Bookends Exterior

Two-stories of cozy indie bookstore meets community event space are tucked into the village of Florence (part of Northampton).

In their words, “Proudly run by mean lesbian communists since 2022,” the shop focuses on lesbian history and culture with an aim to create space for underrepresented writers and performers, and building an intergenerational community.

Inside is a curated mix of new and used books, music, and merch. With a busy events calendar, the shop serves as a hub for its community and travellers alike.
