Open book with a magnifying glass on a textured surface
Some books are not just books

They're family memory in hardcover. 

∙ The cookbook your grandmother used. 

∙ The childhood favorite you read until the spine gave out. 

∙ The book your dad kept on his workbench. 

I look for those copies, and I describe them carefully so you can decide whether this one is the right one.

Pam Fournier, owner of Reading Vintage
Meet Pam

I've been a reader since childhood. Long hospital stays made books my best company, and that bond never really left.

I've moved boxes of books from house to house most of my life. Reading Vintage grew out of that same attachment to physical books and what they carry.

I've been out hunting sales across Michigan for fifteen years, and I still choose every vintage book and story-rich collectible myself.

When I'm not at an estate sale, I'm probably walking in the woods with my dog or teaching water aerobics.
