Why Between Us Readers?

Real Curation, Not Algorithms

Every book chosen by an actual reader (hi, I'm Emily) who considers your mood, your history, and how you want to feel.

Sustainably Sourced

We hold a small selection of new books and the rest are second-hand sourced from local charity shops and other readers in the UK. Books will be in good or excellent condition. We at Between Us Readers firmly believe that books deserve more than on-reader and your shelves deserve books with history.

Personal, Every Time

Every order is matched to your reader profile. No two deliveries are the same because no two readers are the same.

Quality Guaranteed

All books 3.5+ rated on Goodreads. Good or Excellent condition. Standalones and series - but never mid-series books without context.

Flexible, Not Forced

Pause or switch Tracks any time by email. Delivery options on a monthly, every two month, or every three months basis.
