Basically the shop aims to remove unwanted books in order to promote reading for all ages. There are hundreds and hundreds of books of all genres.
Adults are allowed three books per visit and children seven. You don't have to pay anything the only requirement that they have is to allow any of the volunteers to stamp it with the charity logo.
The shop is divided into different sections and you can easily spend hours looking through the shelves. It also worth browsing the shop windows before going in as they ofter have the newest donations on display.

The children's sections has a plethora of picture 📚 books and bedtimes stories. Also there is a teen section as well that I have a few youngsters looking over the offerings.

You can donate any books you like.they do not collect so you have to take them to the Galeria. If you can't carry them in to the shop yourself they do come and collect them from your 🚗 car.

Love this place. Such an innovative idea and a very determined group of people that have brought it to life. It is a registered charity
no:1167923 and even though they give the books free they do accept donations.

As a volunteer, I can say the staff here are wonderful and friendly. They do such a great job running this place for a fantastic cause. You can take up to 3 books for free and even donate a few of your old books. Working here is so much fun and got me reading more books. I would always recommend this place. 6/5

Lots of books, all organised by genre and they’re free! It’s also a great place to bring your unwanted books and make sure they get passed on to find a good home. The staff are super friendly and helpful as well!

They accept the books you have read, and allow people to take them away for free. A great idea, which gives books a new lease of life, including those which might not appear new enough for some charity shops. Here they will find new readers rather than being sent for pulping. A relaxed environment for browsing, which people are welcome to treat as a lending library.

Very good initiative to save books and promote reading by allowing to take books for free and return them or another book so that others can take them for free. Even though the books are passed down, all are in good quality.
Very well organized shop with different sections according to the type of book. The staffs are also very friendly and helpful in selecting books.
