Chapter Two Community Bookshop | Chesham - Chesham

I had the pleasure of discovering the Chapter Two Community Book Shop during my recent visit to town, and I must say, it left quite an impression on me.

This charming little shop exudes a unique and inviting ambiance. The way the books are displayed and categorized is not only visually pleasing but also incredibly functional. It's a haven for book lovers like myself, as it makes finding the perfect read a breeze.

But Chapter Two isn't just about books; it's a treasure trove of surprises. They offer a delightful selection of wildflower seeds and greeting cards, making it a one-stop shop for thoughtful gifts and little eco-friendly touches.

What makes this place even more special is its charitable aspect. It warms my heart to know that it's a charity book shop, contributing to a greater cause. Supporting such initiatives while indulging in my love for books is truly satisfying.

I was also thrilled to hear that Chapter Two hosts regular events. Although my visit marked my first experience, I can't wait to return for one of their upcoming gatherings, which I'm sure will add an extra layer of community spirit to the shop.

My visit resulted in a lovely purchase—a book on birds for my daughter. It's these little finds and the warm, friendly atmosphere that make Chapter Two a place I'd highly recommend to fellow book enthusiasts and anyone looking for a unique and heartwarming shopping experience.

What a gem of a bookshop. I think the best charity shop I’ve been in. It has such a warm and charming atmosphere. You can tell that the team take great pride in what they do. A great selection of books. I especially liked that they had a Folio section with an interesting array of special edition hardback books. My only negative is that I wish I lived nearby so that I could visit more regularly! I will be back though.

This is a wonderful establishment. Service was excellent and the money you spend here goes back into the community. I was able to find a really obscure copy of a book I have been searching for, for a while. The book was in decent condition suitable for reading as opposed to fine collecting. They had non Dune Frank Herbert! They have a Abe books site which had accurate descriptions. They ship with Ecco friendly shipping materials. I would visit this shop if I was here in person, to see what other unexpected titles they may have in store.

One of if not the best bookshop I’ve ever been to, you’d think you had walked in to a Waterstones competitor until you realise it’s actually a charity bookshop!!

Absolute joy to visit, the staff could not be friendlier and love to chat about the books you are buying.

You’d think for such a high end seeming charity shop that the books would be extremely expensive, but no, prices are extremely fair and the variety of books on offer is absolutely breathtaking.

You could quite easily spend hours in here trawling through their beautiful presented selection.

Even the name of the shop is perfect and is an ode to a bookshop called Chapter 1 on Chesham high street which I believe Chapter 2 now occupies the space of.

Fantastic charity bookshop, serving a great cause but unlike many jumble-sale style charity shops it creates a wonderful cosy space, with themed sections, and well thought out initiatives beyond the books. Staff always cheerful when receiving donations, and when shopping. Especially like the spec fic and other window displays. Some unusual books, and fair pricing.
