My Story
My name is Mars Kearney (soon to be Mars Browne…) and I run the online bookstore you clicked on. I am a nonbinary in my late 20’s looking to share the love of reading with as many people as possible.
Ever since I was a kid, I would spend most of my time reading. I would read whatever was popular and fell in love with mystery and dystopian novels. I got the Hunger Games for one of my birthdays and I spent the entire day reading it. That started my addiction to reading. I would spend long nights with my insomnia and love for fictional characters. It wasn’t until I reached adulthood that I realized the crack that was hidden inside of romance fantasy books. I mean I always love romance but FANTASY? Serve it to me on a silver platter while holding a dagger to my throat.
My favourite book is Powerless by Lauren Roberts (that series is a blessing and Kai Azer isn’t half bad either)
I started this online bookstore as it was my dream from young to either become a famous musician or own my own bookstore (I get stage fright so this was the better option)
Now I am building a bookstore hoping to turn it into a safe space for the people who dedicate their time to this amazing art. Because reading is an art!
What’s the goal?
Each purchase brings me closer to proving that Swift Current deserves a bookstore but instead of jumping head first… I’ll dip my big toe into the water of entrepreneurship
-
Yes. I ask that you give me 1-2 days to fulfill an order but I have a pickup location found when you select the option as well as directions on the email confirmation you get.
-
I accept large donations of books so please email me if you are interested. I also go on a hunt or donate books from my own collection
-
Almost everything is sourced from either artists so of course I am open to sell books by local authors. Please reach out to me if interested.
