about us
Book Besties is a community-led lifestyle brand that creates fun bookish merch and hosts a bunch of events through the year.
Books and reading are cool and fun! We create products that celebrate that.
We pride ourselves on creating a welcoming environment for all book lovers to come together and embrace each others diverse opinions and reading preferences.
Reading may be something that you do solo but that doesn’t mean you should miss on finding a community to share that with.
Books, but make it fun
We love books without taking ourselves too seriously. From bookish goodies to events, workshops and chaotic reading chats, everything we do is designed to make being a reader more fun.
Community first
Book Besties is about making reading feel less solitary. We create spaces where readers can show up, connect, make friends and feel like they belong.
Built for book lovers
Everything we create starts with the reader in mind. Useful products, thoughtful experiences and a community that actually gets the obsession.
Meet your chief book bestie
I’m Sarah! Yes hi hello!!!!
A book worm, wine enthusiast and your go-to gal for book recommendations. I started this space because I was looking for community and products that I couldn’t find.
As a reader I will pick up almost anything but love a contemporary fiction and intergeneralisation drama. There is no format preference - I float between audio, paperback and e-reader depending on the day.
Unfortunately for me, and fortunately for you, I don’t know where to draw the line or stop creating so here we are with an overflowing range of goodies that are fun, stylish and cool (well I think so anyway!)
Thank you to everyone who has continued to support BBD and everything we are doing here.
