Hello there, fellow book enthusiasts! I’m Pam, the passionate curator behind Reading Vintage, an online treasure trove of unique and quality vintage books. My love for classic literature sparked the creation of an online bookstore and a thriving community for avid readers, collectors, and book lovers.
My Journey
My adventure began in late 2015 on Etsy, and by the summer of 2018, I launched Reading Vintage. Through trials and triumphs, hours of dedicated work, and the support of an amazing co-working group, Reading Vintage has grown into a space where vintage literature enthusiasts can connect and share their passion.
“Reading Vintage is an absolute delight! The website is easy to navigate, the selection is vast and unique, and the quality of the books is excellent.”
Hunting for Vintage Treasures
One of my favorite aspects of my work is the hunt. I scour kitchens at estate sales for cookbooks and recipe collections. I dive into bookshelves in libraries, bedrooms, and basements of houses, finding exciting books to add to our collections. Each book has a story, and I’m here to share those stories with you.
“What a wonderful selection of books! You can tell each one has been chosen with care.”
Blogging at Vintage Book Lovers
As I grew Reading Vintage, I realized the need to share my knowledge, experiences, and the joy of vintage literature with a broader audience. Thus, Vintage Book Lovers, my blog, was born. Here I share:
- Tips on book care
- Spotlights on iconic authors
- Insights into starting and leading a book club
- Aspects of book collecting
- Reflections on the timeless power of vintage literature
- Guidelines on reading and discussing vintage books
- Advise on decluttering and donating old books
“I’m so grateful for the valuable insights Pam shares on her blog. It’s truly a haven for vintage book lovers.
Expanding Our Offerings: Bookish Digital Downloads
In response to your needs, I expanded our offerings by creating the Bookish Digital Downloads collection. These resources are designed to help you organize and manage your reading life, enhancing your experience with vintage books. We offer Ultimate Book Collection Organization Checklists, book club resources, reading planners, and book club planners.
“The digital downloads have been a game-changer for organizing my book collection.”
An Ever-Evolving Journey
Reading Vintage and Vintage Book Lovers continues to evolve as I delve deeper into the world of vintage books. There’s always another book to discover, another story to share, and more knowledge to pass on to fellow vintage book lovers. I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us.
“Reading Vintage keeps getting better. I can’t wait to see what’s next!”
With a book in one hand and a steaming cup of tea in the other, I welcome you to join our community. Happy Reading!
