Haven Books Boutique

Haven Books Boutique Welcome to Haven Books! We’re so glad you’re here. We specialize in “blind date with a book” products (see description here).

Boutique bookstore • Blind date with a book • Bookish gifts • For book nerds and all the bookish girlies!!! • Online boutique plus pop-up events in Dayton, Ohio • Sourcing books from women, BIPOC, and LGBTQ+ authors It’s our mission to celebrate and create a safe space for diverse voices – voices that aren’t always heard, communities that are often marginalized or overlooked – and for readers looking to expand their reading life. Whenever possible, we source books by women authors, BIPOC authors, and LGBTQ+ authors, including some highly-rated debut authors. Each book’s packaging and extras are unique, so no two blind-date book packages are exactly alike. Our collection of books and bookish items is thoughtfully curated and growing, so please check back often. We aim to offer a plethora, a veritable smorgasbord, of wonderfully well-written books and beautifully crafted items to enhance your reading journey. Our books and book bundles make wonderful gifts for any reader in your life – or self-care items for you! Whether you’re looking for a heart-wrenching read, a new genre to shake things up, or something comforting and cozy, we hope you find some whimsy (and a ton of book nerdiness) here at our online boutique. Thank you – for supporting a small, woman-owned business, and for taking the time to breathe and share stories.
