At Sarasavi Book Shop, we pride ourselves on being more than just a store—we are a community hub for book lovers across Sri Lanka. As the number one bookshop in the country, with over 30 branches islandwide, Sarasavi has become a cornerstone for readers, offering not only a vast selection of books but also a space for inspiration, connection, and learning. Our mission goes beyond providing books; we aim to foster a sense of belonging and to build a community that celebrates the power of reading.
A Hub for Connection and Discovery
When you walk into any Sarasavi Book Shop branch, you are greeted by more than just rows of books. It’s a place where stories come alive and where like-minded individuals can gather to share their love of literature. Whether you are exploring the latest bestsellers, searching for a classic, or discovering hidden gems, Sarasavi offers a space for connection. It’s where readers from all walks of life can come together to exchange ideas, recommend books, and even meet their favorite authors.
The true essence of a bookshop lies in its ability to bring people together, creating a space for dialogue and shared experiences. At Sarasavi, we understand that reading is not a solitary pursuit—it’s a community experience that thrives when people come together to discuss, critique, and celebrate books.
More Than Just Shopping—It’s an Experience
While many view a bookshop as simply a place to buy books, at Sarasavi, we’ve made it a place where people can immerse themselves in the joy of reading. Our well-curated events, book launches, and author meet-and-greets are just a few examples of how we create a dynamic environment for our customers. It’s where you can find inspiration beyond the pages—whether it’s through a book club discussion, a writing workshop, or discovering new genres that you never thought you’d enjoy.
Building a Community Through Shared Passion
Being the largest and most trusted bookshop in Sri Lanka, Sarasavi has the unique ability to create a sense of community among readers. With over 30 branches across the island, we have built a network where individuals can connect over a shared passion for books. Whether you’re in Colombo, Kandy, Galle, or any of our other branches, you’ll find that the Sarasavi spirit is the same—welcoming, warm, and dedicated to promoting a love of reading.
Our commitment to fostering this sense of community extends to our online platforms as well, where we engage with readers through social media, newsletters, and forums. We provide book recommendations, hold giveaways, and create spaces for readers to share their thoughts and experiences. At Sarasavi, we aim to make reading accessible, enjoyable, and communal, no matter where you are in Sri Lanka.
Supporting Local Writers and Literature
Another key aspect of building a community of readers is supporting local authors and promoting Sri Lankan literature. Sarasavi takes pride in offering a platform for emerging and established Sri Lankan authors, helping them reach a wider audience. By supporting local literature, we not only enrich our readers’ experiences but also contribute to the growth of the literary community in Sri Lanka.

Sarasavi Book Shop is more than just a place to buy books—it’s a community hub for readers to discover new ideas, share their passion, and find connection with others who love literature. As the number one bookshop in Sri Lanka with over 30 branches, we continue to lead the way in fostering a culture of reading and building a supportive and vibrant community for book lovers.
