Our mission is to help independent bookstores thrive
Bookshop.org puts this mission and the public good above financial interests, giving over 80% of our profit margin to independent bookstores. In total, we support over 1900+ stores.
Every year we aggregate selective lists from all over - critics, retailers, libraries, major awards, trade magazines, readers, and more - to put together the definitive consensus list of the year's very best books.
