Bookstore Romance Day Book Swap

Celebrate Bookstore Romance Day with Harvard Book Store and The Amora Experience!

From 11am-1pm we welcome all friends, couples, and partners to stop in, browse the shelves, and purchase a book or books for each other in secret. Then, reunite and reveal each other's book picks, and share why you chose that book for them.

Participants will receive a coupon at check-in for 15% off their purchase, valid on 8/15/26 only from the hours of 11am-1pm.

There will also be photo opportunities, reflection bookmarks, and the chance to make your book selection a Blind Date with a Book, where you can wrap the book and write clues on the wrapping of what the book is, so your partner or friend can guess. This is open to the public, but we ask that you please RSVP for free below, so we know how many people to expect.

What is Bookstore Romance Day?

Bookstore Romance Day is a day designed to give independent bookstores an opportunity to celebrate Romance fiction—its books, readers, and writers—and to strengthen the relationships between bookstores and the Romance community. Learn more at bookstoreromanceday.org.
