Our Story
Bookety Book Books is a literary website dedicated to the love of reading.
We curate and recommend the books we think deserve a place on your radar, publish reviews and reading lists, interview authors, and explore the conversations shaping the literary world. From new releases and hidden gems to industry news, opinion pieces, and reading culture, our goal is to help readers stay connected to the world of books.
At the heart of everything we do is a belief that reading should be enjoyable, accessible, and free from intimidation. We are passionate about breaking down barriers to reading by talking about books in a way that welcomes all kinds of readers, whether you’re reading a book a week or picking up your first novel in years. Whether you exclusively read romance, historical fiction, fantasy, literary fiction, or a little bit of everything, none of that matters here. If you love reading, this space is for you.
We also believe that reading is about more than just books. It is about connection, curiosity, empathy, and community. Through our content and online spaces, we aim to foster vibrant reading communities where people can share recommendations, discuss ideas, and celebrate the joy of reading together.
Because while reading is often a solitary activity, readers thrive in community. The conversations we have online inspire real-world reading habits, book clubs, friendships, and connections, helping more people discover the transformative power of books.
The website is run by Mandy Myles, former bookseller and founder of the online bookstore Bookety Book Books. After years spent recommending books, building reading communities, and championing literacy through the store, this website emerged as
a natural evolution of the conversations, content, and reader connections that had already grown around the Bookety community.
