FAQ's

Do you accept returns or exchanges?

Because we are a small independent bookstore, we can only offer returns or exchanges on unopened, unused items within 14 days of purchase. Books must be in new condition, and Blind Date With a Book purchases are final (to keep the surprise intact!). If you ever have an issue or concern with an order, just reach out, we’re always happy to help.

How long will my order take to ship?

We have a very small team, so orders are typically processed and shipped within 5-7 business days. You’ll receive a confirmation email as soon as your package is on the way. If it's a rush, just email us to let us know and we will prioritize your order!

Local? You can select in-store pickup at Spare Time Books during checkout and grab your order the same day we process it!

Can I use a Bookshop Besties e-gift card in-store and online?

Yes! Our e-gift cards work both on our website and in-store at Spare Time Books. Just enter the gift card code at checkout (online) or show the email at the register (in person).
