About Us

At Thyme & Tome, books, reading, writing, and baking have been life-long loves. 

Literally.

Kim has been reading, writing, and baking for as long as she can remember, and does not discriminate when it comes to book genre. Ben loves fantasy, like Lord of the Rings and Sword of Truth. Their children read across all genres, including fantasy, Greek mythology, and graphic novels. Thus, naturally, as a family of readers, writers, and bakers, owning and operating a bookshop bakery was the last step to realizing a thirty year old dream. 

But Thyme & Tome is more than just books and baked goods. It's an experience. It's browsing and perusing and smelling and touching at your own pace. It's stepping into someplace calm and feeling utter bliss. It's indulging in your favorite treats while your fingertips graze the spines of some of your most beloved titles. Thyme & Tome is also a community. It's book discussions and squealing when you get your hands on that much-anticipated new release. It's where gatherings occur and special events take place. It's magic and friendships and simple enjoyment.

At least, that's the vision. While Thyme & Tome does not have a physical store front yet, it's very much the dream for the near future. You're welcome to come along on the journey. It's going to be spectacular. 

Thank you for supporting your woman-owned, veteran-supported indie bookshop!
