We stock books by Avon, Dorchester, Ballantine, Kensington, Daw Books, St Martins Press, and many more. We stock many independent publishers, such as ImaJinn Books, Ellora's Cave and Red Sage Publishing's Secrets volumes.We pride ourselves on keeping a diverse and exciting range of books written by women for women on our shelves, and we welcome inquiries about new authors and titles.

Our shop can be found upstairs via the rear stairs or  lift in the Blocksidge & Ferguson Arcade opposite the old David Jones Adelaide Street entrance. - Just down from Queens Plaza - There are many bus stops on Adelaide Street, so parking options are limited.

Lay-By - We do not have a Lay-By service. We are happy to reserve titles in our storage area, or order in a book when the timing meets a customer's schedule. We understand that books are hard to accommodate in a person's budget so we are happy to be flexible.

Returns Policy - Choose your books carefully, we prefer not make exchanges. Many titles are reissued with new covers which can make double-ups possible. If there is a title which you aren't sure if you have already, we can check with our customer profile that tracks your purchases so we'll know if you have already purchased it here. Or we can reserve the title until you have checked your personal collection. We allow exchanges for duplicate books at our discretion upon presentation of receipt: we do not refund the purchase price or issue a credit - we exchange only.

Book Sizes - Here is a photo of the size of our books to better display the difference in our terms. On the left hand side are Hardcovers, next to them are our Tradesize paperbacks which are slightly smaller, and not as expensive as Hardcovers, with the Small paperbacks on the right hand side. These terms we will use throughout the site.
