They describe themselves as “an unapologetically activist, intersectional, feminist, antiracist, lgbtq+ community space.” The bookshop includes most genres, from politics, history, fiction and travel writing to Children’s books, crafts and cookery. Another very nice place that supports lgbtq+ community.
