who we are
We’re proud to be the first-of-its-kind social impact bookstore — a space where stories do more than entertain. Founded by Dr. Ellie, our bookstore was created to spark inspiration, learning, and connection through a curated collection of books that celebrate local voices, diverse cultures, and global perspectives.
Beyond the shelves, we build meaningful partnerships that open doors for others — uplifting individuals, equipping future generations, and strengthening communities one book, one scoop, and one connection at a time.

The shop associate was sweet and gave everyone large scoops. The ice cream was delicious and reasonably priced. I will definitely go back. The bathroom was clean too.
