Lost in Books (Fairfield, NSW)
Lost in Books is a multilingual independent bookshop for kids, café, safe space for women, creative learning centre, and language exchange hub right in Western Sydney! Eshayz. I’m Western Sydney ethnic woman through and through, and while it’s unfortunate that we don’t have many independent bookshops to support our reading ways through COVID-19, I'm still very excited to buy a counting in Sāmoan book called Tasi, lua, tolu, fa! by Jahri Jah Jah. My niece is a Tongan-Samoan-Australian and so having a place like Lost in Books in Western Sydney means I’m able to keep my niece attached to the part of her culture I don’t have a connection to or nuanced understanding of.
