frequently asked questions
What products do you carry?
We carry pre-loved and new books! We strive to ensure our used books are only what we consider "Excellent" or better quality!
Additionally, we also carry a variety of bookish goods that go well with our novels! This includes anything from stickers, pins, bookmarks, and more!
Lastly, we also carry Blind Books & Blind Book Bundles for those wanting a little mystery in their lives!
Can you order me a book?
Sort've! Lorebound is affiliated with Bookshop.org, Libro.fm, and Rakuten Kobo! These are three brilliant resources to utilize if you'd still like to support LB but want something we don't have on hand!
You said you're pet-friendly?
We are! LB functions out of the Owner's household, and while we are a smoke-free home, we are pet friendly! While our resident dog and cat are not allowed in our workspace, we cannot guarantee that their hair doesn't somehow find its way into every hidden crevice we can't see!
Why do you only carry certain genres?
Well, truth be told, it's cause they're what we like to talk about! When working at their local Barnes & Noble, the Owner focused primarily on the speculative fiction sections! It's what they read most of the time and it's what they know the most about!
While being a general bookstore would reach a broader audience, we're much more inclined to focus our efforts on what we know we're good at instead.
Where can I find you?
You can find LB at vendor and pop-up events primarily in the Cincinnati and Columbus, OH areas! Any events we attend will be posted and documented on our social media platforms!
Can I suggest a book to carry?
Sure! While we cannot guarantee the book will be added to our shelves, we are always more than happy to accept suggestions of titles that might be otherwise popular!
What's your shipping policy?
Glad you asked! We try to ship any orders out as soon as receive the notification, but life can have delays! In general, we aim for 3-5 business days to have your item packaged up and off to the mail carrier!
