Pull up a chair—we're going to talk about books.
I’m Ambre Sautter, founder of Reshelving Alexandria, a community dedicated to helping families build thoughtful home libraries that will be loved for generations.
I’ve been an obsessive reader for as long as I can remember, but my passion eventually grew beyond collecting books to curating them. In 2017, I started Reshelving Alexandria to help others discover books that are not only beautifully written, but worthy of returning to again and again.
As a homeschooling mother of five, I’ve spent years reading, evaluating, cataloging, and discussing thousands of books. Along the way, I’ve learned that building a meaningful library isn’t about owning the most books—it’s about choosing the right ones.
I’m also the founder of Renewed Books, Reshelving Alexandria’s publishing imprint, where we bring forgotten treasures back into print and publish new works that share the same commitment to books that are good, true, and beautiful.
Whether I’m curating reading lists, hosting book discussions, or helping someone find the perfect next read, my goal is always the same: to help you build a library that nourishes both mind and soul.
Welcome. I’m glad you’re here.
