About us

Welcome to Book Stop, a cozy haven for book lovers nestled in the heart of Lisbon.

Founded by Joana de Oliveira Carvalho, a passionate reader in her thirties, our bookstore reflects her lifelong love for literature and the written word.

At Book Stop, we believe that books have the power to transport us to new worlds, inspire us, and connect us with others. Our carefully curated selection features a diverse range of genres, from timeless classics to contemporary bestsellers, as well as hidden gems waiting to be discovered. Whether you’re searching for a gripping novel, a thought-provoking non-fiction title, or a beautifully illustrated children’s book, we have something for everyone.

As a woman-owned business, we are committed to supporting local authors and promoting diverse voices in literature. We regularly host events, including book signings, readings, and community gatherings, to celebrate the vibrant literary culture of Lisbon and connect with fellow book enthusiasts.
