Welcome, Lovers
Welcome, Lovers

The Hopeful Romantic is a brand new

disabled, queer, woman-owned independent online & pop-up romance bookstore based in the Finger Lakes Region of New York. Established in 2025.​

More than just a bookstore:

Hannah, our Head Romantic, is an artist and

a certified hobby hopper (#ADHDGIRLY)

Thanks to her creativity and craving for variety, our products include new & used books and bookish merchandise as well as handmade art and custom crochet products.

 

Our mission is to celebrate love in its many forms,

provide a welcoming space for lovers of romance,

and focus on uplifting and empowering all Women,

the LGBTQ+ community, and other marginalized groups.​
