    the gentle reader membership is HKD 65/month. for a little more than the price of a coffee each month, you can: 

    • 📖⁠ enjoy member discounts on books ($40 paperback, $60 hardcover);
    • 🗞️ receive our monthly substack newsletter;
    • 🔐 unlock early access to events (sip-and-reads, socials, dinners);
    • 💌 support gentle's operations and ability to give back through the sorting and redistribution of books, community events and running the shop.

    we're so grateful that you're here to join us on our journey to build a modern secondhand bookshop and third space. becoming a member helps gentle books move towards a more sustainable operating model, enables us deliver more events to a greater audience, rescue more books from landfill, and support our charity partners more meaningfully.

    ⁠the first 50 members to sign up will receive a limited edition tote and be recognised as founding supporters (plus our deep gratitude and thanks!).
