Our Story

Starbound Pages began with a love for stories — the kind you read late into the night, with a cup of coffee growing cold beside you. Stories that linger long after the last page, that feel like quiet company during slow mornings and heavy days.

This shop was born during a season of unexpected change. After being laid off from my job, life suddenly slowed in a way I hadn’t planned for. What felt uncertain at first became an invitation — space to finally listen to a dream I had carried for years.

I imagined a bookstore built on intention. A place where books are chosen by hand, not by algorithm. Where reading is unhurried, coffee is always nearby, and stories are treated as something to savor. That vision became Starlit Books & Brew.

We are a Hispanic-led online bookstore inspired by cozy nights, thoughtful curation, and the belief that stories connect us — to ourselves, to culture, and to one another. Every book here is selected with care, meant to be lived with, underlined, and returned to when you need it most.

This online shop is only the beginning. Each order helps bring us closer to a future brick-and-mortar bookstore and café in Austin, Texas — a space filled with shelves of fantasy, romance, and horror, the comforting aroma of coffee and tea, and a community of readers who love to linger.

Thank you for being part of this chapter.

Our next one is brewing.
