About us

Hi, We are Wayne and Marie Abraham

It is our dream to bring the love of books back to life and into your homes too!

I have always had a great love for books and reading, so when the opportunity came along to own a bookstore we jumped at it.

However,  the idea of an online bookstore did not start immediately though; we started off small by selling books to our friends and family, at flea markets and the yearly Christmas markets in and around Cape Town. It was not long before we started to receive interest from outside Cape Town and the Bucket of Books online store was born.

 We recently now opened a shop in Parklands, Cape Town to allow our customers to browse our Books, Puzzles and Stationery.

With thousands books on hand, we offer a wide selection of books across all genres, including books for our ever curious children too.

The majority of our books are pre-loved, however we only stock books that are of a good enough quality to be able to resell them to you.

We look forward to igniting your love for reading and books through the Bucket of Books website.

Happy Reading,

Marié
