  • Thank you for your feedback Robyn, this is very helpful.

    Language tags are now included in the product page for all non-English books, and improvements to the search function will be implemented in 2026. As for French comics, we work from donated books and there is a cultural preference for hard-back “Bandes-Dessinées” amongst our French donors: we accept comics in any format!

  • I discovered your website a few day ago, and I’m so glad!
    I’m French and I struggled to find some French books.
    You made my journey in Australia with your fabulous website! 🤩
    I will recommend your website to my friends.

    Thank you once again!

  • I ordered quite a few books and they all arrived in great condition. The hand-written message in the mail convinced me that I should send my regards, so that’s what I’m doing here. This store is doing what it promises, and they’re doing it well.
    Some potential points of improvement: While it’s usually clear what books are in what language by descriptions, it wouldn’t hurt to include a simple tag that just says what language the book you’re about to purchase is in. The search function on the website could also be improved quite a bit. I’m sure the company have their reasons, but there are a lot of great soft-cover comics so it’s a bit disappointing that they only accept hard-cover for now.

    Anyway; genuinely a good experience and I look forward to shopping here in the future for my French literature.
