What is Trove?
Trove is a different kind of bookstore.
We’re an e-commerce startup offering readers brand-new, hardcover books for rent.
Here’s our value proposition — receive a new hardcover book at a lower price than anywhere else, even the big guys, with the option to return it or keep it and pay the full price.
Oh, and we’re independent.
How we work
Better than your library.
Brand new books can be bought outright, like anywhere else, or they can be rented for 30 days for each copy at a reduced price. You can access a new hardcover book for the lowest option and choose to either return it within a 30 days or keep it and pay the full price of the book.
Rental periods are 30 days for every book rented, with a maximum rental window of 90 days. So if you get three or more books, you have 90 days to return them all.
Books that are not returned are charged the full retail price to consumers plus tax.
Why shop with Trove?
We want to give a new way for readers to engage with new books.
Trove seeks to revolutionize how readers engage with new releases — while also making book buying more affordable and accessible.
We’re new, so feel free to provide us with feedback on how we can do better.
