How to find something unique this Christmas…


A small independent bookshop doesn’t always mean a little shop tucked away down a side street. It can mean a tiny bookshop hidden in plain sight, but in such a massive crowd that it can be overlooked. An online bookshop is just the shop window for what lies behind it; where every order is special, and will be handled with care, making sure that your book is personally signed and tucked into comfortable packaging for its journey to you.  To receive a book that is personally signed by the author, either for yourself or as a gift makes that book extra special, whether it’s to keep and enjoy, or to see as an investment in case that author becomes famous, it is something unique.


And the impact your purchase will have on the very real person behind the scenes of the online bookshop is immeasurable.
