Enamoured Books has invited book lovers to its vibrant Bookshop Day celebration on Saturday, the 11th of October.
As this special day marks the 10th anniversary of Bookshop Day in New Zealand , it promises to be a celebration of storytelling, community, and the magic of independent bookshops.
“Bookshop Day is our heartfelt invitation to celebrate stories, serendipity, and community under one roof,” said Ruby Wallace, Owner, Enamoured Books..
“It’s not just a day to shop; it’s a day to connect, to delight in surprises, in sips of tea, in art, in words. We want to celebrate a decade of Bookshop Day and literary celebration.

Flash Sale Tattoo Pop-Up with Alex Heart & Kitty Stabler – Experience world-class tattoo artistry featuring two incredible artists:
- Alex Heart – With over 12 years of professional tattooing experience, Alex is the owner of The Fox’s Mark in the North Shore. Passionate about romance, fantasy, books, anime, and film, Alex brings stories to life through tattoo art. Her styles range from vibrant colour to black-and-grey, and she works closely with clients to ensure their tattoo aligns perfectly with their vision.
- Kitty Stabler – With nine years of experience and co-owner of Styx and Stones Tattoo in Ōrewa, Kitty’s artistry shines in versatility and creativity. Outside of tattooing, she enjoys video games, painting, and exploring science fiction, high fantasy, and manga. Her tattooing style is expressive and diverse, specialising in fine-line, traditional, and illustrative work—both in colour and black and grey.
Bonus: The very first customer in line will receive a free flash sale tattoo of their choice (up to the value of NZD 250)
Important to know: Each flash design will only be tattooed once, making every piece truly one-of-a-kind. If you’ve spotted a design you love, be sure to arrive early; once it’s gone, it’s gone!
