A unique secondhand book browsing experience.

We love secondhand books, and we love transparency. We provide photos of the actual books for sale, including front and back cover photos, as well as detailed descriptions of their condition.

Based in Fife, Scotland, we ship to anywhere in the UK. We have a selection from almost every genre, with a focus on science fiction, fantasy, art, and non-fiction (and we are always open to requests!). Each collection is carefully curated and selected by founder Halena, who has been selling books since 2021 (and reading books as long as she can remember being alive!).

“We read books to find out who we are. What other people, real or imaginary, do and think and feel... is an essential guide to our understanding of what we ourselves are and may become.”

-Ursula K. Le Guin

Kind words from our Customers

Excellent selection of books and an easily navigable website. Super friendly service and fast reliable shipping with beautiful packaging! So over the moon happy. Highly recommend supporting this small business.

Wonderful website! So fun looking through all the categories of great books. I struggled to control myself from having the hugest order of books. The delivery was quick and I loved the note and business card.

Companion Piece

"A story is never an answer. A story is always a question.

Here we are in extraordinary times. Is this history?

What happens when we cease to trust governments, the media, each other?

What have we lost? What stays with us? What does it take to unlock our future?

Every hello, like every voice, holds its story ready, waiting."

Only recommended for folks who are ready to look back on the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic and the ensuing lockdowns. It's a really powerful read!

Kim Kinnison, Number One man of his time, had faced challenges before—but rarely one as daunting as this. To him fell the perilous task of infiltrating the inner circle of Boskone, stronghold of galactic civilization’s most deadly foe. Kinnison had to become a local Boskonian in every gesture, deed—and thought. He had to work his way up through the ranks of an alien enemy organization, right into the highest echelons of power. Then it would be he who issued the orders—orders that would destroy his own civilization.
