ABOUT US

Do you truly have a passion for books? Not just reading them, but enjoying the feel of the cover, the weight of it in your hands, how the pages smell when you thumb through the chapters, and drinking in the artwork with your eyes? If you feel this way when you dive into a book, then you have come to the right place, because so do we….

Spicy Pepper Books procures out-of-print, independently published, works of fiction. Our workshop carefully packages each order so the book you purchase arrives on time and in perfect condition. When you shop with us, everything comes from our shop. Nothing is drop shipped or sent from other locations.

We are very proud of the sprayed edge books offered at our shop. Each book is meticulously protected with acid-free paper, no adhesives, and gently prepared to enter the book press. The presses we use exert 5,000 psi of evenly distributed pressure on the book, which prevents bleeding and aids in a consistently smooth edge. The edged colors are selected to highlight the artwork on each cover, and you may also special-order colors. Our “edge-craft” is guaranteed to last for the lifetime of the book we send to you.

Before our world became so busy, a person’s wealth and character would be measured by the books displayed in their den. We hope to help bring the awe and reverence for books into our time. This is joyous work for us! And we hope you find the right book here and share in the wonder! We would be honored to see one of our books prominently displayed on your shelf.
