BOOK SALE 3-for-2 all weekend Fri-Sun

UPPSALA & STOCKHOLM | Fri 1 March–Sun 3 March

BOOK SALE 3-for-2 on everything! All weekend Fri 1 March – Sun 3rd March!

We’re celebrating the joy of reading (and well-filled bookshelves) with a great sale this weekend: not just on selected titles, but on everything in our shops in Uppsala and Stockholm.

3 for 2 on everything in the shops. Or pick 6 for 4. Grab 9 and pay for 6... You get the idea

In our Uppsala shop you can shop til you drop on Friday, and then enjoy a concert with Ryan O’Reilly! And at the Stockholm shop we have Storytime for Children on Saturday at 11 (parents, why not stock up on new children’s books while you’re here?)

You ❤️ books.
We ❤️ books.
WE ❤️ YOU.
Thanks for making our bookshops the book lover’s paradise!
