About us

Love & Simplicity Book Boxes was born from a moment of pure magic. In 2016, I was welcomed into the home of a warm and gentle couple in the south of France—Elaine and Tony—who showed me the beauty of slowing down, embracing love, and savouring life’s simplest pleasures. That experience planted a seed that would quietly grow for years.

In 2023, while visiting family in Canada, that seed became something real. Together—my brother, cousin, sister-in-law and I—dreamed up a way to stay connected across continents: four thoughtfully curated book boxes a year (because yes, postage is expensive!), each built around a theme. A book. A snack. A beverage. A gift. Simple, heartfelt, meaningful.

This is the soul of Love & Simplicity Book Boxes: creating small moments of joy that connect communities and celebrate the journeys we share, all through the love of a good story.

Our passion has linked family across three countries and now extends to you. Every product in our boxes is sourced from Australian small businesses, because supporting one another is at the heart of everything we do. We believe in community, in generosity, in the magic of gift-giving and the comfort of curling up with a beautiful book.

Thank you—for encouraging, supporting, and walking alongside us on this journey of love, simplicity, and connection. We’re so glad you’re here.
