Hello,

My name is Sabrina and I’m the founder of “Of Books and Love”.

I’ve always loved bookshops — but for a long time, I never found the perfect one.

That changed during a trip to New York City, when I visited a romance-focused bookstore. From the moment I walked in, it felt like my happy place. I knew I had to bring that experience back home and create my own version here in London.

During the pandemic, I launched a bookstagram account and connected with an incredible community of readers. I quickly realised that romance readers aren’t just readers — they’re a passionate, supportive community.

“Of Books and Love” was created as a love letter to the community. A place where you can truly be yourself, and feel safe surrounded by people sharing the same passion.

A few Fun Facts about me:

• I’m a total mood reader — I pick books based on vibes, always.

• Theodore Laurence from Little Women is my absolute book boyfriend.

• My favourite romance tropes are Childhood Best Friends to Lovers and Fake Dating.

• My celebrity Crush is Pedro Pascal (and you can actually spot him at the bookstore)
