On sale now!

The 12 Days of Booksmas Advent box is back!

This is a book box with a special twist. 12 individually wrapped and numbered books designed to be opened at your leisure between December 1st and Christmas Eve. The box will contain new books (not previously owned) from several fiction genres and this year I am also including a few extra goodies from local women owned businesses.

Here are some details:

These boxes contain a mix of Fiction books only and I cannot do substitutions (for example historical fiction, mystery, romance, literary fiction etc.)

Each box will contain the same books - meaning if you buy 2 boxes the books will be duplicated

Each book will be individually gift wrapped and numbered. It is up to you when to open them between Dec. 1st & 24th

The boxes will be available for sale on the website only!

Boxes will be available for free LOCAL PICKUP or they can be shipped within Canada but please be aware that shipping cost is extra.

There will be a LIMITED number of these boxes available so set a reminder! They sold out quickly last year.

The Canadian Independent Bookstore Day Bookstore Crawl is back on Saturday April 25, 2026!

Our crawl returns for year two, and this time, Hopeless Romantic Bookshop and Little Ghosts Books are joining the lineup!

Pick up your passport on Saturday, April 25th at any participating store and start exploring. Visit each shop to collect a stamp, then leave your passport at the final store on your route to be entered into a draw.

Visit 3 out of 5 stores for a chance to win a $20 gift card or complete all 5 for a chance to win a $50 gift card to the bookstore you leave your passport at. No purchase is required to participate.

Every stop will have something a little different going on, so check each store's Instagram to plan your route and make the most of the day!

Part of the adventure will include waiting in line at peak times. Canadian Independent Bookstore Day is one of the busiest days of the year for independent bookstores, and many of us have small storefronts with limited capacity, so lines are a normal part of the day across participating shops. We recommend building in a little extra time and flexibility as you make your way through the crawl!

Thank you for understanding and THANK YOU for choosing to support independent bookstores! We are so appreciative of each and every one of you.

Grab your friends, map your stops, and we'll see you on the crawl!
