DISCOVER OUR Secret Shelf Collection

A collection of colorful bookmarks and decorative paper clips labeled 'MY BOOKSHELF'.

Sometimes Our Favourite Book Find Us

Wrapped Reads are created for those moments when choosing the perfect book feels overwhelming—or when the right story seems meant to arrive on its own. Each selection is guided by intuition, care, and an understanding that stories often meet us exactly where we are. Whether gifted to someone special or chosen for yourself, a Secret Shelf Wrapped Read is an invitation to slow down, feel the pages, and discover a story that just might stay with you.

Books stacked with decorative coffee mugs and green plants.

Renowned Writers and Amazing Stories

Every Wrapped Read begins with a story worth telling. These are quality novels by renowned authors, offered in hardcover and softcover, and carefully evaluated so condition is always transparent and fairly priced. Some have been cherished before, others are like new—but all are chosen because the story inside is what truly matters.

Purple-themed stationery with books, flowers, butterfly, and clips.

More Than the Gift of a Novel

Each Wrapped Read includes thoughtfully chosen add-in items tucked into the folds—little extras designed to enhance the reading experience or add a touch of self-care. From page markers, sticky notes, pens, and bookmarks to small lifestyle treats like keychains, beauty masks, nail polish, or silk scrunchies, every inclusion is selected with intention. It’s not just a book—it’s a curated experience.

Discover the Magic of THE SECRET SHELF Collection

The Secret Shelf Collection by The Crafty Hearts provides curated "blind date with a book" experiences known as Wrapped Reads.

We source highly-rated, well-known books in new or like-new condition and creatively wrap them.

To increase the personality factor of the gift, we tuck contextually relevant items into the external folds of the packaging, such as tea bags, paper book trackers, paper book marks annotation tabs, keychains, macrame bookmarks and bag charms, Mr. Pen branded retractable gel pens and highlighters, custom-shaped paper and alligator clips, and reusable waterproof vinyl stickers.
