About Us

While working in a donation center in 2021, we witnessed something that struck us deeply.

Every day, thousands of books were being shipped away to recycling centers, where their words and charms were lost forever.

Fueled by this insight, we set out on a mission to give these neglected narratives a new lease on life and connect them with customers that treasure them the way we do. We partnered with a local recycling company, carefully sorting through their stockpile, and handpicking the books that still held the promise of captivating readers' hearts. We loaded up a Prius and a Mini Cooper with our favorite titles, hit the road, and never looked back.

 

This journey isn't just about salvaging literature.

It’s about embracing the beauty of secondhand goods, the kind that tell a story not just through words but through the passage of time etched on their pages.

With a foundation of sustainability and nostalgia, we’ve spent the last few years pouring our energy into this mission. Thanks to people like you, we’ve given new homes to over 10,000 books and counting!
