Welcome Prose loving Besties!

Prose Before Bros is the creation of two friends who share a passion for reading and decided to channel their love for books into designing.

We've created book inspired items that we want to have in our own closets and thought it would be fun to share them with you too!

We love working with authors (especially indie authors!) to create exciting designs to celebrate their work.

We value the sense of intimacy that niche products bring, as it allows book lovers to connect on a deeper level and celebrate their shared love for literature.

In other words, in an effort to pass Kyla's business class, have a seemingly-professional reason to stalk/get close to authors we love and to stuff our closets full of literary designs celebrating the books we love. . . We started Prose Before Bros.

Hit us up for some pretty fly bookish merch.

I fell into reading only a couple years ago and it has totally transformed my life. It has allowed me to have more gratitude for my own life and compassion for others.

I've also found great purpose in connecting with other readers and supporting amazing authors.

This love has evolved into creating designs that celebrate books and authors I love.

My ultimate love language is inside-jokes. Creating niche designs for niche communities of readers and authors is such a thrill for me. It's a complete honor to be in this space with y'all.

I believe in the power that stories have to change lives. Reading has always been a way for me to escape.

I have learned so many valuable lessons from the books I've read.

I want to share my love of reading with the world and what better way to do that than by creating products to obsess about books with others.
