About Us

Our History

With Book was founded 25 years ago by my father, Ogawa Tsubasa. He grew up visiting small bookshops and always felt welcome in those warm and quiet spaces. That childhood feeling inspired him to open a store where everyone could feel at home.

Tsubasa wanted With Book to be more than just a place to buy books. His goal was to create a community space where people could talk, share, and enjoy reading together.

Our Mission

Today, With Book continues that tradition. We host monthly events and meet-ups so readers of all ages can connect with each other. Our hope is that every person who visits feels comfortable, welcome, and inspired.

Who We Are Today

The store is now managed by Koki, who continues the same values and ideas. Tsubasa still supports the shop and helps create events for the community.
