Small and independent, with a great selection of books, Love Books is your one-stop bookshop for discerning book lovers and situated in the popular Bamboo Centre in Melville, Joburg.

Catering for adults and children, the books have been carefully selected and the shop is a comfortable, imaginative and great place to spend some time browsing for a book.

Started by Jaci Jenkins (co-owner of Tinsel) and Kate Rogan (who produced the book show for Jenny Crwys-Williams at Talk Radio 702 for many years), Love Books is a creative space dedicated to book lovers.

Beautiful illustrations by The Motel adorn the walls, comfortable chairs and fabulous coffee from the ever popular Service Station restaurant make this bookshop a wonderful place to visit.

For wine lovers Love Books also serves Joostenburg wines - fresh off Kate’s family wine estate. There is wireless access for adults and magical storytelling sessions for kids every Saturday at 10am. If you are looking for a particular book not in store, Love Books will get and deliver the book within 20kms of the shop. A perfect place to while away a cold wintry Joburg day, hold a book launch or host a dinner!
