what fits

a hardcover, a kindle and everything else.

Four pockets, each with a job, so your book travels flat and your cards ride up front. It sits close to your body and the strap adjusts from 27 to 46 inches.

Main compartment

Two pockets. Fits a standard hardcover, with "read more books" printed inside.

Front zip pocket

Card slots inside, so your ID and cards come along without a wallet.

Hidden back pocket

A zip pocket against your body for your phone and keys.

Bottle holder

Collapsible, so it tucks away when you leave the bottle at home.

8" wide, 10" tall, 3.7" deep. Structured nylon that keeps its shape. Strap drop 27" at the shortest, 46" fully extended.

The Bookish Crossbody open, with a hardcover and a Kindle inside the main compartment
your free gift

the pouch that keeps your book safe in any bag.

Buttery quilted nylon, a monochrome metal zipper and a "read more books" patch inside. At 11 by 7.5 inches it takes a Kindle, a smaller paperback or your go-to essentials, and it lives in your crossbody today and your tote tomorrow.

"It's perfect for protecting my book when I toss it into my tote bag for travel. Highly recommend!"

OBSESSED

"This bag is phenomenal. It's been incredible to be able to just keep a book on me while running errands/doing things with the kids while also getting the functionality of a crossbody bag (which is what I use for my wallet/keys). 10/10 recommend."

Hanna

A perfect bag for anyone!

"I'm happy to say this bag is even better than advertised! It's sturdy, well-made, so incredibly functional, and a perfect choice for anyone who likes to bring a book everywhere - even a hardback! The "bookish" strap and "read more books" embroidery are special details."

Favorite bag for my kindle

"I scoured the internet for recommendations for bags that fit kindles. I tried some other bags but my wallet is a decent size and this bookish crossbody actually fits all my stuff without feeling like a massive bag. It fits the smaller kindle and the paperwhite size."

Emily
5 stars
So many features

"This bag has so many features. Room for license and credit cards eliminates the need for a purse. There is space for a Kindle and a physical book. The water bottle holder is convenient and I love the way it can be hidden away when not in use."

Kathy
5 stars
Exactly what I wanted

"Able to fit book, kindle and normal purse items. I love that it's flat against my body as well. Very comfortable and adjusts easy to fit. The pockets both inside and outside are secure, accessible and just where I'd want them. The perfect bookish bag."

Tori
5 stars
Great bag!

"The book space is amazing and plenty big enough for any book or a few smaller ones. My current book is nearly 700 pages and there was still room to spare for other things. I love the zip and card pockets too. Highly recommend!"

good to know

questions readers ask.

Does a hardcover really fit?
Yes. The main compartment is sized for a standard hardcover, and readers report fitting a 700-page novel with room to spare. An oversized or extra-thick edition can make the zipper snug.
Which Kindle fits where?
The main compartment takes a Kindle, a Paperwhite or a Kindle in a case next to a book. The front zip pocket suits a basic Kindle or a Paperwhite without a bulky case.
How do I get the pouch free?
Pick your colours and tap the button. Both items go into your cart and code BOOKISHGIFT is applied on the way to checkout, so the pouch shows at $0. One free pouch per order.
Is the crossbody discounted?
No. The crossbody is its everyday price. The value is the $16.79 pouch, added on top.
When will it ship?
Bags are ready to ship. Standard shipping is through USPS and UPS and typically takes 2 to 3 business days after processing.
What if something is wrong with my order?
Items are made to order, so The Bookish Goods does not offer returns or exchanges. If your order arrives damaged or incorrect, email hello@thebookishgoods.com with your order number and it is made right.
Can I get more than one set?
Each order includes one free pouch with one crossbody. For a second set, place a second order.
