You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
C.S. Lewis
Coming Soon!
We're Getting a Brand New Name!
Hello valued customers,
We have some exciting news: Kent Books is officially rebranding and will soon be known as The Used Book Emporium.
For those who have been with us since the beginning, you know the original name was a nod to my old home in Kent. While that history is important, as our online shop has grown, we feel the name should better reflect the variety and richness of the books we source from everywhere.
Rest assured, while our name and look are changing, our commitment to you remains absolutely rock-solid. You can continue to expect the same exceptional customer service, lightning-fast delivery, and—most importantly—a fantastic, ever-growing selection of quality second-hand books across all genres and price points.
We will update you with a launch date nearer the time.
Thank you for being part of our story. We can’t wait to welcome you to The Used Book Emporium!
