Beyond the Covers is Live! Our Online Store is Open for Business

The wait is over—Beyond the Covers is officially live! We’re thrilled to open our virtual doors and invite you to explore our carefully curated selection of books, gifts, and book-lover essentials.

What You’ll Find in Our Store:

• Blind Date with a Book – A fun, surprise book experience with something for every type of reader.

• Shelf Worthy Subscription Box – A monthly book box that highlights incredible authors and products from values-aligned businesses.

• Book-Lover Goods – Apparel, home goods, journals, and accessories inspired by the joy of reading.

Why We’re Here
Beyond the Covers is more than just a bookstore—we’re a social enterprise with a mission to do good through books. While we work toward our long-term goal of providing opportunities for foster youth, we’re starting by partnering with as many socially conscious businesses as possible and giving back through monthly donations. Each month, a portion of our proceeds will go to a nonprofit aligned with that month’s Shelf Worthy box theme, ensuring that every purchase makes an impact.

Join Our Fundraising Effort!
We’re also raising funds to bring Beyond the Covers to life as a brick-and-mortar bookstore and café! After years in the tech industry, I’m taking a leap to follow my heart and create a space that provides mentorship and opportunities for foster youth. Our crowdfunding campaign has already helped us raise $4,000, funding my participation in an intensive bookstore and café training program this March. Now, we’re setting our sights higher—our updated goal of $8,000 will help us expand our online store, participate in pop-ups, and build brand awareness. Every contribution helps lay the foundation for this mission.
