Sappho Books is Sydney’s most loved general secondhand bookshop. We have over 30,000 titles available in a huge range of categories. Many out of print and ‘hard to find’ books can be found at Sappho.
We are housed in a highly individual, rambling multi-storey building from around 1880 packed with bookshelves for you to browse.
Struggling to find the perfect present? We also offer gift certificates! You can buy one in store or online here and we’ll email or post it out to you or the recipient.
