Welcome to Eva’s Used Books, where a love of literature meets humor, fun, and a little bit of bookish chaos! I’m Eva, originally from New Jersey, and I’m thrilled to share my passion for books and the joys (and challenges) of running an online bookstore with you.

The story behind Eva’s Used Books began when I first arrived in Israel with a suitcase full of dreams—and plenty of books. Over time, my collection grew, filling shelves and eventually forming towering stacks of literary treasures. One day, surrounded by piles of beloved books, inspiration struck: why not share these amazing finds with fellow book lovers?

And so, Eva's Used Books was born, a virtual sanctuary for bookworms and literary explorers. But this is no ordinary bookstore. Here, you'll find not only an extensive collection of books but also a touch of whimsy, laughter, and a few bookish misadventures.

Let me introduce you to some of my muses on owning a bookstore:

1. The Unexpected Treasures: When diving into the world of used books, I never know what delightful surprises await. Between the pages, I might stumble upon forgotten photos, airline tickets, old birthday cards, amusing to-do lists, or even beautifully crafted bookmarks. These unexpected treasures bring a touch of magic to each book and remind us of the unique stories they hold, both within their pages and beyond.

2. Conversations with Books: Yes, I confess, I talk to my books. I whisper sweet promises to them, assuring them that they'll find a loving new home where they'll be cherished and admired. There's something strangely comforting in sharing a few words with a book, as if acknowledging the bond between reader and story.

3. The Battle of Gravity: As a proud owner of a mountainous book collection, I've had my fair share of encounters with gravity's mischievous ways. Books seem to have a peculiar talent for falling at the most inconvenient times, landing squarely on my unsuspecting toes. It's a dance of slight annoyance followed by a momentary glimpse into the mischievous nature of the bookish realm. But even with the occasional toe-tapping mishaps, I wouldn't trade my ever-growing collection for anything else.

4. The Gifts of Friends: Owning a bookstore is not just about books; it's about the beautiful connections and friendships that bloom along the way. I'm grateful for the friends who generously contribute to my collection, sharing their own beloved books to find new homes. These acts of kindness remind me that the love of books knows no boundaries and that we're all part of a larger community of bookworms, bound together by our shared passion for stories.

So, welcome to Eva's Used Books, a place where laughter, adventure, and literary treasures await. Explore our virtual shelves, immerse yourself in captivating tales, and join me on this whimsical journey of books and all the delightful chaos they bring. Together, let's celebrate the joy of reading, one page at a time!

And remember, in the words of William Shakespeare, "Though she be but little, she is fierce!" Just like a book, each page brims with endless possibilities and the power to transport us to extraordinary realms. Embrace the magic of books, and let Eva's Used Books be your portal to countless adventures.

Happy reading, my fellow bookworms!

Warmest regards,

Eva
