Our Story

BookNerdFam started as a virtual book club during the pandemic. We saw a need for community and connection, and our online book clubs quickly grew in popularity. Our founder, Deondra Smith, has a background as an English/Language Arts teacher, and she is passionate about making reading accessible to all.

Our online book clubs were so successful that we decided to expand our reach by creating an online bookstore and launching a book mobile. We are committed to providing a welcoming and inclusive space for all readers.

Our Values

We are committed to promoting diversity and inclusion in the literary world. We believe that everyone’s voice matters, and we strive to feature books by authors of all backgrounds and experiences.
