)". He also runs into a blood-covered Dr. Hartman who is looking for a book on the pancreas. During a later book signing, Brian presents Stewie with a defamation lawsuit.
The bookstore is named after storyboard artist Michael Narren.
