About Us


Blithe Books Etymology
It was in reading Overstory that we first came across a word that we could use for our bookstore - “blight.” There was something jumpy about the word when used with “books.” Alliteration put to good use. Of course, it would have been the worst word to use in the dictionary, but its distant cousin (in spelling) was not - “blithe.”
Blithe
showing a casual and cheerful indifference considered to be callous or improper; happy or joyous (literary); related to the English word “bliss” (from Oxford languages)
So for all the readers who asked - We are called Blithe Books because, while it may seem illogical to open a bookstore as a purely passion project in the middle of a great pandemic, with a little daily encouragement and a healthy abuse of the word, blithe, we do our work with much cheerful indifference.
